I'm accepting that the discoveries made on the various asteroids and comets we've sent probes to are consistent with predictions made by the HPT. Taking this as proof would be going beyond what this piece of evidence can rightly accomplish because correlation does not prove causation. The fact...

Lon, if what you mean by something is significantly different than what the Calvinist means by these things then why not just reject them instead of redefining them? If you use their vernacular, you grant them ground that they have no right to stand on. The title of each of the TULIP doctrine...

God is just. Therefore, Calvinism is false. An argument you cannot, and won't even try to overcome. If you're doctrine is correct then what are you doing here? You believe that you cannot influence a thing. Your words are worthless against the predestination of God. If your doctrine is correct...

I made the transcript of that video into a pdf and fed it into Chat GPT and asked it to summarize it for me. The following is what it presented.... The uploaded document appears to be a transcript of a video from the "Idol Killer" ministry, led by Warren McGrew. The video critiques Calvinist...

No two ways about it. That is an excellent video that makes an outstanding point that I cannot refute.

Except that you've presented no such evidence. So you claim. You do understand that making a claim is not the same as making an argument, right? A rose by any other name is still a rose, Doug! It's the same person and NO ONE denies that His name wasn't Jesus until the incarnation happened. A...

Please just tell me what the purpose of this convoluted teaching is? You completely ignore any argument made against it, including the clearest of Jesus' own words that refute it so clearly and completely that any child could know that you're definitely wrong and yet you aren't moved an inch...

I agree with you, of course, but my point was that you'd stick out like a sore thumb, which is the point of instituting such a mark in the first place. Such hording would only play into the purpose of the mark and make it obvious to everyone that you haven't taken that mark. You'd have hundreds...

The scientific community? Why would there be any debate about it within the scientific community? Why would there EVER be any debate about it in the scientific community? I know you don't get the point of that so let me spell it out.... Science isn't done via debate. Debate is for philosophers...

Terrific verse that completely explodes Doug's entire premise but PLEASE try to actually quote the verse instead of just citing it. I know it isn't required, it's just better.

So what? How does that advance your case in any way? Jesus isn't just the name of His physical body, it is HIS name! The fact that He took that name at a particular time doesn't mean He didn't exist prior to that. Did Abraham pop into existence in Genesis 17? Did Israel pop into existence in...

Oh yes He did! His physical body didn't but He absolutely has always existed from eternity past and forever more. Blasphemy! You are not a Christian. Play all the word games you like. He who took on flesh also took on the name Jesus. He is the Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last, the One...

Jesus' human body didn't exist until the incarnation happened but the Person whom we call Jesus certainly did exist. Of course, all Christians know this and they understand intuitively what is meant when someone refers to the pre-incarnate Word as "God the Son" or even as "Jesus". It works...

I just looked it up. I had no idea that it's existed since the 40s! Wow!

On both sides of the table. This new "over-under" gambling thing that so many people are doing now is all about AI powered statistical analysis and it's maybe the best thing that ever happened to bet booking websites. It's easy to understand so more people feel comfortable doing it and the AI...

Very good article. I'm really surprised that I hadn't ever learned that stuff before.

I suspect that adding such complexity to the QB rating system would have less of an effect than you might think. There seems to be something of a diminishing return on adding parameters to such analytics. You sometimes get weird results that end up muddying the water rather than clearing it up...

More accurately, the Body of Christ has no priesthood. Interesting. You think they were entered into the cannon in order of size? I'm not suggesting that you're wrong. I just hadn't heard that before.

This doesn't really effect the point you're making but, as usual, your comments lack precision. In actual fact, both "Jesus" and "Joshua" are English transliterations of Latin transliteration of the Greek transliterations of the Hebrew name יְהוֹשׁוּעַ (Yehoshua), which means "Yahweh is...

There's more to a completed pass than the accuracy of the throw. Of course that comment presumes that you are talking about assigning "strike" status to any completed pass and "ball" status to incomplete passes. If so, it would ignore when the quarterback throws the ball away to prevent getting...
