I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use. -- Galileo Galilei

About me: My regular web page is at http://www.faith202.com/
I am a Christian that values the life of the mind as well as the life of the soul. Unlike allot of Christians I know I have read the entire Bible, I don't believe that Science is the opposite to Christianity. I love studying philosophy, and theology, and do my best to study science even though I am not longer in school, and I don't need it in my day to day life. I just enjoy it. Science to me is like having a window to God I can understand more about him by learning about his creation.
Who I'd like to meet: The people who inspired me to be the person I am to
Greg Koukl and the people of Stand to Reason http://www.str.org
and
Hugh Ross and the people of Reasons to Believe at http://www.reasons.org/
While I set off on the journey of investigating Christianity on my own I am not sure I was intelligent enough to give my investigation the care it deserved without the help of their voices on my computer every week.
They inspired me to become a better thinker, be more curious about the universe outside my own little bubble, and they encouraged me to be bold in my faith when most of the people around me were trying to weaken it. Because of their influence I love to learn, and I am able to fight against the pockets of agnosticism that all must face at some point in their life.
I would love to say a big thank you to all of these folks in person, if not here on earth one day in Heaven.
