Your Request Is My Command

A poll wherein I ask my subscribers to submit ideas for my next post!

Alright, everyone, I’m going to try my best to continually get you guys involved in these posts. The Fathoms, after all, isn’t just about me typing out long spiels about theology or philosophy or scattering poetry to the wind.

This blog is about thinking and contemplation, asking questions and finding answers—the way Socrates viewed an ideal society would interact. And conversation requires community, so I’m going to start doing something different. I don’t want y’all to just come here and read a post; I want you to feel like a part of the blog.

This week, I am going to ask my subscribers to comment a question that they’d like to see me tackle in the next post.

And in that post, I will provide my answer, along with a dozen reasons why y’all shouldn’t make me drink hemlock for my opinion (though I can’t well equate myself with Socrates, as he mainly asked questions, while I mainly answer them).

I’ll also ask YOU GUYS what you think. And whoever’s response gets the most likes will be invited by me to do a guest post—poetry, philosophy, theology, honestly anything you’d like.

So, this is the point where you can comment below a question or a prompt that you’d like to see me tackle, and I’ll do my best! I look forward to seeing everyone’s responses!

Having trouble? Think of a question dealing with the Bible that you’ve always wondered about! Or look at some paradoxes—you can find tons of them on the Internet. Alternatively, you can ask a friend or family member for inspiration.
