In your opinion only: you'll never be able to cite a Calvinist agreeing with you, which makes this characterization of yours partisan. Logically prior to that, Calvinism claims that it will never happen. And why it will never happen is the next logical sequence: because we are the natural man...

Nope. There's only one layer, same as it always was. Bishops are the only layer, and they are middle managers, the lot of them, to translate their office into modern terms. Even the pope is just a middle manager. Priests are the bishops' assistants, this corresponds to the Biblical office of...

Incapable is your word. It's not about capability but whether or not it will ever happen, and it will never happen. Is an animal categorically incapable of driving a car or learning words? No, but will the animal ever actually do those things? Not in 13.8 billion years, not unless they get...

Priests are not bishops, right, good job, good for you, rolleyes.

Like I said, I gave you the benefit of the doubt that you weren't committing a straw man fallacy. But you were! I know that! False! All Calvinists instead admit that left to our own devices not a single one of us would be sinless! You say that therefore our sins wouldn't be our fault...

They're compromised. Partisans. (Democratic party operatives and or electioneers and or propagandists, whether professional or amateur.) Ideologues perhaps, but definitely partisans.

More than three times as many people in America watched a soccer match (dull) compared to wearing a gun every day. https://apnews.com/article/world-cup-entertainment-soccer-sports-international-dc41ac7132e520cea85b7a4ae57e3a65

The tweet is a Catholic priest (priests are assistants to the bishops in Catholicism /the Church, basically the Biblical deacons) with the same view and the same reasoning as @Nick M about the author of the book of Hebrews.

That's the right attitude. Ditto. Wrong attitude. When you start judging God, that's when you need to tell yourself, "Remember His grace toward me. 'There but for the grace of God go I.'" When I feel like judging, that's when I need to remember the grace that is being shown to me. Do you...

"41% of Climate Scientists" admit the climate agenda is 100% political partisanship. Not science.

Are we still going to pretend like this is science, instead of partisanship? It's naked partisanship. I don't have any problem with wanting to preserve the planet, I do have any problem when morals are trampled in pursuit of a political ideological preference. Whatever you want to do, it must...

Barney Fife had to carry an empty revolver with one round in his chest pocket because he was so prone to negligent discharges. There are ways to safely carry, almost no matter what lol. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unintentional_discharge#Negligent_discharge

Depends entirely on what you're up against.

All sales tax or consumption tax or value added tax is regressive, with the exception of taxing things that poor people never buy anyway. This means gas tax, cigarette and tobacco tax, candy tax, alcohol tax (along with inflation) are all regressive, and should be things the progressive...

Not even two percent of the population, in a country that now is obligated to grant an LTC to basically any law abiding citizen who applies? Those are rookie numbers.

Interesting how many of these stories end up in this thread. https://edition.cnn.com/2022/11/22/us/chesapeake-virginia-walmart-shooting Preliminary report: "Officials believe the shooter at some point turned the gun on himself"

Me. And people who use language. Correctly. Which is prerequisite to good reasoning. Logic. God is a noun----yes? God is subject to no other noun. There are fictional terms and there are nonfiction terms. Time and space are nonfiction. So ideas don't exist? You're saying none of these...

There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
