Hello, and welcome to my blog. My name is Jonathan Steele, a native English male in my late 40s. I live in London and have had a life-long fascination with religion, philosophy and metaphysics, theology in other words. I studied theology at Oxford University in my 30s, but this had the unfortunate effect of undermining my Christian faith and leading me to the seductive but deceptive paths of Buddhism, firstly Friends of the Western Buddhist Order then Nichiren Buddhism. Fortunately, after eight years in these cults, God by his grace called me back to the faith through a (re)conversion experience over the Christmas of 2008. In later blogs I will discuss in greater depth my life as a Buddhist, and compare and contrast it with my Christian faith. I will also discuss apologetics, which is the rational defence and justification of Christianity (not just Christianity, but just about anything you can think of). I will also discuss Darwinism and Christianity, end of life issues, abortion, and other mainstream Christian and ethical issues.
So, why be interested in theology? But
