I can say that in my experience Francis Beckwith is one of the smartest guys I've had the pleasure to hear or read. He's a Law Professor and a serious Christian apologist. Though I haven't read it yet, I believe one can safely assume that this article is well reasoned and well researched. Lets see if it can be sucessfully critiqued.
Oh, really? See my #15 above. This "Christian Concept of God" is full of holes. Care to discuss/debate it?
Let's see if it can be sucessfully critiqued.
Yes, let's.
You invited us to "critique" the article and ideas found therein. If this "Christian Concept of God" does not hold water, shouldn't we expose its logical flaws so that they might be corrected?
This is a Religious forum where ideas can be discussed openly. If one can bring unique perspectives from a background in science, Buddhism, or even atheism, to the debate, should he not be allowed to do so? Or must everything that doesn't support your particular theology be expunged?
The Jews love to debate theology. It hones their thinking skills. Certainly, Christian doctrines can withstand the scrutiny of deep questioning. What are you so afraid of, P?
I know you are a lawyer, and that as such, you have to frame every debate so that you must win.
But in religious issues, it helps to have an open mind. That's how I first learned about Christianity. And that's the only way I can continue to learn more.
