In college I took a few religious studies classes in college (a little St. Augustine/Thomas Aquinas and a lot of buddhism/taoism). Also, I can make the time to post if there's a crunch.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4648300866401965494.post-86253795878062529252011-01-20T11:08:32.645-08:002011-01-20T11:08:32.645-08:00I am willing to contribute here and there.

I am a big fan of group blogs but i think you should do what you want to do. i think great discussion is happening in comments. <br /><br />if i am really honest, this is your project––thanks for letting us view the process but i lean towards you making the posts and letting us discuss in the comments.<br /><br />but it's your blog, you set the parameters.P.D.

(My "future projects", only one of which I've actually started.) I don't want to steal the idea, but I'd be open to guest essays/posts.<br /><br />Also, the website www.rejectionofpascalswager.net already has a wealth of information on similar topics.

Sure I can do that. My personal/work schedule can be wonky at times so I might be less valuable if you need impromptu fill-ins, but I could do it if I have a day or so heads up.<br /><br />It would be interesting if commenters from multiple points of view could write specific, in-depth articles.

Like we have just finished Genesis so maybe if a couple of different belief backgrounds write and tell their feelings of the text.Autumnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01154929552761090478noreply@blogger.com
