Love this! Let me see if I can expand on this so it makes a bit of larger contextual sense. Let me begin here: Genesis 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. Psalm 33:9 He spoke and it came into existence. Logos then, is (and I think I agree, impotently to a degree)...

For me, 'freedom' is and always has been an assumption and desire that enters the conversation as a preconceived notion and granted truth. I question it, simply because my mind works this way at the fall of man. The obtained autonomy came by disobedience. Prior to that, there was no such...

Ah, good call! One gets the idea 'miss Tommy' had a botched surgery and has a LOT of angst about it!

Woke transgender angry at being called 'sir' set self up for a cancelled flight: Moderator edit: The following image is a tranny. View at your own risk. https://www.yahoo.com/news/tommy-dorfman-accuses-delta-employee-124726323.html Just don't call him 'sir!'

Of course, and the irony!

Jewish slavery was more like 'indentured servant.' They were released every 7 years.

Well "wholly" was too strong, a reaction to those who would say "freewill autonomy" is a gift from God, it was the result of sin and disobedience. Judge Rightly argued well that they had to 'be able not choose the tree' per the direction. It means they were made capable of not doing so, but I...

A very merry and blessed Christmas!

Agree, liked it too.

Scenario that came to mind last night as I've been contemplating this discussion: A boy has a servant that takes care of him, the boy asks why do you do all this for me. The servant says "Because your parents instructed me to do it." The boy asks "do you like doing this?" The butler says...

Agree, but was testing it on the road before learning to drive so to speak: Can I say I 'love' vanilla? Not only that, it seems pretty egocentric. Love is 'other-centric' as far as my working definition. Agree. I'm never talking about 'choice not involved' just how/if it is part of its...

I think I can appreciate that, but is it necessary at that point? Clete rightly says we are delving into depths of His love so I'm not sure that it 'has'' to be like I'm seeing, it seems that choice is part of love, but not its definition. All this an attempt to make a 'better' definition...

It is still haunting my rational mind: I 'love' (am drawn toward) vanilla. I don't really believe I have a choice nor does it make a whit of difference to an accuracy (granted on the most superficial of love descriptions). Isn't this rather talking about 'freedom' rather than 'love?' 🤔...

Not sure if this passes for what is asked for: Act 9:4 And falling to the ground, he heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?” Act 9:5 And he said, “Who are you, Lord?” And he said, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. Act 9:6 But rise and enter the city...

Is one of those that you cannot sail to the edge and touch the glass dome?

Not until I watched the first video Judge sent in thread *one has to know all the ins/outs of discussion so a lot of people on this particular aren't going to be 'all caught up.' I'd have been lost if I hadn't watched that first video, had no idea.

LOL, you are not going to be making friends. It'd be WAY better if you said clearly: "Gravity doesn't exist, therefore has no power" (nobody ever says that :Z). So follow: I tell you gravity exists but is not a force. I tell you gravity and general relativity are the same thing (I...

Or did you mean Newton? I think he did really well with the limitations of observation. I suppose a lot of outdated stuff makes the ancients look idiotic compared to today's innovations?

Every instance I've read that suggest gravity is not a force, also says gravitational fields don't exist (no such thing as gravity). If scientists were word-masters, they'd expedite learning and accuracy by cutting out the superfluous and simply saying "Gravity doesn't exist therefore is not a...

Clarifying question as I'm following: If the algorithm is written reflecting the values of the programmer, could the interaction with AI, then become a wrestling with principalities, powers, and ruling prevailing thoughts of this age and reflect the wickedness of spiritual hosts, a secondary...
