Selah Posted July 30, 2009 Posted July 30, 2009 Is the right one? Just curious to see what people say. Is it because of the Bible? Church teaching? History? Personal experience? Let me know!
Hassan Posted July 30, 2009 Posted July 30, 2009 I had something annoying to say implying that TTM was responsible for my current religious views. But then I remembered she's away. I don't have anyone to annoy Except Peyton on Facebook

Catholicism is the monotheistic religion whose supernatural origins can be proved.[/quote] Vatican I condemned Fideism. But if a Catholic assented intellectually to the idea that monotheism can be proven through natural reason but did not accept any particular proof as sound could they supplement this faith through an existentialist approach to Christianity?
Selah Posted July 30, 2009 Author Posted July 30, 2009 [quote]Monotheism can be proved through natural reason. Revealed religion is necessary.

Selah if you are having doubts and want to hold onto your faith you should read this interesting book on the ontological argument I found not to long ago. If you are interested let me know and I'll hunt down the title.
