“One of them Got Better”
Recently Dr. Horton responded to Bill O’Reilly’s statements about Christianity not being a religion but a philosophy (see A Dangerous Christmas). This past Monday it almost seemed as if Jon Stewart of The Daily Show had read Dr. Horton’s post because he correctly understands the truth claims of Christianity that need to be believed concerning Christ being true God as well as the fact that Christ rose from the dead, ascended to the right hand of the Father, and is coming again to judge the living and the dead. Stewart even admits that though he knows these central doctrines of the Christian Faith and could “pass the philosophy test,” he does not trust in Christ and therefore, “doesn’t get to go to the afterparty.”

Bill O’Reilly, like most of the talking heads, lets his arguments get ahead of his brain. I think what he was trying to get at, is the State can show respect and even a preference for the Christian religion, without persecuting or showing intolerance toward other religions.
I wish we could get back to the ideal of Christian tolerance–without being bamboozled into the intolerance (and impossibility) of multiculturalism.

Developer of modern thought…..verses the Son of God.
The Socratic Method……aaaaaand Easter.
What’s the issue again???
