My friend (L. A. Mitchell) and I (Miles Donahue) have very different views on the world and,
hopefully, this blog will get to the heart of that disagreement, as we discuss
our differences and exchange criticisms. He is an atheist, I am I theist; I
believe in God, he does not. I think we're both intelligent, rational
individuals, and it's my hope that by discussing why we hold the views that we
do, we can both learn something, and perhaps even change our own view. Our
dialogue will basically take the form of an informal debate, more akin to how
discussions take place in philosophy journals. For example, my friend will post
an argument against the existence of God on his website (I will reproduce it
here on this website), and then I'll write a response here. We'll go back and
forth like this until one of us gets tired and wants to move on to another
subject. I think this experience will teach both of us, and perhaps you, many things about
respecting those who think differently than you, and how to communicate and
dialogue with others.
