Discussion at Speaking of History

In the class I am taking for college, History of Christianity, there are some very interesting thoughts and comments that come up. I have put some of them on my other blog Speaking of History.

Granted the topics are touchy for some but if we are strong in our beliefs discussing a topic will not sway us. However, some are unsure or confused may benefit. I would really recommend reading Church History in Plain Language by Dr. Bruce Shelley. One reviewer slams Shelley for using the word "afraid", I believe, on amazon.com with the argument that Jesus could not, or would not, feel such a sinful human trait. However, and this is just a side note, I see no reason why Jesus would not feel all that we as humans feel or how could it be said that he has been where we are, he knows what we are going through? He has experienced all that we have experienced and so he knows what we need.

Anyway, if anyone should want to read a bit of my other blog...the link's up there :)
