Do you say the earth was not habitable on Day 1, or was it habitable then? What of Day 2? At what point do you say the earth became habitable if it was not habitable on Day 1? Can you believe God formed the earth to be uninhabited? Yet He clearly did: He formed the earth to be uninhabited by...

Curious if any of you, my friends here on TOL, have heard anything by Dr. Jay Smith on the origins of Islam. Here's his YouTube channel: I, personally, have only been marginally drawn, from time to time over the years, toward learning about the topic of Islam. But, what I've heard of the...

Just to prove you wrong, I'm going to bookmark it and return to read it at the top of every waking hour for the next year! Thanks for suggesting a good New Years resolution for me -- something that won't require any dieting or abandonment of sedentariness!😂

Choir director: "Please turn with me now in your hamnals to page ken."

Believe it or not, that actually, really made me laugh!

What possesses people nowadays to start a sentence out of nowhere, with no previous involvement in a conversation, by saying "I mean..."? What next? Are you going to say "bruh"? Who, besides you, says the earth is hundreds of billions of years old? What "scientific community" claims the earth...

I'm not seeing any analogy between the two things. Could you explain why you say they are analogous? But you do call something "Roman Catholicism": You wouldn't? Yet you do. But you do call something "Roman Catholicism". Are you not calling an -ism "Roman Catholicism"? So, you are not...

What (if anything) do you mean by your word "exist"? Are you claiming Jesus wasn't living before He was born? Exactly what (if anything) are you saying Jesus was not doing before He was born?

Is your pointing out the fact that the word "Trinity" is not in the Bible supposed to be thought of as somehow analogous to my pointing out the fact that the phrase "Catholic Church" is not in the Bible? Why would you call something Jesus founded, "Roman Catholicism"? Why would you want to...

Speaking of "qualifying", what's with vacuous jargon like "real presence"? I mean, either something or someone is present in some way or other, or it is/they are not. Why not just say "X is present," rather than inflating verbiage by saying things like "X is really present"?

To what are you referring by your phrase, "Roman Catholicism"? And, if you are referring to anything by it, why do you choose to so so?

In other words, your apparently highly-cherished phrase "Catholic Church" is not something anyone got from the Bible.

What I'm asking is: are you referring to anything by your pronoun "it"? If you are, then to what are you referring by your pronoun "it"? I ask that, because, if you're not referring to anything by your pronoun "it" (and by your pronoun "that"), then you're actually not asking any question --...

Can you define what (if anything) you are referring to by your phrase "the beginning of "the Romanist 'church'""?

Before when? What was "just called" "the Church"? "Just called" "the Church" by whom?

Note to self: Need to replenish my bomb-shelter pantry mask supply -- getting dangerously low! (Wouldn't want to hazard being reduced to wearing less than three at a time!)

The mentality of post-tribbers reminds me of the Laodiceans: Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked... "Thanks anyway, Lord, but I've diligently prepared for all my...

What "great pressure" would you "experience" if you're "well prepared with food, water, etc."? I mean, the whole "I'm living off the grid!" thing: isn't that supposed to be you self-righteous, self-sufficient post-tribbers' ticket to circumventing "great pressure"?

But then, you immediately proceed to contradict yourself by saying it will not be necessary for "we" to live, so long as "we" are "well prepared with food, water, etc.": According to you, of what would being "well prepared with food, water, etc." consist, exactly? Would you call yourself "well...
