Well, it's been a hell of a ride, laying rubber all over the road for the past decade. But it's time to call it a day and park the Rogue in the garage. Effective today, I am shutting down my blog to focus my attention on other endeavours. My thanks to the more than 2.7 million people who regularly joined me on these sojourns through news stories over the years that dealt with the places with issues of religion and faith intersecting with public affairs. May God bless you with a continuing desire to learn about and help disseminate the issues of faith throughout the public square. Happy trails in your continuing travels! Fr. Tim Moyle, p.p. Diocese of Pembroke
Reflections from the pastoral ministry of an Evangelical Catholic Priest.
There is no question that Christians and universities founded by Christians in the West played a major role in the foundation of modern science (which I date to the experimental techniques of Bacon and Galileo) but increasingly the practitioners of science are non Christian or people of no religion.
ReplyDeleteIf every book and every bit of knowledge were to be wiped off the Earth, give humans a few thousand years and we'd have the atomic theory again, the concept of evolution and gravity, but the story of the talking snake in the garden would be gone.
Rationalis1, you mean Eve would not be listening? And NO ORIGINAL SIN? GREAT, that would be good news for humankind.
ReplyDeleteHave a good day!
