I have Lon on ignore and will have him there from now on. However, there are times when people quote his posts and snippets of the things he says are brought to my attention. I discovered the above sentence a few hours ago and it's ignorance took my breath away. There is, it seems to me, a box...

You desire too much to believe in mystical crap. You'd do well to apply a little of Akham's Razor to your doctrine.

Do you understand what it means to falsify the contrary? That might seem like an odd, even esoteric question, but it is a real question that you really do need to answer, for yourself if not for any other reason. If only A or B is true and A is falsified then B is necessarily true. Can you...

His problem runs deeper than this. If thought is purely a physical process, then it is a deterministic one, meaning that the outcomes of chemical reactions are entirely governed by the specific conditions present at the time they occur. At any given moment, there can be only one set of...

Nonsense! Do you even know what the word democracy means? Did you even bother to read the post? There would never be anything resembling a general election under such a system.

You're so blind it's absolutely incredible. Your appeal to tradition just means that you can pick and choose to believe whatever you decide to call tradition. It's fundamentally impossible to debate because there is no foundation to it whatsoever. That's stupidity. You show up with this post...

He's close to being on mine after that last gem of condescending stupidity. I don't even understand why someone with that level of dishonesty even cares to discuss the topic at all. Why not just go believe whatever the hell you decide you'd like to believe? Where the profit in pretending to...

This makes no sense. It doesn't even feel like a response to what I said.

Sorry, but, so what? You reject the whole of Strong's because of the translation of a single word and turn instead to Google? I don't get it.

It is all that such "arguments" deserve. It'll be my plain reading of the text against you explaining that reading into non-existence. It isn't my distinction. It was Paul's. See what I mean! You're argument here is that James didn't mean what any plain reading of the text would indicate...

Why do you trust Google more than Strong's? Or am I misunderstanding your point here?

Of course, I agree with the gist of your comment here but I just want to make clear that Israel's gospel was indeed under-girded by grace in that no one could follow the law perfectly.

Most of this can be responded to with... Saying it doesn't make it so! I mean, my position is what Galatians 2 explicitly states and you just ignore it as though it doesn't exist and just state your own doctrine as though the fact that it's different than mine somehow counts as a rebuttal...

False.

A Biblical System for Appointing Judges: A natural question arises from my previous post on the role of the judiciary in a constitutional monarchy. If judges are to derive their authority directly from the constitution rather than from the king, how then would they be appointed and on what...

Does anyone have a copy of the proposed code of use and criminal code?

A Proposed Monarch Removal Mechanism: One of the most pressing concerns I have regarding the proposed constitutional monarchy is the absence of any mechanism to remove a rogue king. This is not a mere theoretical issue, but a critical flaw that could doom the entire system. While the proposal...

All of that is MY argument, not yours! It is because prophesy has to do with Israel and not the Body of Christ that we know that preterism is false. We KNOW it is false. It isn't a theory, it isn't a hypothesis, it isn't an opinion. If preterism is true then Paul is a false apostle and...

I noticed that you completely ignored (or more likely missed) the point of the argument but that doesn't matter. You aren't interested in whether your beliefs make any sense. It's the fact that you believe in the creeds that's your first and most important error. The only creed you need to worry...

You're stupid. Good bye!
