God Facts

There's an amusing website out there called, "Chuck Norris Facts" (www.chucknorrisfacts.com). It's a funny take on the martial arts legend (and Christian), Chuck Norris. The site is fully of humorous claims about Norris that go way over the top and make him into a sort of deity figure. Some examples:

"Chuck Norris counted to infinity -- twice."
"Chuck Norris doesn't wear a watch -- HE decides what time it is."
"When Chuck Norris does a pushup, he isn't pushing himself up, he's pushing the earth down."


What's interesting is that we can make many outstanding, seemingly impossible claims about the God of the Bible. But, of course, this doesn't count as humor, just good theology. Here's my attempt:

"God doesn't act according to a moral code; He simply acts and it is morally good."
"God spoke and the universe was."
"God can exist at no time." (timeless)
"God can exist nowhere." (spaceless)
"God lived through His own death."
"God is perfect yet not proud of it." (humble)

Debate with Krueger

I'm sheduled to participate in an online debate with atheist philosopher, Doug Krueger some time this June. It will probably be hosted by www.infidels.org and will cover the topic: Theism vs. Atheism: Where Does the Evidence Point?

Krueger is a Phd. candidate in philosophy and author of the book, What is Atheism?: A Short Introduction.

Christians: please pray for me.
