My very best friend since we were about 17, Bill Pavuk, Godfather to Trevor, my second favorite Euchre partner (sorry Bill, Ron Round and I had a special connection when it came to Euchre), and Pastor of a small Lutheran church in rural Ohio, got me a book for my birthday. "Why Christian?...For those on the Edge of Faith", by Douglas John Hall. Bill wrote me a nice letter along with it, which I'll transcribe later, since it's flattering to me, and I like to be flattered. :)
I'll probably use the blog here to respond to some of the questions/answers that arise, since a few of you guys are also well versed in these issues, and will certainly provide some fruitful dialog.
The first issue raised by the Author extends from his opinion of one of Humanism's failures, and that is to address the "blinding challenges that life throws up at us..such as "How can I find Eternal Life?"" I stopped reading when he raised that to comment on it.
Now, I can honestly say that life has never thrown this question up at me. I know other people have. But life per se never did. I really have no interest in eternal life. I care about the life I have, and feel very deeply that it is only the inherent reality of life's end that gives it value at all. I see no value in eternal life. Indeed, I find the concept diminishes the importance of the life we know, often in the mere hope that another one awaits. This strikes me as foolish at it's core. Of the Tortoise and the Hare, which do you think would have bought into the idea?
I have a knee jerk response to the sociological importance of that question. They are by no means my primary reasons for my hostility towards the idea, but certainly have informed it. Perhaps it's my upbringing on the wrong side of tracks, or maybe my dalliances with Weber and Marx in my youth, but I can't help but think about who stands to gain from the idea of eternal life. Surely it was advantegeous throughout time for the leaders of any community to have the not-leaders concentrating on the next life, and not worrying too much about how fucked over they were getting in this one. As with most things, if you follow the money, this idea hardly seems one worth spending too much energy on.
