You still seem to be confusing two different issues. They aren't so stupid that they just forget what a meter is defined as, and besides that, they measured it to very tight tolerances long before they redefined the meter. Indeed, it was the precision of their measurements that caused them to...
A Catholic's disloyalty to the scriptures is typically left wanting but Chysostom absolutely takes the cake! I cannot understand how his Christian faith survives at all. He is effectively making up doctrine as he goes along!
His approach is not merely flawed, it is intellectually careless to...
I noticed this thread yesterday and reread my opening post. That prompted me to ask Chat GPT what the logical ramifications would be of recriminalizing adultery would be. It's initial response predictably missed the point but it lead to what turned into a back and forth that lasted for several...
No. That doesn't work because they noticed the signals coming in from the space probe arriving too early.
Also, this observation has nothing to do with the way the meter is defined. Einstein used this constancy of the speed of light as the genesis of his special theory of relativity several...
Did I miss something or does the video sort of ignore the fact that the measured speed of light is, IN FACT, always the same.
If the light is moving at 670 million miles per hour in your direction, and you’re already going 60 toward the light source, then you might expect the light be measured...
I don't have a direct answer, but I think any serious attempt at one has to start by pointing out the hard epistemological break in how distance measurements are made once you reach the limit of what direct trigonometric parallax can tell us. Trigonometric parallax requires no assumptions. It is...
The Oneness Pentecostals are coming out of the woodwork. They are entirely worthless wastes of time to try to debate. You might as well try to debate race issues with a member of the Yehweh Ben Yehweh cult.
Bob Enyart had five rules for spanking. I can remember several of them but I’m missing one.
1. Have clearly defined rules
2. No yelling
3. Do not spank with your hand
4. After letting the child calm down, speak with them looking to see if they’re repentant. If not, spank them again.
Which one...
So, I'll take that as a, "No, I don't ever answer questions directly."
Here's a question that you will answer directly and without qualification before I'd ever be willing to pay any attention to you whatsoever....
Is Jesus Christ THE God?
I've done that repeatedly already and you act like I'm changing the subject, imply that the concept I'm talking about is absent from your bible and then cite the very concept that I'm trying to tell you that your ignoring and then implying that RightDivider and I are the one's who aren't...
You seem to be woefully out of practice.
You don't seem to understand how to have a rational discussion! You do understand that this entire discussion is still here and available for everyone to see, right?

I think I agree but it depends on your intent.
If you are here speaking of salvation as the "win" then you've turned Paul's race analogy into a way of turning his entire ministry upside down and backward. Paul was not teaching legalism. Your salvation does NOT depend on how well you run in a...
I'm simply saying what I've said all along. You simply don't get to ignore the context of a passage and expect to understand it correctly. The context has direct bearing on the meaning and application of any passage. That's true throughout all of language.
Then what were you suggesting, Chrys...
