We've never needed Jesus more. This year, our first two children passed (miscarriage). Our heart is shredded into pieces, but I keep going back to Romans 8:18
“For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.”
We have a wonderful church family that has seen us through this. I pray every day that God do His will. We are finally allowed to start trying to get pregnant again (doctor's orders). I know He will deliver us through this and bless us with a big, beautiful family!
“You have turned my mourning into dancing for me;
You have untied my sackcloth and encircled me with joy,” Psalm 30:11.
Your faith is inspiring to me. I am so sorry to hear about your losses. I look forward to the day when I see the post that says, “Welcome our new baby pede!”. So glad you have a good church family, too. God bless you and your family.
Sargon recently hit on the point that Aristotelian values permeated Christian thought, and went out with the bathwater when religion was discarded. Hence why woke heroes turn out to be villains when viewed critically, the woke do not recognize or understand the virtues traditional characters embodied.
Ehh, Crusades were pretty good. Also, they did help many Europeans have food to eat and moralized the leaders of the countries, while telling others to respect his fellow man. They were barbaric, but the intentions were good and laid the framework for modern christianity. Don't forget about how they kept writings of medieval life, and helped to educate the population as much as possible.
All of the scientists of the earlier ages were God fearing men
Philosophy was born out of religion.
When you abandon your roots you best take care of what you replace them with.
Can confirm.
I was agnostic/atheist my whole life until I was baptized this January at 33 years old.
I am an astrophysicist and I love the LORD my God. Jesus, come back soon and deliver us from this broken world!
Welcome to the family! Thrilled to hear this!
Thank you! God is even more thrilled :)

Stay strong friend. Trust in Jesus. I
When Jesus in the Book of life wrote of our babies birth, He gently turned the page and said, "Too beautiful for earth."
We will hold them one day. It's just not as soon as we would like.
Prayers friend. God also knows what it's like to lose a child.

Welcome, brother/sister. I was just about to say this- real scientists are often Christian, because that's the only thing that makes any sense.
Agreed. I know four other Christian astrophysicists. We aren't the majority, but we exist.
I don't know much about astrophysics, but I know the beautiful complexity speaks of God's power. It must be an amazing insight.
Hey, everybody! I found the "real scientists"! Get a load of them, guys. Right here!
No it doesn't. This whole statement is riddled with fallacies. Deism makes sense. Christianity doesn't at all.
Why look at only some of the evidence? The universe says there is a God. The prophecies and witnesses say He came to us.
All things point towards the evidence of an intelligent creator.
Agreed!

The Fourth Age is an under-viewed channel that takes deep dive into this sort of thing.
Ah Sargon. Fount of ancient wisdom applicable in modern times.
I have my own views on the old Catholic Church. None of them good.
