Excellent article on being Christian in a sceptical climate by Simon Barrow. Thought provoking stuff, especially his emphasis on the implications of the doctrine of the Incarnation and God being found in the material of the world, and the significance of the Trinity.

Wow, that was excellent. I don't agree with him on all points, but on most of them, and really, really like his insight.

It's like, people (even Christians) see Christianity as a restriction and a blinding, which would be a lot like saying that learning the truth of a matter is restricting and blinding because you no longer follow what's false. Christianity is about growing and becoming, not cutting and reducing.
