I have known those types for sure. But where does the line get drawn. Aren’t bible studies philosophy? Stories and parables that provide a frame for how to exist rightly in the world are everywhere
Discussion
What do you mean by Bible studies? People who speak about the Bible? Or the Bible itself?
I would say the Bible, and people talking about its content would constitute philosophizing. Wouldn’t you?
Yes. The Bible 100% fits my description. Pointless drivel that spouts ideas and nonsense to try and control a populace without using violence.
Excellent! But then what do we do? We couldn’t possibly be a bunch of faithless anarchists!? Or could we?
I still think the question amongst a community group to ask, “Why are we here and What are we doing” is still an important one.
Been faithless my whole life. Never seemed to be an issue.
I literally never think about or care why I am here or what we are doing.
Not once? Do you have children?
Nope, never that I can remember. Yes, I have a family
Fascinating. Perhaps you had a loving, stable and supportive family growing up? Something too many lack.
I must know what makes one so confident and content. Haha
