Why irenics?

Blogs appear to be magnificent places to discuss and debate ideas. Could there be a better way of doing the rigorous task of theological reflection? That's why I titled this blog "Irenics." (The definition may be found in the header above.) I plan on posting various quandaries that plague my mind. I hope this is a friendly place where we could refine and enlarge our understanding of our Lord and the world He created. Who knows? Perhaps we'll solve the 2000 year-old synergism v. monergism debate.
