Since we've spent so much time talking about free will, let's discuss the obvious issue of having freedom and then being restricted by the rules of the Bible. Does the Bible take our freedom right back away?

In this episode, let's pick up where we left off last time, but take a theological approach to the topic of free will as opposed to a philosophical approach. Even if we have free will, so what? What does that mean for us in life? Let's talk about this!

In this episode, let's discuss the philosophy behind free will in preparation to discuss the theology on free will in the net episode.

In this episode let's talk about God's immutability in contrast to the Bible versus that talk about God changing his mind or repenting of what he's done. What's the deal? Is it a contradiction?

In this episode, let's look critically at the verses in the Bible that talk about slavery and see if we can reconcile the Bible's relevance to a modern world where most of us are aware of the evils of slavery and racism.

Let's talk about some of the different theories of evolution and how they contradict and/or compare to what's presented in the Bible. What do you think? Is evolution completely false, or deep down are you somewhat of a monkey that wears pants?

Break out the sassy podcast host for this one! Let's have a prelude of a conversation to the topic of 6 day creation vs evolution by discussing the rivalry of Christianity vs Science! Must one of them win? Do you have to choose one and forsake the other? Ready? Go!

So maybe you want to be a Christian and hold onto your faith, but you find yourself disagreeing with the practices of your local church, or church as a whole. Let's take a historical and philosophical look at how church deconstruction should be done.

In this episode, let's talk about what deconstructing Christianity means and whether it's a good idea or not.

After talking so much about Heaven and Hell, let's back up and ask why God would even make people He knew were destined for eternal torment? For that matter, why put the tree of the knowledge of good and evil in the garden in the first place?

In this episode, let's talk about some of the common concepts and myths about Hell and whether or not they come from the Bible or from philosophy.

In this episode, lets set the mood for the dirge that is this series on Hell. Let's start by looking at what Hell will be like, on a psychological level.
