God is an embodiment of contradiction ?
During a discussion with a friend about God, a thought I found puzzling but provocative came to mind. I have discussed it with friends, and most seem to think it is contradictory. The thought was more of an argument, and it goes something like this: if it is true that God in some sense is the greate...

Re: Validity of the ultimate sacrifice?

The Origin of Race
