Here ye, here ye! This meeting of the Church of the Infinite Chasm is fixin’ to commence. As usual, our mission here is to gently offer people who believe in evolution food for thought that calls into question belief in their doctrine. We believe there is not only an unbridgeable chasm between creation and evolution; we also believe there is …

Church of the Infinite Chasm

I’d like to attempt to make a basic point today on the heels of last week’s sermonette. You can read it if you wish by scrolling down to the post below dated January 5, but it’s not necessary to the argument I’m about to make. And I’ll also state in advance, this is not a smoking gun that refutes the …

Church of the Infinite Chasm

I’ve talked to many people over the years who are atheists, and if you’re looking for that sort of thing (as I sometimes am), you can encounter a lot more of them on this Interweb thing. One of the most common themes is, “If there was a god, and if he was the loving god you seem to think he …

Church of the Infinite Chasm

…is now in session! A few regular readers have commented that, if this is a weekly post devoted to establishing arguments in favor of creation (as opposed to evolution) – which it is, indeed – then the scarcity of scriptural references here is puzzling. Point taken. My rebuttal: the primary audience for these sermonettes would most likely be people who …

Church of the Infinite Chasm

I’d like to harken back for a moment to last week’s reference to Jaclyn Glenn and the many excellent points she makes in her YouTube messages (which are pro-atheism and anti-Christian). If I could summarize one of her main themes, this would be it: “The best argument against Christianity is Christians.” In my humble opinion, she nails it in those …

Church of the Infinite Chasm

This past week I ran across someone who is surely one of the most articulate advocates of atheism on the planet, one Jaclyn Glenn. She is an astute observer of lots of stuff: she is in med school, so science is on her radar screen, as is Christianity, her former religion and the religion still practiced by her family; and …

Church of the Infinite Chasm

WE GET LETTERS It occurred to us after using Mrs. Gladys Bundlebee’s letter in last week’s post that we should do this more often. On that note, here’s another note, this one from Miss Genevieve Jones of Chilicothe, Ohio. She writes: Dear Church of the Infinite Chasm, I appreciate your attempts to appeal to reason. I must do the same. …

Church of the Infinite Chasm

We get hundreds of letters each week. We picked a typical letter from the mailbag this week. It comes from Mrs. Gladys Bundlebee of Brownsville, Texas. Obviously she’s one happenin’ granny. She writes, “Dear Church of the Infinite Chasm: I love your name. Where did you come up with such a clever name? Sincerely, Gladys Bundlebee.” Thank you for asking, …

Church of the Infinite Chasm

When contemplating the whole creation versus evolution debate, I sometimes think a good argument in favor of creation is that faith in a creator is harmless. A person could reason, “If there is a God, I’m covered. And if there is no God, no harm, no foul.” That’s pretty shallow reasoning, actually, but it’s also begging to be attacked: belief …
