What's My theological worldview? Well here it is...

Print this Article

The Observer, whose blog is Observations from the Side Aisle, had an interesting link to a religious survey...Here are my results:

You scored as Fundamentalist. You are a fundamentalist. You take the Bible as the foundation of your faith and read it very literally, and it shapes your worldview. Non-fundamentalist Christians have watered-down the Gospel in your view, and academic study of the Bible stops us from 'taking God at his word.' Science is opposed to faith, as it contradicts basic biblical truths.

This pretty much fits, since I totally believe in what the Bible says, not what anyone else says it says...Although I somewhat disagree with the summary. I don't think that all academic study stops us from 'taking God at his word', but rather academic study of the scriptures emphasizes what God is telling us. We should all research the Bible because, after all, the Bible has been translated and transliterated many times...Let us all go back to the original Hebrew and Greek to discover the true meaning of God's Word, not the 20th Century meaning.

More to come later...

Are you serious when you say that the Bible is God's word? Why not to choose the most reasonable path: a well written, complex, surely worth-reading book, but nothing more that this...........

Well marco, I am serious about what I said. The Bible is the inspired Word of God breathed by God and given to man to write. It IS well-written, complex and surely worth reading...and so much more!
