Thanks for the listing, brother! I already caught your excellent interview on C2TC regarding prayer so I thought I’d try “A note about the argument that God is really a delusional instance of wish fulfillment.” Many of the presup articles are over my T-101 head but this one is right up my alley! Yeah, the God of the Bible is so unlike any kind of wish fulfillment fantasy that we would manufacture. We would imagine a god who rewards religious strivings and works. We would never imagine the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Thanks Tom for reading this roundup! I enjoyed that delusional argument post too! Did I miss your weekend post rounding up Catholic news this weekend or did you not post it? How is the paint work going? Answering your question: my Sunday was more exhausted than most Sundays, I’m tired with ministry and also emotionally spent with news in Afghanistan…
Hope you can recharge your batteries today! It was disconcerting watching the news today and seeing the thousands of Afghans crowding the Kabul airport and trying to force their way into/onto planes.
It was a hectic weekend so I posted the news as a post-weekend round-up this morning. I was busy with with the realtor over the weekend. My sister’s house was listed at $110K but after a short bidding war I accepted an offer of $150K on Friday! Hard to believe. That place was such a dump three months ago.
I finished cutting the lawn at 3:30 so the rest of the day is patio duty. Looking to finish the extremely boring book touting Catholic natural law this week.
The interview with Dr. Scott is helpful
Glad to hear that! They are worth subscribing too.
Glad they have so many ways to subscribe
I especially liked links 3 and 6.
Link 6 reminded me that we need to be courteous and rational. We should not scandal others through rudeness, deception or cursing to try to win an argument by force.
Link 3 made a good analogy that a shipwrecked person on a raft wishing for land does not imply that the shipwrecked person is delusional about land. Land does exist.
Agreed link 6 is convicting and challenging in a good way! A good analogy too! Hope you are doing well, been kind of down and praying a lot for Afghanistan…
Presuppositionalists is writing more than when I was in seminary
