The christian church has gained a reputation for being married to illogical and frankly unchristian positions. I cannot help but feel this folly is due to a culture of not asking questions.

Rather than encouraging debate, discussion, and questioning of doctrines, well-meaning church members have been lured into blindly defending the indefensible. Be that the frankly baffling trend in bashing the LGBTQ community, condemning everyone possible to hell, and giving rise to the likes of Westboro Baptist church.

I’ve made the case before that the Bible teaches that God is willing and able to debate morality with us. I think it is time that the church started teaching Christians to ask questions – especially hard questions.
