unTapped Topic: Human Origins?

This week's conversation:


One of our sometime conversationalists put on his facebook status a quote from Napoleon (Bonaparte, not Dynamite): 

 ' All religions are made by men' 

I whole-heartedly agreed with the quote, but I think I came to a very different conclusion for what that quote practically meant for my life and spirituality. So, do you think that religion is a human-made institution or do you believe there is a divine impetus at the center of your faith? Does a belief in a human-based automatically make you a non-religious person? Are people who question the veracity of religions historical being overly skeptical or are their concerns legitimate inquiries?

Join us this WEDNESDAY, 7pm at Short's Brewing Company in downtown Bellaire for a lively chat about faith origins and how they affect our paths. 

unTapped Reminder

UnTapped, at its core, is a weekly exercise for the ears. In the arena of faith, there are few places where it is safe to have a conversation with diverse perspectives. We are trying to make one of these safe places in our weekly conversation. We hope to establish a conversation where we can hear and learn from perspectives and experiences we would not otherwise hear about.


Our conversations are open and public. Open means that every perspective is welcome. Public means that we gather in a place that is not dedicated to any religious perspective at all. Instead, we gather at a great pub in a great town.  That way, if you don't like the subject matter, you can still enjoy this:

Thanks to everybody that has been a part of the conversation over the past several years. Cheers!
