In the Scriptures, taking your shoes off had a very special meaning. When Moses had his first confrontation with God at the burning bush, God told him to take off his shoes because he was standing on holy ground. Jesus walked barefoot to Calvary. In the culture of that time, being unshod was the sign that you were a slave. A slave had no rights. Jesus gave us the supreme example of giving up everything for a great goal. Loren Cunningham “Making Jesus Lord" / Marc 8:34,35

Richard Dawkins bad debate

I was watching Richard Dawkins debate with Wendy Wright. Man, I felt so bad for him. It was really embarrassing. Dawkins is well known for been a bad philosopher and a bad debater, but he could do a better job than he did. He went to ask her where did she study science! What does that have to do with it? If you study science here your believes are true. If you studied there, than is not true. Bad reasoning.
Dawkins believe that science is the only way to know the true. But that statement is not a scientific one, it's a philosophical one. And he totally ignore that science works on paradigm. Sometimes it's a true paradigm, sometimes it's a false one. Science depends a lot on other fields of knowledge in order to find out if the current paradigm is true. The ether story is a good example.
So, if you too want to fell bad for Dawkins, just watch the debate below.

Make me a happier blogger. Comment here!
But there are some rules. First no profanity, no name calling and try to be as respectful as possible. Attack the ideas, not the man (or the woman).
This is a Christian blog so God and Jesus should always be capitalized.
And remember that I have no moral obligation to answer to comments, specially those made with fake profiles.
Besides those simple rules, enjoy it!
