It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by religion when so many teachings seem to contradict each other—not just across faiths, but even within the same tradition. You grow up hearing one version of truth, then stumble on verses or stories that shake what you thought was solid. Dig a little deeper, and you start to see how much of religion is shaped by culture, power, and interpretation, not just divine guidance. For some, that confusion becomes curiosity; for others, it sparks the kind of doubt that’s hard to say out loud. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5_yrSSfcAk Navy veteran Charles R. Floyd shares insights from his book Truth vs. Chaos, exploring key theological and historical differences between the Bible and the Quran. Drawing from his extensive background in ministry, law, and religious studies, he emphasizes the importance of critical thinking and personal examination in matters of faith. Charles discusses differing views on salvation, divine authority, and scriptural interpretation, encouraging respectful dialogue and deeper understanding of religious foundations. His mission centers on helping individuals navigate complex belief systems with clarity, conviction, and intellectual honesty. Stay tuned! Quotes: “I have to first love myself. I have to first have confidence in what I believe. I have to first be clear about what I believe. Then I can present it and love my neighbor.” “It's time the world started doing a little bit of critical thinking. Get away from listening to the pundits, listening to the talking heads, and start thinking on your own.” “If I never sell a book, the book is there for posterity. If they want to see it, it's there. I'm not here to defend anything; I'm just here to present facts.” Resources: Discover Charles R. Floyd’s inspiring journey—Navy veteran, project manager, and author. Follow Charles R.
