					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://nickgeek.com/franci-chan-why-we-cant-afford-to-get-hell-wrong/#comment-19995&quot;&gt;Craig&lt;/a&gt;.

I don&#039;t think it&#039;s fair to say this post does that. Plenty of other posts maybe, but I really don&#039;t think this post does.

However, I think out belief system can&#039;t really be separated from our description of God.  For example, an atheist makes a truth statement about the existence of God.  The belief system itself assumes that God doesn&#039;t exist. Everything else flows from there.

Other belief systems hold different ideas of God, and apart from a sit down lunch with God all we really have is what we can logically deduce and what we believe He has divinely revealed.

That&#039;s why I feel challenged by this video.  Chan asks the question of why we would be so full of pride to assume that we have the market cornered in out ability to describe this great big huge God and what His divine plan is.  We put him in our box and that is something we just can&#039;t do.

That&#039;s why I bring that out in the post I actually say something about this subject in. I have my beliefs, and I feel they are justified by reason and divine inspiration, but I have to remember that I am pretty limited and God isn&#039;t.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This is an interesting conversation... but I don&#039;t agree with the approach that you are taking by comparing things with your own belief system.  I don&#039;t think we should judge God by whether he fits into our belief system.  Instead, shouldn&#039;t we judge our belief system by how well it describes God?]]></description>
