| I don’t understand why the church can’t just accept evolution and claim that God’s responsible for it. I suppose they would say the Bible contradicts it, but it’s not like the church has ever had a problem ignoring the parts of the Bible they don’t like. This "the church" you speak of. The one with... |

| I think one has to have been baptized. But, there are those who say that infant Baptism is perfectly legitimate, and others who say that infant baptism is illegitimate--one has to be baptized as an adult, as Jesus was, and as (I think) followers of John the Baptist were and are. Baptism would seem ... |

| To help settle out the ongoing "no TRUE Christian" discussion. Obviously the last two can go in conjunction with most of the choices above; choose whichever is your primary measurement and explain if you would/do combine two options. |

| Haven't read anything by him in a while - I should again, though. The world of the Inklings (and their rough contemporaries, Waugh-Chesterton-Robert Benson) - is fascinating to me, esp. all the pre/post-war upheaval and changes in English society that they witnessed and wove into their writings. |
