God Forbid

God Forbid is a good podcast made by ABC radio in Australia.

Blurb: Religion: it’s at the centre of world affairs, but profound questions still remain. Why are you here? What happens when you die? Does God matter? God Forbid seeks the answers.*

Highly recommended.

Edit: * Actually, it casts a far wider net than this blurb suggests.

If only there were enough time. I think too that there would be lots of good thread topics generated.

Had to comment on this almost lost thread. And why the heck the thumbs down?

With some, I think they thumb down pretty good things, just because of the speaker, shame it means they are no longer listening to someone who should be treated as an individual, instead have turned them into something less than. I have not checked it out yet.

How do you explain the other two dozen red thumbs each of your posts gets?
