I just finished reading "Case for a Creator." It explores scientific evidence about the existence of God, and I highly recommend it, even if it does have certain contradictions with what we've been taught in school. Now I'm a little curious about the debate between a young earth and an ancient earth, because it seemed that every scientist ( Read more... )

Thanks everyone. This morning I had thought about getting rid of this post because it felt like the ravings of a lunatic. But...that's who I am I guess. I feel a lot better today, and even better still because of your comments :). Thanks for taking time to tell me. Thanks.

we all sin. Jesus died for that. we all repeat our sins. Jesus died for that too! Do you remember in personal faith when mrs. s was talking about dragging yourself back to the altar (to be a living sacrifice) time and again? sometimes it feels like that's all you're doing, and you keep straying, but God knows that and He loves you still--in fact, He didn't come for the "healthy", but for those of us desperately in need of a Savior. it's pretty darn amazing when you think about it. The book of Hosea touches on that, if you want to check that out. one of the main themes is how God's love and forgiveness goes way beyond our understanding.

I recognize the fact that God's forgiveness is beyond me, and I intellectually realize that He does continually forgive me. But thats still very much different from forgiving myself, or even resolving it. I am thankful for God's forgiveness, but I feel that if I forgive myself, I'm taking it for granted, and I'd rather have inner turmoil than reject forgiveness. Maybe I'm just mentally befuddled right now. With little sources of stimulus from school, maybe my brain has just kept its foot on the gas.
