<h3>Murder Mystery, Theological Debates, Faith and Reason</h3>
</center><p>
Welcome. The soul needs to live, and it needs to reason to inform
it of which faith is right. Explore the greatest questions: Does God Exist?
Why does God let evil happen? What religion is right? What of "Biblical
Contradictions" or other apparent errors in Sacred Scripture?
Is abortion ethical? Do sexual ethics exist? Can anyone be a priest?
Who? What about St. Paul and subjection in marriage?
What good answers to the debates on world hunger, depression and other
current issues does the Church have to offer?
<p>We are not about boredom: to adapt a saying of Chesterton, the
virtue of this site has all the exhileration of vice! Perfect virtue. Join us
in the debate; join mankind of history, for you, mortal man,
approach eternity.
