Communism is about slavish acceptance of doctrine, Christians are all philosophers! We sit around in our church connection groups, discussing matters of the soul and spirit; morality and relationships; truth and language.
Much of Christianity is a philosophy of mysteries. There are many things that don’t show up in the material world, but are self evidently true nevertheless.
- Man has a soul? Of course he has a soul! He is a being composed of potentially infinite love and thought — he’s not a rock. That the term defies precise definition doesn’t make it untrue.
- Life is a gift of the spirit? Yes, life exists by rules utterly at odds with the material world. Even though the dull material containers it inhabits are known in incredible detail, life defies all explanation! What better word than ‘spirit’?
We deal with science and mathematics in our daily work, but these are the matters worthy of debating deep into the night! Find yourself a church with intelligent members and a good connection group programme. You’ll love it!
