St. Maximos' Hut

A very good reflection on all three of those things here (via Instapundit).

The reviewer, John Coleman, has a very interesting reflection "Why I am a Christian" on his site as well:

That is why I am a Christian. Take all of the other options—cold, hard, materialist, and utterly afraid of their own dogmatic foundations—into account, and nothing else seems quite right. Nothing explains the shape of our bodies and souls or the warmth when those entities unite. Nothing explains our longing where no longing should be for a home buried somewhere in the sky. Nothing else portends to explain that itch we have at the base of our hearts, the constant nagging of displacement in a world in which our existence should seem right.

Stare into the sky tonight. When you finally start looking and start to see, explain to me the absence in a more coherent and hopeful way. Tell me something inside you doesn’t start to wonder why. Tell me some other explanation, any explanation, could be right.
