VERITAS - a blog by SlightStrider

Veritas (Latin, meaning "truth"). SlightStrider's online niche where he shall express what is truly on his mind and consider what is truly going on in the world. Postings shall be about things shallow and deep, sacred and secular. The goal is to do away with Platonic seperation because everything we do is an act of worship -- either to God or to ourselves.

Some Things to Ponder

These are a few questions that I've been considering over the past few days: 1. If you don't know where you've come from, how do you know if you're getting anywhere? 2. If you are losing your salvation, did you truly possess it in the first place? 3. If you are contemplating suicide, are you (option a): admitting that your life is not worth living? (option b): confessing that living [including suffering and perseverence] is not worth your time? (option c): willing to realize that your expectations for your life may be unrealistic? 4. If you hope to go to heaven after you die but are still afraid of death, are you sure that you will ever get to heaven? 5. If God is beyond our comprehension, that is, unknowable, then how are we able to presume His existence and speculate over His personality in the first place? These are several questions that have come into the forefront of my thoughts, thanks to my college studies over the past few sessions. I encourage you to wrestle deeply over the answers to these questions. You may post comments with your responses, if you like.
