Note: The following articles represent a long struggle to understand Christian theology and the Bible. If they appear to contradict one another at certain points, it's because I wrote them at various times during my theological journey. If they contradict prevailing orthodoxy ... it's because I don't believe in the infallibility of majority opinion. -- SJ
