Early Church Heresies
Can you name any heresies in the first few centuries of Christianity and what they believed (in a nutshell)?
A few are:
- Marcianism: believed that God in the New Testament was different from God in the Old Testament because their behavior was not reconcilable.
- Gnosticism: believed in esoteric knowledge held

What is necessary for Catholic/Protestant unification?
We've talked about this a while ago, but there are two fundamental questions regarding Catholic/Protestant churches:
- Should they be brought into unity?
- What would it take to make this happen?

Was Jesus a Pharisee?
I didn't realize that there was a question of whether Christ was a Pharisee. Reasons for this would be that they were centered in Christ's native Galilee, and He is also referred to as "Rabbi", which was a word which Pharisees called those within their ranks who were experts of the law.

Does a Religious Upbringing Promote Generosity or Not?
It appears that an article from 2015, in which a researcher claimed that data supported the idea that religious upbringing led to kids being less kind than non-religious kids, has been retracted because the data on which
How should Christians react to extraterrestrial intelligent life?
What would happen if we ever encountered intelligent alien life? Would it change people's views on Christianity or Christ's redeeming plan? I am pretty confident that first contact would cause one of the most massive developments of theological literature the world has ever seen.
In any case, this

Making pro sports better
I've been learning more about soccer leagues over in Europe recently and how they are different from American professional sports leagues. In particular, the English Premiere League is made up of something like 20 teams, and the lowest-performing teams in the league get demoted to B-league status, while

The Epiphany
We celebrated the Epiphany a few days ago, commemorating the arrival of the three wise men in Bethlehem and their giving of gifts to the Christ Child. The gifts, of course, were gold, frankincense, and Myrrh. I read a commentary on this that (if I remember correctly) said gold was essentially a gift

There's an article that was published today about Jeff Bezos:

They figured that when you combine Bezos' salary and benefits, along with his monstrous gains made through Amazon stock gains in 2018, his earnings-per-minute ranged from a low of about

Are Twitter Ads good for companies?
Companies can use Twitter to engage with users in both macro and micro-oriented ways. While creating posts allows users to see what you say if they follow you or specifically find you in a search, Twitter Ads allows companies to inject their tweets into other users' timelines as "Promoted" tweets.

What has been the most racially/ethnically diverse part of the world?
I was thinking today about how racial/ethnic integration is a relatively modern thing in general. Historically, while you might have seen the occasional dark-skinned African person traveling through Europe (I recently read a reference to this happening during the reign of Frederick II), for the most

Kavanaugh Confirmation
This has been one of the most contentious times in recent political memory. It feels like Vietnam between the left and the right; both sides battling it out over one man. The left attacking him with its arsenal of weapons, most likely because of abortion and what they fear could come in the future.

Infalibility
Do all Christians (not just Catholics) believe in the idea of infallibility?
For Catholics, the Pope speaks infallibly in certain situations, though this is obviously rejected by Protestants. But both Catholics and Protestants agree on a different area of infallibility, which is the writers of Scripture.
