When I was in graduate school, many moons ago, a friend and I would sit in the library and discuss different theological ideas (that’s right… we knew how to have a good time!). We gradually developed some unspoken ground rules: in order to further our discussions, each was allowed to voice unprocessed ideas, even to play “devil’s advocate” at times, as we explored new ground and re-explored known territory. That’s what I want to do here in the Kitchen of Half-Baked Thoughts. The ideas presented here do not necessarily reflect the views of the one presenting them. I won’t knowingly state things I don’t believe, but I will throw out possibilities and conjectures, hoping to draw firmer conclusions from the ensuing discussions.

Hi Tim. My name is Daniel Bonnell. I just read your review of the Mosaic Bible. I am one of the artists in the Bible. My paintings were used in five locations in the front devotional section.
After viewing your site I thought you might like to view my work. It
seeks audiences such as you and your readers. I especially think you
might find my Confessions tab most interesting as it is dark humor
not found in the Christian realm anywhere. The is found at
http://www.BonnellArt.com .
It would be good to dialog with you and share links as well.
Peace of the Lord.
Daniel Bonnell
Thanks for visiting the site Daniel. I’ll take a look at yours.
Grace and peace,

Hi Tim.
I read your comments on a http://oneinjesus.info/2009/10/19/pacifism-the-early-church/ about.
I was curious if you know of any information on why Tertullian and Origen seemed to have shifting beliefs about pacifism?
Thanks!
