My First Theological Blog Post/Article
Hey guys!
I just published my first blog post/article about theology today! I wrote it on my personal favourite topic and what this subreddit is about: Christian Universalism. Please give it a read if you get a chance and let me know what you think! It is quite a long article (about 15 minutes reading time), so if you read it I'll be really grateful!
As per the rules of this subreddit, I'll give a short summary of what the article is about. I discuss my personal experience with revealing to people that I am a Universalist and introduce the topic. I explain some of the reasons why I like Universalism as a doctrine, such as how well it answers some very difficult questions like the Problem of Evil. I provide some counterarguments to common criticisms against Universalism like those related to the necessity of evangelism. I also present my personal favourite argument for Universalism. I also discuss some of my personal concerns of people misinterpreting and misapplying this doctrine. I then wrap up the article with the conclusion saying Universalism is not such an unreasonable proposition and people must stop just shutting us down when we tell them what we believe and actually engage us. This article is kind of a synthesis of all of the different thoughts I've had ever since becoming a Universalist.
This is my first article, and it is written in a bit of an informal tone and is not meant to be an academic text, so please go easy on me😁
