Re: Seeing Things Differently -DanP the apologist excuse.

I think this post got lost on the last page, bumping it here. Can we agree on this idea, MG? I’m eager to hear your thoughts. I’m going to answer this with a little help from A.I.: The concept of free will is a complex philosophical topic, and there are different perspectives and theories on its na...

Re: Charity from the heart.

“So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doin...

I have to say, one of the most classic times on the different boards I experienced, was at the "World Table," after DCP announced, paraphrasing, he would bring an army of apologists in to decimate the anti's....both he and Russell were given some of the lowest scores and both suspended by the LDS m...

Re: Seeing Things Differently -DanP the apologist excuse.

Next sentence, same thing. Makes no sense. To me. Can you explain why this sentence has meaning for you? Maybe some concrete examples? Regards, MG Free will means a will free of restrictions. For example, if my will was completely free, I could will myself to believe I was an elephant. I don't have...

Re: What is Gravity?

You’re working towards a more well rounded view of physics. You’ve discovered the disconnect between the scientific theories of the very large and the very small. The attempt to unify them into a single cohesive theory is a very exciting project that has been going on ever since these two theories ...

Re: Russell McGregor: Online Mopologist Extraordinaire

Coincidentally, that same Proprietor decided to create a blog post attacking another religion today: … this article expresses quite well some of my objections to Calvinist theology: “Why Calvinism Cannot Be True And Is It Heresy?” I’ve never forgotten a comment that John Sanders, another Protestant ...

Meh. I’m over him. Angry guy saying angry things to make people feel mad, all to stroke his personal epeen. Not a good ambassador for for the church or for Jesus. But that’s plainly not the objective.

Re: Numbers...

I agree you have the subjective experience with base10 numbers and the English alphabet, but those are experiences generated by our minds. I think the point that Marcus and I are pushing back on is some idea that these experiences are created by the numbers themselves. Our brains are creating the f...
