  by Rev. David Safford, D.D. March 26, 2015
  I recently debated with an Atheist relative who used a variation of the "Russel's Teapot" argument to illistrate the lunacy of believing in a diety.

• Love Thy Enemies

  by Rev. David Safford, D.D. July 30, 2014
  Let me first preface this by giving a little background. I am NOT a realist. I am an Idealist-Technocrat-PseudoIntellectual with a love for History, Religion, Mankind, and the World itself. I'm not on the same wavelength as many people, and my words can be easily misconstrued. That being said, pleas...
