Hi from Eleazar

Hi from Eleazar
Hi folks, I'm a Christian from the UK, brought up in the Church of England by my mum, and now still an Anglican despite a few twists and turns along the way. I'm here to find out what makes you tick, have some serious discussion about the different views we hold and have some fun getting to know you. Smile Eleazar's not my real name, but it's related to my avatar (Cookie available for anyone who can spot the connection!). My main interests are theology and philosophy, though I have a Maths degree which allows me to be somewhat conversant with scientific matters. I love reading (I'm currently working my way through the thoroughly-recommendable OUP Very Short Introductions to Hume, Kant, Russell, etc.), chess, eclectic music and poetry and a decent pint! Cheers!

Sugar crickets make me tick. No, you may not eat them.

I will hold my welcome for the nonce. Your claim is a common one from the apologists we get here, but rarely true


If you truly come with an open mind,you are welcome.

There's no evidence for any of the gods invented by men throughout history. That's about all there is to it.

We can't hold our noses and pretend to believe in bullshit.


Welcome.

Welcome to the forums, feel free to jump into any conversation you like.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
