Why I Can’t Comprehend God—And Why I Don’t Want To

Keywords

God, comprehending, Paul, Athens

Abstract

Paul arrived in Athens bewildered.

He shouldn’t have been.

The Gods of This World

Athens had been the intellectual center of the Greek world for centuries

Athens was built and dedicated to the goddess Athena, the goddess of wisdom, the goddess of warfare. I’m not sure how wisdom and warfare go together. For the moment I’ll give the Greeks the benefit of the doubt that they knew what they were doing in creating the divine job description for Athena.
