What God Is:
If you wish to show that the Bible disagrees with my position or its defense, I ask that before you send mail you see my treatment of your verses in my page on the Bible's "Errors".

Or if you wish to show philosophically that God is not as I argue, I ask that you first see my argument for God's Existence, including my replies to common objections to the conclusion, the short arguments of Epictetus, and the bit on faith and reason.

I get so much email, I must request these things. Have you done what I requested? Yes. No.

Trinity and Monotheism:
Before you email me, I must would you read at least my main treatment of it, and (if you know the truth of the Old Testament) the excerpts from St. Justin's Dialogue with Trypho the Jew.

If you are Muslim, your Koran is in many places similar to the Old Testament. I recommend reading the above to you also, along with my short essay on faith and reason. It will be relevant to our discussion.

Is God Good or Evil?
If the problem is that you or a loved one is experiencing evil, the Church on the net is here to do what we can. First, I recommend posting a public prayer request. Then answer "yes" to the question not far below. Remember that in the light of Christ's resurrection and our future resurrection, even death is made to be only a short sleep by God. We will be resurrected and the virtuous will be reunited for eternity.

Or if you wish to explore or debate this topic philosophically, I look forward to it. I shall try to convince you through reason that things are not so bad. But first I ask that you make sure you save us both time by reading a few of Epictetus' thoughts on evil and God (selected for this site) and my short essay on faith and reason. That is not too much.

I get so much email, I must request these things. Have you done what I requested? Yes. No.

Other Religions:
I stand to learn the most from these emails.

Whichever religion you believe in, before you email me, please see what replies I may already have available to you, in my work on faith and reason, my proof for God's existence, the few paragraphs of Epictetus on evil, and the reasoning about what God is like.

If you are Jewish or Muslim, I ask also that you read what I have made available for you here from St. Justin Martyr's Dialogue With Trypho the Jew.

I get so much email, I must request these things. Have you done what I requested? Yes. No.

Faith and Reason:
If you wish to discuss this matter in regards to a specific issue, such as the ethics of abortion, immoral priests proclaiming true and holy doctrine, or the theory of evolution, please check out my Current Issues Menu and Menu of History's Evils and go from there.

Before we discuss the matter generally, would you read what I made available in terms of my general treatment, Chesterton's wisdom on Christianity's Paradoxes, and my blurb about evil clergy.

I get so much email, I must request these things. Have you done what I requested? Yes. No.

Biblical Contradictions:
If you need help with a verse, please make sure that the topic of that verse is not one of the topics already listed in the section following the introduction in my page on Biblical "errors."

I look forward to hearing from you! Please click here to continue.

Histories of Prehistory:
Please remember that what G.K. Chesterton speaks of here is not all histories of prehistories, merely some of the prevelant secular histories of it which ought to be rejected.

If you are writing to me to tell me that the Bible is inaccurate on the length and nature of prehistory, you are misunderstanding what truths the Bible actually wishes to make. Please see my article on Biblical "Errors" down to the part about Genesis chapters 1 and 2.

I get so much email, I must request these things. Have you done what I requested? Yes. No.

Thanks.
