It is definitely not more recent. The Access Hollywood interview is fairly well documented. Plus, I now know for a fact that Dolly was not referencing Azazel. She was making specific reference to the Azul brand of Tequilla. By shear coincidence, the truck in the photo below drove past me...

The contrast is definitely stark enough to raise the suspicion that their both having used Abraham to make opposite points was intentionally done. Perhaps Paul had read or heard about James' epistle and chose to make the opposite point as a result. Or it may well have been coincidental Abraham...

I trust next to nothing that I see on social media. Particularly when there's insufficient context or no context at all. That particular video you posted is from a December 2018 Access Hollywood interview with Dolly Parton and Jennifer Aniston, interrupted by Sandra Bullock bringing tequila...

I showed Chat GPT that video and after it's initial response, I also asked whether Dolly ever made any public professions of faith in Christ. Here is it's response... Yes. Dolly Parton made many public professions of Christian faith over the course of her life, and some were quite explicit...

The point of the question that your statement, "Sheol is enlarged because it was never intended for men to be cast into it.", seems to be incompatible with the teaching that men and the devil fell at the same time.

I understand that serpentdove has been banned but I want to respond to the short essay he linked to in the above excerpt from his post, which tries to argue that James 2 isn't talking about actual belief but only stated (i.e. pretend) belief. I won't post the full text of the essay here. The...

The men it was intended for were those who follow the devil. Do you a agree with Bob's teaching about Lucifer, (i.e. the yet unfallen angel) having sinned in Genesis 3 and that it was his temptation of Adam and Eve was where sin entered creation?

Okay, so the immediate context absolutely does involve Hymenaeus and Philetus and their false teaching about the resurrection. Paul contrasts Timothy, who must handle the truth correctly, with men who have “concerning the truth…erred” (See verse 18). But the claim that “rightly dividing” means...

There is precisely one reality. It includes all real things, thus the word, REALity. That isn't sarcasm, by the way. It's just me making the point. Whether we can experience it or not is beside the point. If it is real then it is part of reality, by definition. The argument I made in my...

Yes, it would be better if you just apologized to everyone and promised to try not to promote stupid ideas, try to state what you actually mean and not to respond to arguments as if they're personal attacks. You won't do it but it would definitely be very much better. OH! You meant me! Here's...

I took no shot at you. I do not know you. I don't care anything about you whatsoever! I took a shot at the notion that we're living in some sort of simulation and I responded to what you said with an argument. If you take statements of fact and rational arguments personally, then you've got...

You wasted your time. You are a waste of time, but not of mine any longer. I regret having ever engaged this thread at all. It must be awful for you to have say what you actually mean and explain yourself more than once. Please don't ever put yourself out like that again for the likes of me. Not...

I wanted to discuss the issue you brought up and debate it as best I know how. You respond to that with insults. Just go believe whatever the hell you want. You're going to anyway! See if anyone here gives a damn. I know I won't.

There is no such thing as an irrational truth! You used it repeatedly and were clearly not only entertaining this idiotic idea but believed there were a lot of other idiots of the same flavor! Heaven forbid you explain yourself you self-important imbecile! Why is it every time I take you off...

That tells me nothing. What are you even talking about? I cannot fathom what that could even possibly mean and it isn't what you said. "We are spiritual beings that for some reason, God decided to interact with us firstly via this simulated environment of the physical realm. That is what I...

There is precisely NO evidence that we live in ANY SORT of simulation! The whole notion is patently irrational. Literal nonsense! If I seriously entertain the possibility that the world around me is a simulation, then I must also entertain the possibility that I am part of that simulation. My...

You are the one making the affirmative claim that the king is immune from criminal prosecution. You are the one with the burden of establishing that immunity. We have already established the general moral principle that civil government is authorized by God to punish criminals. You are claiming...

I think there are several serious problems with this, beginning with the assumption that these dreams were miraculous in the first place. You have had a series of dreams and, after later events occurred, interpreted those events as the fulfillment of the dreams. From there you concluded that...

Well, there a lot to say about this but the first thing is that you haven't succeeded even in the stated purpose of your post. You set out to identify the loop we're stuck in, but the loop you've identified exists only after you rewrite my premise to require some "further" domestic authority...
