What amazes me even more are the people who do know what the bible says and argue bad theology anyway. It's as if the bible doesn't matter, or that it is, at most, secondary. This comes in many forms. Augustine knew the bible well but held the teachings of Aristotle above all else. David...

Genesis 2:21 And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. 22 Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man. 23 And Adam said: “This is now bone of...

You understand that God does NOT make each person individually, right? I, for example, am not an introverted thinker because God decided in advance that I would be and set about specifically crafting my DNA in order to force that outcome. That isn't how it works. God made Adam from the dirt of...

Who do you know who "...are being taught that by their own families to dislike people for the way they look."?

The fundamental problem with identifying Mahmoud Abbas, Hamas, or any present political figure as the Beast of Revelation 13 is not that the news headlines do not line up cleanly. The problem is far deeper than that. It goes to the very premise of the theological position. It is a dispensational...

I personally do not know one single person who doesn't except people on the basis of their color or gender. Such people exist, but they seem mostly to be angry white women who mostly hate white men, and rich black people who hate whites for creating the country that made them rich and that...

You contradict yourself in such painfully obvious ways that it seems like your whole system would collapse into some sort of weird death spiral. What prevents you from grabbing the flat part of a hot skillet? What is it that keeps you from using your razor to brush your teeth? That's how...

Name one mid-Acts dispensationalists that teaches we will marry in heaven.

Hypocrite!

Those same authors, and many more, went to painful deaths rather than recant their eyewitness testimony of the things they saw Jesus do and heard Him say. Doyle never claimed Sherlock Holmes to be a real person, but suppose he did. Do you suppose that Doyle would have died in defense of a claim...

Liar. The thread is all still right here for the entire English speaking world to read. No it isn't! You were using a cliche that you thought was a fact until you encountered a Christian who educated you otherwise. You don't know what an ad hominem is either, do you? Is everything you...

I don't even think Satan would tolerate that level of mental laziness. Satan is evil, not stupid.

Notice how naturally this fool appeals to negative claims both as and immediately after stating so boldly that you cannot prove a negative, which is itself a negative claim, by the way. If it’s true, it can’t be proven. If it can be proven, it’s false. The statement cleanly defeats itself. How...

You may well be the single stupidest individual that has ever posted on this website. There are no elves living anywhere you slobbering moron! There is no such actual thing as elves!!!!

Rand came the closest that I've seen to having a coherent ethics. Her standard was life. More specifically, the life of a rational being. As far as that goes, it's entirely correct! Her error was in thinking that human beings were the only rational being in existence. That, and she made no...

Yes! Negative claim: There is no largest prime number. The claim was proven in Euclid’s Elements by contradiction. Any supposed largest prime can be used to generate a larger one. You would do well to take a course on logic and perhaps a Philosophy 101 class. There are many available free of...

They can, just not consistently. Some are more consistent than others, but there is always some point at which they are forced to contradict the materialist worldview. Ayn Rand was an excellent example of a materialist who smuggled in non-material premises in subtle ways. Ways that I think...

Indeed! The fact that the scientific method - that is the ACTUAL scientific method - works at all, turns out to be proof that the materialist worldview is self defeating by its own terms and therefore MUST be false... If materialism is true, then all our thoughts are the result of nonrational...

I could not agree more! I don't even understand the point of making such things up! Where is the pay off? Whoever that clown is, she has to know, unless she is just delusional to the point of literal insanity, that she's not saying anything that there's any real foundation for and that any...

Well... AS we have them, right? The point holds, either way.
