		<title>Many religious people falsify the &#8216;truths&#8217; claimed in other religions without having experienced each of these beliefs. For example, how can one know that Christianity is true and Islam isn&#8217;t without experiencing both?</title>

It is sadly true that people from different religions have sometimes, naively or otherwise, falsified the truth claims in other religions in order to make a mockery of them. This type of crude propaganda is unloving, unreal, and divisive. In order to be able to assess the validity of each religion, one must be willing [...]]]></description>

Before looking at the apparent fine tuning of the Universe, it might be useful to first look at what is known as the cosmological argument.
The cosmological argument
The cosmological argument sets out to logically infer the existence of God based upon the knowledge that the Universe had a beginning. A form of the argument recently made [...]]]></description>

Broadly speaking we find the roots of suffering in two places; due to the choices of fellow human beings, and natural disasters like [...]]]></description>

In the next two articles the nature and relationship between spiritual and functional equality will be developed; this article focussing on the role of men.

Bad Experience?
This is a commonly asked question, which often betrays a pre-supposition: having to go to church is tantamount to a life sentence in prison. Many people like the idea of a personal connection with God, but that’s my experience, right? What does my spirituality have to do with a load of other strangers?

Surely one of the most misunderstood things in the UK today is what it means to become a Christian. Because of the confused culture that we live in, I will need to start by dispelling a few myths about what it doesn’t mean along the way!
So simple

There has been a lot of speculation (and prediction in some cases) about the exact day when Jesus would come back to the world. For instance, Nostradamus predicted that &#8220;from the sky will come a great King of Terror&#8221; in 1999. This was interpreted by some as a prophecy about the second coming of Jesus.
