Faith is Feelings

RE: Faith is Feelings
(February 19, 2021 at 12:12 pm)arewethereyet Wrote: A lot of people are in the religion of their parents. As for people who change their faith practice...seems to me not to be much of a leap in the case of one Christian denomination over another.

As for your question of how would you know if a supernatural visitor was god or something evil? I don't really see that as either/or. The god of the Bible did some pretty evil stuff.

That is true. I have seen a lot of apologetics regarding the nature of God and the sacrifice of Christ that involve ignoring crucial evidence of his nature or reframing a "might makes right" ethics to be the best option.
