    Denunciation: like 'doctrine of demons!' Disagree but we disagree enough, no surprise, right...

    Denunciation: like 'doctrine of demons!' Disagree but we disagree enough, no surprise, right? 'Last resort' is rather acceptance, denial, restating the obviously clear, or walking away... God gets His last word, we ponder, fight Him over a construct, or pray. I have loved quotes, but...

    Polygamy is in the Bible

    : Plain: This Dr. Brown? Frankly, while I love passion in the Charismatic/Pentecostal, I really have a problem with anti-academics and but rarely find someone from among them that can actually be objective and stable academically without appeals to sensationalism (this one if not your...

    Polygamy is in the Bible

    Easy: smoke and mirrors don't help you or Barbey at all. Let's look again and PLEASE try and stay substantial! Deuteronomy 17:17 Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold. NOTICE what Barbey and Neo...

    Polygamy is in the Bible

    Apropos to your non-engaging 'hot mess.' You were incredibly insubstantial and nonengaging, so of course I was going to call out your jejune emote. I can banter in the schoolyard all day with such immature lacking retort but responding 'foul' was the right tack. It was beneath you AND I...

    Summit Clock Experiment 2.0: Time is Absolute

    Summary: Einstein did math on a train that made him realize that 'time is relative' from Newton and Maxwell's observations. Newton believed time was a constant, thus a constant property of/for God. Einstein discovered from Maxwell's theory, that there was a discrepancy: the mathematics of...

    Summit Clock Experiment 2.0: Time is Absolute

    Except God. Certainly relationship with relative beings engages on a relative level, but He is forever the same, as scripture tells us Hebrews 13:8 God is relational to us, as 'we' experience time, but because He is the only constant in the universe, it means necessarily (and Augustine and...

    Summit Clock Experiment 2.0: Time is Absolute

    A 'construct' can be relative. Think buildings: 'relative to climate.' They are different. So is measurement (time is a measurement). Well, there goes the tangent.... The talking point here: A 'foot' is a construct. When is it 'relative?' When I (or one of my other relatives in...

    Summit Clock Experiment 2.0: Time is Absolute

    Time is relative (Einstein was/is correct). The problem with trying to make time 'absolute' is 1) it doesn't work in physics and 2) that a measurement is never absolute: Once you say 6 foot, for instance, you've not measured in anything but a ballpark we all understand. Time is exactly the...

    uh oh USA

    Yet, it is an interesting talking point: While we have freedom of speech in our respective countries, it is true that social media does censor. We tend to think media should be impersonal: that we should be able to post relatively freely (as an expectation). While there are points of 'uh...

    uh oh USA

    Perhaps a problem with the guy who posted (Jack Posobiec), but did you realize it was a video of a Taliban speaker? No matter who posts a video, right, left, far right/left, the video is general the talking point. You and Way 2 may be talking past one another. If so, it does look like you...

    Polygamy is in the Bible

    "Who cares what barbey a.c. et al thinks?" 🗣️ 1 Corinthians 7:2: But because of sexual immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman should have her own husband. Oops, clearly (clearly) Barbey and Neo are wrong. 💫 No, you and he aren't correct. The scripture says 1) "not...

    It isn't right, but I literally saw at first. Don't hate.

    Polygamy is in the Bible

    blah blah blah blah I don't really care for emoting, it means you lost this argument. Thank you for the capitulation. More than. You are not an honest fellow. It means you posture over platitudes instead of standing upon the word of God. The reason, today, by you, is clearly seen...

    Polygamy is in the Bible

    Yes. It. Does. Same thing exactly. Sorry you lose on this one. Same issue: O.T. doesn't have a problem with it. The N.T. even tells slaves to be obedient BUT that if they could gain their freedom, they SHOULD because Christ died to set men free. Go ahead. Post those "God favor's...

    Historians rank Trump among worst presidents in US history

    Oddly, this is a 'Trump is the worst' so I'd simply own up. I didn't vote for him. Right before he ran, he was on the Apprentice and he made a couple of poor business and humane choices. His womanizing was also a huge problem. The Clintons have been involved in too many sketchy issues...

    Polygamy is in the Bible

    Shaky ground similar to slavery. Just because you've seen it in the Bible, doesn't dictate. You've made a leap from 'example' to 'go and do likewise' and it is nowhere in the Bible. IOW, YOU have made something a truth, not because of 'demons' but because of you. I asked you...

    Polygamy is in the Bible

    I'm sure you think so...despite what I (and I know) said. : Plain: So you particularly read "...surely pay the bride-price for her to be another of his wives." There are more than a few more. Ananias and Saphira, Mary and Joseph, Zechariah and Elizabeth, Priscilla and Aquila, Paul...

    End of Roe Vs Wade?

    Agree. We are always looking for the 'pure' evil and often miss that insanity and purposelessness can be just as vile, which is/was Satan's downfall as well.
