Fundamenten van geloof 3: De Persoonlijkheid van God
Wanneer het voor ons eenmaal vaststaat dat er een Schepper is van alle leven, dan komt de vraag: ‘Wie is Hij dan?’ We hebben gezien dat Hij ‘een beloner is voor wie Hem ernstig zoeken’. Dit houdt noodzakelijkerwijs in dat Hij ieder mens moet zien en horen om te weten wie Hem ernstig zoeken. Het […]
Schepping, intelligent design, evolutie (3) – Godsbewijzen van heidense filosofen en horlogemakers
In deze aflevering wil ik eerst een zijweg inslaan, voordat we verder gaan met ‘Intelligent Design’. Aan de basis van deze hele discussie ligt namelijk de vraag of God bestaat. En die discussie hoort hier niet thuis! Thomas van Aquino In de 13e eeuw kwam Thomas van Aquino met zijn vijf ‘godsbewijzen’, filosofisch opgezette bewijzen, […]
Kler the Polish Spotlight on Poland’s Clergy Sexual Abuse
The oh so Catholic Poland now begins for many years later than our country to feel the consequences of the wrong attitude of the Catholic Church towards priests who abused young people. New research shows that church attendance starts going down very quickly now. The Polish church also for the first time has to pay […]
Fundamenten van het Geloof 2: De levende en waarachtige God
Gelooft u het getuigenis van God, zijn Zoon en zijn dienaren? De levende en waarachtige God Geloof richt zich op het niet-waarneembare, wetenschap houdt zich bezig met het aantoonbare. Dat er geen wetenschappelijk bewijs zou zijn voor het bestaan van God, wil nog niet zeggen dat Hij niet bestaat. God bestaat niet omdat wij dat […]
Schepping, intelligent design, evolutie – Ontstaan en ontwikkeling van het leven op aarde (2)
Bijbel en Wetenschap – Geloof en onderzoek – een wetenschappelijke benadering We hebben in het eerste deel van dit artikel al even gekeken naar de vermeende tegenstelling tussen schepping en evolutie, en daarbij geconstateerd dat het ene gaat over ontstaan en het andere over ontwikkeling. Maar wat zijn dan toch de punten die veel christenen […]
Torens waarvan de top tot in de hemel reikt
Het zal de meeste krantenlezers ontgaan zijn, maar wie de technische pers volgt, weet dat er al enkele jaren een race aan de gang is om het hoogste gebouw ter wereld te bezitten. Wij zijn ver weg van “Het Witte Huis” in Rotterdam dat rond 1900 met haar 43 meter hoogte het hoogste gebouw van […]
An Escape Mechanism
Originally posted on God does not believe in atheists:
The new Atheists quote Sigmund Freud, that God is a ‘wish fulfillment; a fictional father figure projected in the sky of our imagination and created by our desire for security.’ On this view, Heaven is an imaginary projection of our extinction and death. And religion is…Scientific Proof is Unproven
Originally posted on Panoptic Discourse:
One of the common misconceptions of science (that even those with science degrees fall prey to) is the idea of a “scientific proof.” Science is not in the business of “proving” theories (or laws). Anyone that says science has “proved” so and so in their discussions does not really understand…Finding the Messiah in Hebrew dictionaries – 1.

I’ll carry on with more about my trip round China shortly.

A. Amos Love searches for the the word “Church” in the Bible. Makes an interesting study. An interesting challenge.

Humility is a virtue asserted by every religion and every spiritual tradition and understood by very few. It’s something that was brought home to me recently by an exploration of the phenomenon of leadership. A leader, particularly one in a spiritual position, must live a paradox.

Het is niet altijd evident de juiste woorden te vinden. Je kan zeggen wat de meeste mensen zeggen of zwijgen zoals sommigen zwijgen. Je kan een rondje lopen om te ontlopen. Je kan woorden zoeken in boeken. Je kan ook aanbellen en er zijn. Luisteren naar verdriet of stilte. Kloppen op de donkere deur. Soep […]
Beginning of a festival of lights
Next Sunday is a double celebration. The Jewish people begin the Festival of Lights — Hanukkah, the Dedication of the Temple, and many Christians will light the first Advent candle in preparation for Christmas. The Winter-season started to give signs it is on its way. We did not get the Autumn storms, but temperatures went […]
