    Does God reveal the whole Truth?

    I didn't see an archive for this question. Can God reveal parts of the Truth a little at a time? For example, telling a little kid the sky is blue, then waiting until he's a little older to explain why. I don't have a problem with that approach to learning. But let's say, salvation. God conceals...

    Creationism

    I wanted to reply to this with a question of my own. Genesis 1 and the Garden story get really contentious, its loaded with implications almost like no other book but the Apocalypse. To me, I don't know, I think the universe might be uncreated or created. I've already talked about how awkward...

    Jews before Moses: who were they what did they believe?

    Is it true that before Moses, the Jews worshipped Elohim as many gods, or was the worship of only One God present before Moses? When did Jewish polytheism become Monotheism? I had read a theory recently, that ancient historians knew Moses as Osarsef, a rebel from upper Egypt, who freed a bunch...

    If God is Eternal

    I get confused when putting new and old testaments together. If God is eternal (so outside of all time and space) how can he be moved to jealousy by affections, or even act in our reality, without becoming temporal and a subject to our world's rules? Polytheism answers this dilemma by making the...

    An Outsider's Questions Regarding Orthodox and Latin Churches

    I don't know where else to post this. I have two questions for two different churches. Please split them up and repost them if necessary, moderation. I observed mass at a sspx chapel, since the nearest fssp was 80 miles away and there are no latin mass churches in my vicinity. I'm not any kind...
