John 1 and Greek Thought

For the Easter 2009 edition of the Guardian Science Weekly podcast, Alok Jha discusses Christopher Potter's book, You Are Here: A Portable History of the Universe.

The "skeptical audience" to whom Alok Jha refers is those people who are skeptical of a materialistic explaination of the universe.

Christopher Potter's reply is fascinating and correlates strongly to John 1:1-18.



This exchange correlates closely to a comment I left on change.org in response to Damon Ballard recently. (Please note the high quality of Damon's reply!)

Fight the Good Fight

Living the Christian life is not all about functionalism. Sociology's conflict theories have value in helping a Christian interpret the world's events, too.

Paul reminds Timothy to "fight the good fight" against Hymenaeus and Alexander.

I wonder what it means to hand these two men over to Satan?
