    On the omniscience of God

    The term "irrational numbers" doesn't just apply to the square root of negative numbers but to also to numbers like π where its an endless, non-repeating list of decimals. The use the word "irrational" is not being used in the philosophical sense of the word. It's basically just a title. It...

    Who Justifieth the Ungodly

    Notice how the verses he cites don't say anything about the doctrine he spouted in the opening sentence? He might as well have quoted some passage from Gone With the Wind. Doctrine: "God is an arbitrary ogre that cannot choose to change his mind!" Proof: “Life's under no obligation to give us...

    Paul did not write Hebrews; we do not know who did

    Constantly mischaracterizing things is a form of lying, especially when you've been repeatedly corrected, which means that it's intentional. Lair. No it absolutely was not. You're such a fool. It's hard to even accept that you're even a Christian at all. Yes it was/is. It's capital city was...

    Paul did not write Hebrews; we do not know who did

    I haven't ignored anything. I haven't suggested that anyone ignore anything. You knew that when you wrote this. You are therefore a liar. So much for fools who claim sinless perfection. That's true of those in the Body of Christ. It was not true of those in the Kingdom, who were of Israel...

    On the omniscience of God

    Can you not see that whatever led to the conclusion, "there must be some truth that outlines a process of the ineffable that goes beyond reason" was itself an attempt as using the very thing you just stated "leads you into a wall"? The conclusion, "there must be some truth that outlines a...

    On the omniscience of God

    Meaningless, self-contradictory gibberish. By what means is reason "augmented"? There was no before God! Are you incapable of saying even one sentence that doesn't contradict your own stated beliefs?! Mindless stupidity. Nonsense. Then why accept this nonsense about your made up god...

    Paul did not write Hebrews; we do not know who did

    This is the sort of flippant stupidity that got you ignored in the first place. Are you simply incapable of substantive discussion? The believers that Paul wrote too were all in the same group as you and I and so they apply directly. The epistles written by Peter, James and John were written to...

    On the omniscience of God

    Then you're an idiot. You might have stated with equal validity that, "I can not utter a word in English." No truth claim can be falsified in any way other than sound reason - period. If sound reason doesn't work, no knowledge is possible. This is not only false its stupidity. And I mean, by...

    On the omniscience of God

    Well, I have to admit that this is better than I expected. You're far ahead of most who show up here saying the sorts of things you've been saying. The vast majority never bother to acknowledge that the question was ever asked, much less actually offer an answer. This, however, does not solve...

    Paul did not write Hebrews; we do not know who did

    No one here would ever suggest that there isn't anything to learn from the books of the bible that weren't written by Paul. The entire Old Testament, the teachings of Jesus in the Gospels and the New Testament books from Hebrews through Revelation are all scripture and "profitable for teaching...

    On the omniscience of God

    I haven't read a single syllable past that comma (you'll just have to take my word for it) but I'd bet my last dime that you won't finish this sentence without assigning a label to yourself. HA!! I promise! I really hadn't read past the comma! Why do people so habitually contradict themselves...

    Who Justifieth the Ungodly

    Notice that the verses b57 cites do not teach what he is trying to get you to believe! B57 wants for you to believe that Christ only died for some specific number of people and that everyone else is without hope because Jesus didn't die for them and so it makes no difference what they do, say...

    How does one determine, using the scientific method, that the earth is billions of years old?

    No, I don't think that. What do you mean, anyway? What's strange about existence itself? I can't even imagine how it would make sense to say such a thing. Strange compared to what?

    On the omniscience of God

    Are you a Christian? (Real question.) If so, then I recommend that you start to think biblically rather than materialistically. Sure, there is plenty about God that we can learn from observing His creation but not nearly what is available to us through the Bible, which, if you're a Christian...

    How does one determine, using the scientific method, that the earth is billions of years old?

    Let me do it for him. Getting vowels to say anything worthwhile is an exercise in self-torture. Based on uranium-lead dating, there is a tinsy-winsy little piece of zircon that is "at least" 4.4 billion years old. Because there isn't any way at all that lead could possibly find its way into...

    How does one determine, using the scientific method, that the earth is billions of years old?

    The portion at the link about thorns simply makes the claim that thorns are "blooms which fail to open" but does even try to substantiate that claim. I'm not questioning whether thorns existed before the Fall but merely the contention that thorns are blooms which fail to open. If you cut an...

    How does one determine, using the scientific method, that the earth is billions of years old?

    This is the very first time I've ever heard anyone make the claim that thorns are unopened blooms. I very much doubt that is correct. Thorns are modified stems, not flowers as evidenced by the fact that thorny plants have thorns whether they are flowering or not, most thorny plants produce both...

    How does one determine, using the scientific method, that the earth is billions of years old?

    Let me guess... After 550 posts, the answer so far is, "No."

    Allegory/Symbolism in Genesis 1

    Oh, for crying out loud! Just leave already. Go find someone who will coddle you and rock you sleep so you can stop crying. Maybe they'll carry you to a bed with little bars around it lest you fall out and hurt yourself.
