It is hard to tell the sex of sheep I suppose.
Maybe you should update your name to something more feminine.
I'd personally hate to be called Davidstesti... err... nevermind.

I know what you mean. I've read quite a few apologetic books and articles but I often feel I'm fighting against the naturalistic, secular assumptions of our society. My pastor's fairly typical I think in that he gives lots of good messages touching on different aspects of life but the foundation for them never goes back further than accepting the whole Bible as God's word. He's mentioned that he gave his life to the Lord when he was 18 but I'd like to find out what led him to that. It seems in discussions among Christians (at Bible studies for example) the unspoken assumption is that we're all good Christians who believe the Bible, and any mention of anything apologetic seems a little bit silly. But we can't just make assumptions about what we believe in lifeNessa wrote:Has anyone else lived in a city or country where there seems to be little to no emphasis on knowing why you believe what you believe.
From my experience, the only real apologetic we have here is one of experience. Which to me seems shaky. It's just my experience against your experience. Science does not seem to counter in to it at all.
Now there are parts of NZ where apologetic seminars go on etc but it's still hard to find anyone to talk to about stuff like this. Every Church I have ever gone to has never (at least as far as I am aware) never brought up anything about having a reason beyond experience. And my experience of God isn't that great so considering I have basically no evidential based apologetic knowledge its a wonder I'm a Christian.
I hope there is a God as in "I hope its going to be sunny tomorrow" and choose to believe but it is shaky.
Is apologetics big where you live? In your Christian circles?
By the way, I'm really a New Zealander and not an Aussie, but having been a city dweller I'm not overly familiar with sheep
