    How safe are vaccines?

    And then they call you the moron.

    How safe are vaccines?

    The questions go together. I’m willing to be called a moron if it gets people thinking, but apparently that’s not happening.

    How safe are vaccines?

    But you would consider it at the 99:100 ratio? Short term, maybe, though it seems to be very short term, if at all. @marke’s examples were ones that showed a willingness to halt voluntary vaccination programs. This administration is not halting even the mandatory programs (pogroms?) based on a...

    Our Moral God

    Obviously we’re talking about different aspects of the person that change. Any movement or breath is a change—an interaction with the environment or other entities. But none of that is talking about a change into a different person. At least you’re seeing why I limit it to “character”, which you...

    The Biden administration: Inflation does not hurt poor people

    How very apropos. [Dan 5:6 CSB] his face turned pale, and his thoughts so terrified him that he soiled himself and his knees knocked together. https://www.iheart.com/podcast/256-conservative-daily-podcast-53710765/episode/did-joe-biden-soil-himself-88737068/

    The Biden administration: Inflation does not hurt poor people

    And American prosperity.

    Our Moral God

    Good point. But if you take it apart, did God choose anyone to be evil and full of fault? Did He want people to disobey Him, ever? No. He wants all people to experience the goodness that comes from obeying Him, because He knows what's good and bad for people. Are there any that God chose to...

    Our Moral God

    Yes! At one moment I was disciplining them, and the next I had stopped. That’s a change, not in character, but in activity. Relationship requires change, because it involves response. No one can respond or “relate” to another without changing in some way. God has not always loved you, because...

    Our Moral God

    But that has little to do with whether God can "change" in some way without His character changing. If part of God's character is "mercy", it implies change because mercy means nothing without first a sentence of judgment. So first God tells Adam he would die, then He arranges to save him from...

    I’m sorry, ffree. I have no idea what you mean. I’ll answer “no” to all three.

    Our Moral God

    You have to put Heb 13:8 next to other verses, like these: 2 Cor 5:21 Philippians 2:7 And from the same book as yours, Hebrews 2:7-9 (KJV) 7 Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands: 8 Thou hast put...

    Our Moral God

    That very verse limits the ways in which God doesn’t change when it says “therefore ye … are not consumed.” The fact that they existed means God had changed in the past. The fact that they were the chosen people means God had changed in the past. The reason they were the chosen people means that...

    The sacred name YHVH and the speed of light

    The first letter of baloney is "b", which in Hebrew is Bet', which means 2. The second letter of baloney is aleph, which means 1000. If you square 1000, you get a cool 1,000,000 pieces of baloney--which is a whole lot of baloney, much more than anyone should ever consume.

    Did God make a distinction between light and shine?

    He might have meant "infrared light" rather than "inferred light". If so, he might have a point, if there was any heat at all. But that's trying to insert a modern definition of "light" into the meaning of the text, where it likely doesn't apply. Or if photons hadn't been created yet, then...

    New Lancet study on vaccine efficiency

    I was pretty explicit in my question to you. Maybe you regularly misunderstand people??

    New Lancet study on vaccine efficiency

    Ok, so even @User Name believes the vaccine is the New World Order's antichrist mark of the beast Satan the devil 666.

    Protestantism was falsified here on TOL

    I try to avoid it, but it’s hard to go east from Colorado without going through Kansas. I just did it a couple weeks ago.

    New Lancet study on vaccine efficiency

    Apparently there's plenty of room for snarcasm. Or are you actually saying one of your premises is that: , and I can use you for a source of that description?
