Theodicy and Politics
Byhenry November 17, 2008
This is another brief thought. As I was thinking about politics I also considered some of the questions that come up in theodicy. In politics, many of us look for protection from risk, from the consequences of our own actions. It seems to me that in theodicy many people prevent “consequences” as an example of…

Plantinga on The God Delusion
Byhenry February 28, 2007

Now I must be frank (well, no, I don’t have to, but I will!) and say that I find philosophers provide the most annoying of reading. They seem to me to be the world’s best rationalizers, providing excellent reasons…

Law and Laws in Scripture
Byhenry November 28, 2024December 22, 2024
In my current series on Psalm 119, I’m doing a daily meditation on each verse. These are, by design, short. At the same time, it’s difficult to cover certain nuances effectively in individual posts. One of these is the question of why I would write this particular series. I’ve already included my video on the…
