Just had an artificially flavored coffee that was so bad it makes you ask God why he allows such evil into the world. So much for trying to be spontaneous. Going to stick with my usual from now on ☕️

Christian thought, from the outset, denies that (in themselves) suffering, death, and evil have any ultimate value or spiritual tual meaning at all. It claims that they are cosmic contingencies, ontological shadows, intrinsically devoid of substance or purpose, however much God may-under the conditions of a fallen order-make them the occasions for accomplishing his good ends.

#Calckey #Introduction 👋🏽

I am humbly (yet unapologetically) religious. I am also secular & spiritual! Not ordained, not a scholar, but a devoted student of christian scripture and theology.

My threefold goal here is to share my thoughts, socialize with people, and hopefully make a few internet friends.

Almost everything I write here and on my blog will orbit these subjects: #apokatastasis; #bible; #christianity; #DailyGospelReading; #God; #kerygma; #metaphysics; #religion; #spirituality; #stoicism; #theodicy; #theology. I fully understand the vast majority of people are not interested in these, but I am, and that's what I'll largely write about.

Politically and theologically, I am a progressive, albeit one that does not easily and uncritically brush tradition aside.

I’m a philosophy, religion, and theology nerd.

My goal here is to share my thoughts and socialize with people.

From time to time, I will share links to posts from my personal blog, usually to avoid posting long threads here.
