Category Image More about the books I read


The previous entry shows how controversial some books are.

But just to clarify, I am not as much stating my personal belief as I am stating my interests in occasionally reading controversial material. For example, I actually enjoy reading Ann Coulter. Or I used to.

In the comments I did make a couple of interesting statements about my philosophy of religion. An area that I'm constantly amazed about is the disagreement that some people of faith have with science. I don't think that needs to be true. The trick is to be flexible as your knowledge, and experiences, grow. I have many Mormon friends. I don't much care for a lot that the religion holds dear, but a few things I really admire. One thing I have come to admire about Mormons is that they honor and value intelligence. I'm not making a generalization that other religions exclude intelligence.

Something that I have said for many years is that Evolution does not have to be in disagreement with faith in a Higher Power. For example, I believe that Evolution is God's solution to Entropy. In fact, Evolution is the Intelligent Design.
