    Can Self-Identification Be Incorrect?

    Look at this: Should one's gender identity be recognized and (legally) accepted by others, if it contradicts reality? If so, is gender the only trait that someone can deny or change at will? What about height? Weight? Race? Age? Species? Is it possible for someone to incorrectly identify...

    Is Perspecuity Necessary for Sola Scriptura?

    For sola scriptura to be true, must Scripture be perspicuous? My immediate instinct would be "yes," Scripture must be clear to the average reader in order for It to be used as the sole or final determination of all doctrine and practice. It seems we couldn't rely on sola scriptura, if...

    Openly Practicing Gluttons

    I have heard of Catholic priests denying communion to people who openly practice sinful lifestyles that contradict Church teaching. A "married" gay man is considered to be not in communion with the Church. I assume an unrepentant thief who continues to mug people would be denied communion. A...

    Chiaroscuro

    Shine a light on a wall. Hold your finger close to the wall; the shadow will be distinct and well defined. As you move your finger away from the wall, toward the light, the shadow changes in two ways. It begins to spread out evenly in all directions. It begins to dissipate. God is the light...

    Sexual Orientation is not a Choice

    Sexual orientation can't be chosen, because sexual orientation does not exist. The concept wasn't even invented until relatively recently. Partner preferences do exist.
