    The love of money is the root of all evil

    I will never understand what you're doing here. You flat out refuse to debate anything but more than that you don't even discuss stuff with people. It's like you don't know how to read. I give up. I no longer care what you think.

    The love of money is the root of all evil

    Okay look, you are not paying attention or at least you seem to think that I'm saying more than I am because no one who understood what I'm saying would ever right the above sentence thinking that it either refuted a word I've said or that I would disagree with such an obviously true statement...

    The love of money is the root of all evil

    I'm here to tell you that you are flatly wrong. What you are describing is accurate for a lot of lower level mostly local politicians. The real players don't need money because they have something better than money, they have power and all they care about it keeping that power and gaining more...

    The love of money is the root of all evil

    Saying it doesn't make it so. You can tell by their own actions that the love of money is NOT at the root of governmental corruption. It may be for some but the real players are there accumulating power. Money is just the icing on the cake. Further, the very verse you quote tells you that it's...

    The love of money is the root of all evil

    It should be pointed out that what Jesus was talking about was covetousness. It is not money per se but the desire for that which you have not earned that is the root of all evil. And if you think its money that has driven our politics to wickedness and corruption, you're flatly wrong. It is...

    Summit Clock Experiment 2.0: Time is Absolute

    It's relevant to the extent that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Such a claim should be met with a healthy dose of scepticism, to say the least. It's not as if hardly anyone has bothered to look at Einstein's work before. I have made no such assertion! It is Mr. Bryant who...

    Summit Clock Experiment 2.0: Time is Absolute

    There's no maybe about it. If that is what is being argued then Einstein was begging the question. Come on now! It doesn't matter? Really!? Einstein's theories are among the most influential scientific ideas in the history of mankind and you think that whether or not someone has ever noticed...

    Summit Clock Experiment 2.0: Time is Absolute

    You will have to unpack this a bit. Just what concepts of Open Theism are self-defeating.? Can you articulate even one? I very much doubt that you can. Further, you equating the term "construct" with "created" is clearly an over reach. Created by whom and when and from what? Time (i.e. actual...

    Summit Clock Experiment 2.0: Time is Absolute

    If that is what Einstein had done it would be a classic and painfully obvious question begging fallacy. His work is more than a century old. Don't you think that someone would have noticed such an obvious error before now? In other words, saying it doesn't make it so. Saying that Einstein made...

    Summit Clock Experiment 2.0: Time is Absolute

    I watched the video and am very intrigued. However, there is a big problem with his claim that there is an incurable mathematical mistake with Relativity, a contention that is only briefly mentioned in the video posted above but which is gone into in detail in Mr. Bryant's previous video. In...

    Calvinism: A declaration that God is Unjust and Jesus is a Failure

    Thanks for the completely irrelevant and totally unresponsive one liner. :yawn:

    Summit Clock Experiment 2.0: Time is Absolute

    Do you have a link to something that can give me detail on this. This is the first time I've ever heard anyone say anything similar and so I don't know how to respond. I'm pretty sure I don't even understand it at all, never mind knowing how to respond to it.

    Summit Clock Experiment 2.0: Time is Absolute

    So, I've been away from this thread for a long time and I'm having a hard time figuring out how far back I have to go in order to understand this contention that E is only approximately equal to mass times the speed of light squared. What exactly do you mean by that? Einstein's equation is...

    Calvinism: A declaration that God is Unjust and Jesus is a Failure

    If you'll notice, these terms are always used in the context of groups of people, not individuals. The nation of Israel was God's elect and will be again but this does not refer to any particular Jew. Any one individual could choose to either divorce himself from Israel or any particular Gentile...

    Calvinism: A declaration that God is Unjust and Jesus is a Failure

    Calvinism is nothing at all but "Reformed" Augustinian doctrine. The belief that everything is predestined and its ancillary doctrines are all based on the idea that God is immutable, a belief that Augustine of Hippo learned from Plato and later imported into the Catholic church having used the...

    Far Better To Build Immune System than Count on Vaccines

    As of September 7, 2021, more than 176 million people in the United States had been fully vaccinated against COVID-19. During the same time, CDC received reports from 49 U.S. states and territories of 14,115 patients with COVID-19 vaccine breakthrough infection who were hospitalized or died...

    Far Better To Build Immune System than Count on Vaccines

    Yes, I looked at the links and the say things like "the date cannot be confirmed". Look, I'm not saying its false, I'm saying that I don't trust it. I'm as right wing of a Christian as you're likely to find. I hate the killing of babies as much as anyone else but I've seen some otherwise well...
