A Critical Look at The Bible
In my ongoing search for truth, I came across this website (banner link above). The author has written a book analyzing the disparity between what the Christian Bible says, and what our scientific knowledge tells us about our world and universe. It is available to read online, just click on banner link at the top of this post.
I am not finished reading this book myself, but I thought others might want to check it out for themselves. Although, I do not agree abosulutely with everything the author has to say, I do find he makes a lot of sense. (Edit – Sep 2: I should have said…He makes some good points.)

About Me
My most treasured value is my freedom. It is one I have been willing to die for. Without freedom, my life is not my own. Why should I live a life not my own?
I served 6 years active duty in the U.S. Army. I served between two wars – Vietnam and Desert Storm.
I have spent most of my life seeking truth. I am still looking and suspect I always will be…
I have a vision of this blog being a place where I can explore the “Devil’s Advocate” position on various topics and share my opinions (and where I get them). My hope is to help myself and others to develop skill in critical thinking.
I am not a scholar. If you are looking for scholarly debates and dissertations, please look elsewhere. I am merely a middle-aged woman on a quest. If you are interested in following my thinking, welcome.
Sometimes I make mistakes. I even make dumb ones at times. So, if you catch me in one, please do point it out. That is how I learn. If you find yourself with an opinion different from mine, by all means, tell me about it and explain why you think the way you do. That way, we can all learn.
In the interest of making fewer mistakes, Logic and Fallacies – Constructing a Logical Argument is a great resource.
It may take me awhile to find my voice, but this is a journey, right?
