I believe in God, Father, Son and Spirit, yet my quest for theological truth is often nothing more than a series of question marks left in the wake of this God's presence in my life. I think this is partly because the nature of Truth is not just something we ask about, seek to understand and analyse in terms of probabilities, rules of contradiction etc. Rather, Truth – if that is really what we are dealing with – often puts the question to us.
Anyway, enough profundity for now. I'm off to see if I can actually belch my way through the 39 Articles, or at least the Barmen declaration.

Why "invented"?
Happy rudeness with your cocksure comment!
Cocksure... now that is a word I wish was more frequently associated with me!
Chris, amen to that!
"To understand reality is not the same as to know about outward events. It is to perceive the essential nature of things. The best-informed man is not necessarily the wisest." This is what Bonhoeffer said and what fits quite well for "truth" as well.
What... no update? So could you belch the 39 articles or not???
