I am a scripting language connoisseur, regular expression aficionado, network geek, general lover of Linux and a frequent contributor to open source software. I transitioned to programming from other work because I was too busy automating my own work environment to actually do the other work. I have a hobby interest in cartography. For more see my personal site. Most importantly, my life is defined by the grace of God given to men through Jesus Christ. It is my ambition that everything I do would reflect His glory and point people towards Him.

Sep 8	comment	How did the monastic tradition evolve? The original monastic tradition had nothing to do with "working for the church". Even today that's not really the point.

Sep 7	comment	What should I tell my children about Santa? Welcome to Christianity.SE. This site is of for questions generally relating to Christianty. Santa Claus not being a Christian figure, this is kind of off topic here. Perhaps you could try Parenting.SE for this question or ask a question here about the ethics of honesty in relation to Christianity?
Sep 7	comment	Which Churches and ecclesial communities claim that they are the “One True Church”? As for how to make this fit ... honestly I don't think there is any way you can ask for a list like you want to see. It will be a contentious impossible topic to actually nail down. Perhaps you could ask about specific traditions you really want to know about in individual questions and what that tradition accepts. Even then I'm skeptical. Why don't you ask on meta?
Sep 7	comment	Which Churches and ecclesial communities claim that they are the “One True Church”? First, I just cast the final vote to close that one too :) I think it survived longer because the list was shorter and not an interlocking tree where every member of the list has a list of values for every other one in the list. Secondly it was asking a second question for biblical basis for the practice that people latched onto and answered instead.

Sep 7	comment	What is the verdict on an unjust judge? @Chad: My question specifically doesn't quote scripture because I don't want to take anything out of context. I'm painting a general picture of a problem if you grasp these first couple steps of Christianity, the third one is a foul without another piece. This question is asking about what that piece is!
Sep 7	comment	What is the verdict on an unjust judge? @Chad: Step 1: Romans 3:10 "None is righteous". Step 2: Revelation 16:7 "Lord God Almighty, true and just are your judgments!" or Genesis 18:25 "Shall not the Judge of all the earth do what is just?". Step 3: Romans 3:25 "in his divine forbearance he had passed over former sins." In light of step 1 and two how can he be allowed step 3? I'm not just making up these premises, he actually did this!
