A ‘True Fundamentalist’
Dear Readers,
I have been labeled a ‘true fundamentalist’ by Simen of import Mind.Reason.
Simen mocked me and laughed at me in his post, but who cares. I am quite honored to be considered a ‘true fundamentalist.’ That means I am truly living the faith, and others know where I stand.
Thank you very much Simen.
*bows*
Sincerely,
-Brian Purkiss

So I read… Good job. :-D

I see what you are saying, but wasn’t Simen correct, in fact? Isn’t equating God and reason like comparing apples to oranges, since (in this context) “God” refers to a source of knowledge, and “reason” refers to a specific method of obtaining knowledge?
Cassidy, I would argue that God is a specific method of obtaining knowledge.
If I analyze everything through God, I am following His will.
I am also using God as I would use reason.
Ultimately I’d rather use God rather than reason. Since I’m human, my reasoning can be messed up from time to time. God on the other hand cannot be ‘messed up.’
If I use God to obtain knowledge, than I can’t go wrong.
But using God all the time is the hard part.
Now THAT’s a title that makes me want to put your blog in my favorites list. *pause* There, now. Nicely placed four names below the Rebelution. ;)
By God’s grace a “true fundamentalist” with you,
Abigail :)
Thank you very much Abigail.
I’m honored to be on your favorites list.
Ha, ha—yes, very great honor. ;)
