Thanks Van, interesting about your connection with L'Abri. Of course religion is a way of viewing the world as is any worldview. Physicalism (materialism, naturalism, scientism) are also ways of looking at the world. Our cultural drivers like our education system tells us that physicalism is based on reason and scientific fact where religion is a bunch of discredited myths. I've spent most of my 300 plus posts trying to point out that theism and even traditional Christian beliefs are as well supported by what we know through science and our rational minds as physicalism, in my view, better supported. I'd be interested in your thoughts if you have reviewed any of those, assuming your worldview more lines up with physicalism.
