About? What an interesting word…
I suppose the point of this page is to tell you about me, and so I will!
My name is Spencer Daniels B. Most everyone you ask would tell you I’m a good person, a church-going Christian; someone who doesn’t use drugs or foul language. And yes, I am. But what many people don’t know about me, something that I will tell you now, is that I am a thinking person. I think about Christianity everyday and have been for years. I try to think it all through. I question it, every little detail. And the details, oh the details are so many.
I continue to question it. I challenge it. Put it to the test. I refuse to let that decision (to become a Christian) blind me from the truth, that is, if Christianity isn’t the truth. I do not care what my parents taught me, I do not care what the preacher says, I do not care what the Bible says, I do not care what my friends say – if they are not right; if what they say isn’t the absolute truth. I will find out if they are right or not. I’m on the fence. I’m commited to find out which side of the fence I should fall on – or just burn the fence and create my own field. Who knows. I’ll know – one day, I hope.
Maybe you can help me.

I stumbled on your blog and am glad that you are taking the time to think through your face. Here’s a question I have after reading your About? page: Do you believe that absolute truth exists? Who determines what absolute truth is, you or God?
I’m a seminary student who just took a class on this and really had to wrap my head around this topic. I just wanted to throw those questions out there for you to think about because your last paragraph says you don’t care what the Bible says (God’s Word to us) unless it is the absolute truth. So I wonder who you think determines absolute truth?

Absolute truth exists.
I know the “nice” response to the question of who determines absolute truth is “God” or something like that.
Something obviously determines absolute truth, like laws. Mathmatical laws tell us that 2 + 2 always equals 4 (an absolute truth). So where did these laws come from? Hmmm….the “Law Maker” = God?
Maybe.
I’m tossing around the idea of deism and how it really seems the most reasonable thing to believe.
