    15 years of chrysostom 

    “ You're either growing, or you're dying—there ain't no third direction. ” You guys tried to kill us. We're well below replacement birthrate, which means this isn't just one woman here and there, kicking the can down the road, or even outright sterilizing themselves entirely. This is a WHOLE...

    Responding to "The Problem of Evil"

    Interesting position. That's all Catholic, Clete. All Catholics believe everything you wrote here.

    Responding to "The Problem of Evil"

    If you want to make Abraham into the moral equivalent of a Herculean demigod, then yeah, I definitely feel you. I don't agree, but I do get it.

    He hates flesh. It doesn't matter if you're a believer or not. That's what I said.

    The Joys of Catholicism

    One of the greatest joys of Catholicism is the Mass obligation. I know that sounds funny. How could a duty imposed on you, ever be a joy? It's because when you satisfy the obligation, you are in the Real Presence of Jesus. From the time when the Eucharist is confected through the presider's...

    The Joys of Catholicism

    It is, but she is in Heaven. Consider a scenario. You go to church with a quiet older lady who's friendly and waves to you, and you greet her, and sometimes you ask her to pray for this or that in your life. Time passes and then she passes away. You go to her funeral and in the many...

    Paul did not write Hebrews; we do not know who did

    I can only speak for myself. I've heard others say that the foundational premise is Total Depravity, the T in TULIP. I never bought into that, and it seemed more like a reverse engineering deduction rather than an idea from Scripture (Scripture does say that every good gift comes from God, and...

    Seth Moulton

    Exile. Seriously. Exile them. They're subversive insurrectionists and America is too good for them. Exile them all. How this will work out is most of them will move to Canada. Serves Canada right, having rebuffed President Trump's numerous invitations to unite with us as our 51st state...

    Seth Moulton

    Moulton is ... well he's decided he's running for Senate. idk if this is him retreating from the attack, or kicking the can down the road or what, but he's not going to compete with the TRANS candidate for his House seat and is instead going after current Senator Markey, who's nearing in on 80...

    Paul did not write Hebrews; we do not know who did

    If. But it doesn't. It only "points to" Acts 9erism once you've already accepted Acts 9erism. Which is begging the question. Which is what I said. Nope. Saying it doesn't make it so. That's your opinion. Topic is "Paul did not write Hebrews we do not know who did," disco's gone toward...

    Paul did not write Hebrews; we do not know who did

    The latter's impossible, there's literally zero evidence Acts 9erism appeared in any way, anytime before the 1800s. And I'm not saying this makes Acts 9erism false—that's not my argument. Even if there's no writing corroborating Acts 9erism in all history, that doesn't foreclose Acts 9erism's...

    Paul did not write Hebrews; we do not know who did

    A conspiracy theory, where God secretly controls the order of the New Testament (which sounds extremely Calvinist to me, tbh, afaic), to be in PERFECT accord with ONLY Acts 9erism, has just been proposed, I can only assume, with a straight face. It's not “ fascinating that the grouping of the...

    Paul did not write Hebrews; we do not know who did

    The Holy Spirit knew. And it was up to Him. Nothing got handed down to us He didn't want to get handed down to us, and the opposite is also true. He decided in His wisdom to permit us to know who wrote some of the Bible, and He didn't permit us to know who wrote Hebrews. Why and why not? is...

    Paul did not write Hebrews; we do not know who did

    $$ Heb 2:3 How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard [him]; This clearly sets the author, whoever it is, apart from the Disciples. And those disciples who weren't among the Twelve as...

    The Joys of Catholicism

    Hundred percent, it did. You need to read the book of Judith. There, the ekklesia of Judith's town was a regular character. It was the town gathered together as a governing body, not just like for a fair. It was like the New England town meetings, form of local government. They were there...

    On the Seventh Day

    Surely you understand this is a novel theory, you're going to need to show some really obv points as examples for context, so we can accustom ourselves to your novel view. If you treat your novel view as if it isn't novel, we're all going to have to do some work to even really understand you...
