I am going to blog my way through Timothy Keller's book The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism. It was given to me by a friend over this last weekend.
A shallow and inaccurate analogy of my belief in god would be a Guitar Hero rock meter. The middle being totally Agnostic, the left being Agnostic Atheist and the right being Agnostic Christian. I think everyone is an Agnostic when it come to god, but the meter being which world view you subscribe to most in your everyday life. That could be wrong if you could prove belief in god was a priori and not a posteriori.
Anyways, I think where my 'meter' is at prompted the gift. I appreciate a gift, so intend to be diligent to the givers intent. I plan to read through the book, then re-read it, posting an entry after each chapter. This should help me understand what the author intended overall, and digest that before responding in a positive or negative manner.
Comments as I go through the book are more than welcome. I am off to read, should have the first post up in a day or two.
Cheers.
Found it. This should be interesting, looking forward to your "review"!
