Paper Summary:

An analysis of several aspects of Christianity including morals and truth. The paper details the following four major ideas according to Christianity: Certitude, morality, belief and compassion. A definition of these four concepts as well as examples of how they are defined in Christianity is discussed. In conclusion, the paper states that sometimes Christianity sells uncertainty and vagueness. The author advises questioning.

From the Paper:

"Morality is subjective and intangible. It is different for all of us. Some people may believe that premarital sex is awful, while many others may not understand what all the fuss is about. Weather or not you think that morality is subjective or not, the fact remains that none of us can reach a consensus about what is right and what is wrong. Most of us are content to live and let live. As long as our neighbor isn't doing something to us directly we can, for the most part, overlook their idiosyncrasies. If we are doing something in the privacy of our own homes that affects no one but ourselves we expect to be left alone. One of the many problems with Christianity is its inability to accept the fact that morality is subjective."
