Most of my online activity now happens over at Life After God, including the podcast. Here are one or two highlights if you haven’t heard the podcast yet.

Whenever a theologian talks about how beautiful it is that Christ came to earth and died, not to appease God’s wrath, but instead, as the image of God who suffers with us, even to the point of death on the cross, I imagine that, if it were real, it [&#8230;]]]></description>

I have thrilled in the past few days to read Philip Kitcher’s new book, [&#8230;]]]></description>
