I was telling my daughter a bed-time story and mentioned that Jesus promised to come back for us. She said, "what do you mean; coming back?
|
I explained to her;
.. Jesus said, "Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. 2In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.."
John 14:1-3 >> King James Version
Her reply: "Well, there's a lot of different versions of the Bible. So .... "
My daughter is nine years old. And so her questioning the authenticity of the Bible? I'm reminded of a piece of the definition for Secular Humanism which teaches: ..no specific theory of morality or code of ethics. Secular Humanism affirms that with scientific knowledge. Moral and or ethical standards through Islam, or Christianity are unreasonable."

If we doubt the validity of the Holy Bible, and the validity of religion in general, and the validity of God in particular.. well .. we might as well go on in our search for primitive-life-forms on far-away planets because; that's how humans were made.. right? It has been "thoroughly examined" .. in theory .. and we believe in theory .. right? ..
Where is my daughter learning Secular Humanism? "Fundamental to the concept of Secular Humanism is the strongly held belief that ideology — be it religious or political — must be thoroughly examined by each individual and not simply accepted or rejected on faith."
