Yes. In the way in which you mean it, yes. I am not even accusing you of being a non-Christian, although I am in the extreme minority in that view. God's mercy triumphs even over ignorance. So long as you believe in Christ, in whatever way you define that, I give you full credit for loving...

You're just another garden variety pedestrian non-Trin. You don't have a fresh new take.

God is the Father. The Father is distinct from the Son. The Son is the Son of God. The Son is God.

This is just gobbledygook to us. You're like the Urantia Book people.

So, can you see that you've got two things going against you here? You deny the bodily Resurrection and you deny the Trinity, these are both central to Christian tradition, but you express doubt in both. You have to tread extremely carefully to not get tagged a blasphemer, with positions like...

There are very many churches (non-Catholic) that have left the Christian tradition, some identify as Unitarian Universalists while others just fly the pride flag and keep their name. There are no blasphemies possible in these churches but that's not what TOL is. If you're in a UU or pride flag...

lol doubt.

Yes with the proviso that "ethics" is a wax nose ambiguous word. My definition which I use for "ethics" is basically the art and science of pursuing happiness----in contrast to the term "morality," by which I mean things that people can be punished criminally for violating----and artificial...

As with all mature content, I strongly oppose them being taught to youngsters without their parents prior and clear consent. Meaning, in public schools. This kind of ethical inculcation should be outlawed. If there's a new critter involved it most certainly could be murder. OK. So then the...

I recommend reading the first page of the linked thread if you haven't, with Quip's and Town's back-and-forth. Town's reasoning is simply solid. He doesn't even argue from the position that life begins at conception, he merely ties together the fact that our constitution is based upon human...

Legally, yes. Ethically I strongly disapprove, as does Catholicism, but we neither of us believe in criminal penalties for it. Brand new critter involved now. See above. My questions weren't just rhetorical. Who gets arrested if a child goes hungry or without healthcare or without housing...

Wow do things change. When I first started lifting after high school, whey or egg protein was only available in boutique stores like GNC or Vitamin Shop, and creatine was only available through body building magazine ad mail order. Now, Walmart carries multiple options for whey isolate, and...

Read at your own risk (potential quackery warning): https://waterfasting.org/extended-healing-fasts-14-40-days/ The site promotes regular 7-10 day water fasting for healing. Regular being yearly.

But not rights to life, liberty, ethical independence, etc. Basically it means, get out of people's way, that's what a right is. Get out of their way, let them be, yield to them. Right to life? Don't kill them. Right to liberty? Don't kidnap or enslave them. Right to ethical independence...

Once there's a new critter involved it's categorically different. You're one of those critters, as am I. You get this, why are you acting like you don't get this?

Revisiting radioactivity, especially as regards dating methods used by geologists. These methods are where geologists get their support for their idea of millions and billions of years. They examine the radioactivity of sedimentary rock strata that we see everywhere on the Earth's land...

What a burn. And here I am just doubting all your claimed credentials, based on your non-ad-hominem shoddy reasoning and rhetoric. Roll eyes.

Huge numbers. Were you doing any other power lifts? Deads? Were you using creatine? Whey? I tapered way off whey this year and I quit creatine completely while I figure out a sustainable program and diet. I know creatine works, I just want to get my diet and routines right before...

Genesis-Revelation.

Specifically not just like that. Read the thread.
