Ten Statistics You Should Know about Religion in Canada

June 5, 2018 by wagraham 2 Comments

Canadians seem to lack the statistical studies that our neighbours to the South have. And this means we find it harder to understand our nations religious mood and sensibilities. Yet the Angus Reid Institute, Statistics Canada, and a recent study of churches in Southern Ontario provide fascinating insights into our nation’s religious sensibility.

Here are ten interesting statistics about religion in Canada. [Read more…] about Ten Statistics You Should Know about Religion in Canada

Why Christians Should Not Uncritically Support the Political Right

May 30, 2018 by wagraham Leave a Comment

Christians tend to oppose the political left because the left often conflicts with certain key convictions of Christianity. For example, politically left-leaning people tend to advocate the possibility of a utopia, created on the basis of the perfect societal system.

But Christians maintain that apart from God’s grace humans tend towards evil. So, creating a utopia apart from God’s grace is impossible (but will happen at the second coming when Christ will rule). For reasons such as this, Christians find it hard to support politically left-leaning groups.

The alternative is often a politically right-leaning group. In the USA, the Republican and Democratic parties represent the two sides of the equation and many Christians gravitate to the Republican view of things. As the reasoning goes, Republicans believe in the centrality of the family, small businesses, fiscal conservatism, and the pro-life position. Consequently, Christian should support the right because it is right.

I understand this point of view. But I want to suggest that supporting the political right may not be any better than supporting the political left.  [Read more…] about Why Christians Should Not Uncritically Support the Political Right

The Story of Alfie Evans

April 28, 2018 by wagraham Leave a Comment

Blurred street view of Cairo

On April 28th, 2018, Alfie Evans died before celebrating his second birthday. He died because the hospital removed life support from him. Why? Because they deemed his condition terminal and further claimed that supporting his life was “unkind and inhumane.” In short, the hospital could have prevented Alfie’s immediate death but decided not to because his life was no longer worth saving.

Episode 04: Origen and the Rack

April 25, 2018 by wagraham Leave a Comment

The Banner for the Storied. On Faith and Failure podcast

Storied is a podcast that tells stories about faith and failure. And sometimes it recounts stories that are so ridiculous that they seem more fitted to Monty Python than to real life. So, listen in to learn about the past, to enjoy a good story, and to know more than you did before. You can subscribe to the podcast on iTunes here or Stitcher here.

Origen of Alexandria is well-known today. But generally not for good reasons. Many criticize him for reading the Bible allegorically, for castrating himself, and for holding to less than orthodox beliefs. Actually, the thrust of these accusations is incorrect. But that’s not what I want to focus on. I want to focus on a part of Origen’s story that is less well-known. And it is a story in which he suffered greatly for his faith in Jesus Christ.
