The beginning of more….

” I have a problem with christians that tend to represent themselves as being standards of righteousness… firmly and often aggressively standing against “SIN”

My problem is not that they have firm convictions, or that they abhor un-righteousness but that often their convictions are not convictions at all, but more of a “safe haven” or “trench” from which to shoot others.

I recently got into a discussion about ethics and found that I had no idea what I believed! In fact I disagreed with what I believed.. (if that can be done?) after being aggressively questions about several Hypothetical situations I found that I would unquestionably choose what I believed was a morally wrong thing to do, to deal with a situation that had no positive outcome otherwise.

So what are our convictions based on? and how do we navigate impossible situations? by inaction?
