LH, I agree with much of your latest post. But unfortunately, when one 'belongs' to a Church, one is expected, it seems, to swallow whole the doctrine thereof. The trouble is I tend to question before I accept. Many perfectly sincere and trusting folk are content to believe without going into things too deeply, and I wish I were one of them. But part of my brain analyses and assesses what is presented (as in for example certain parts of the Bible and some of the tenets of the Church of England) and where logic or fairness are found wanting I can't agree wholeheartedly. I must have a very weak faith. But I suppose God made me like this. I just have to stumble on somehow and hope He understands!
