  • [quote author=esakla23 link=topic=4994.msg67509#msg67509 date=1171347850] "Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him."  -1 John 3:6 "Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him an…
  • “Does your Teacher not pay the temple tax?” To ascertain the full significance of this passage one must first recognize the intrinsic intentions of the temple tax collectors. Ultimately intent becomes prior to content….and the actual…
  • I really don't think so David. This theory is not new to social construction by any means. In fact, the first philosophers to conduct such cosmological precursors were ancient Arab philosophers seeking to defend the monotheistic worldview. I …
  • That's an excellent question. There are a few hypotheses, none essentially conclusive. The atheist might denote a theory of universal retraction to which the universe loses enough potentiality that in the similitude of a reverberating basketb…
  • Most certainly. However, I will confine my response to a minimum for the lack of time preponderantly available. (If any reader would seek a more in-depth response with greater detail I will gladly recommend valuable sources.) Science has…
  • Granted. However, in my typical critically laden (somewhat skeptical) overview on such pertinent topics such as these, I will have to remark that I have yet to see a definitive response; one that does not dodge the major issue at hand; to why the …
  • A definitive response corroborated by the affirmation of reasonable explication that underscores the actual heart behind the Law and avoids stifling by the letter of the law. As Iqbal expounds, the revelation of the New Testament is means of asc…
  • [quote author=PrincessMary link=board=10;threadid=4898;start=0#msg66641 date=1169689297] sorry i deleted as 1 of my family members had logged on instead [/quote] Ironically, I have not yet discovered whom this "mystery" logger may in fact be. …
  • Not to be intrusive, But recapitulate for me agian, how does the collocation of particles in the atmopshere (or if in refrence to space-- dark matter) affect evolutionary theory and it's ramification upon theological grounds? That is to say, a…
  • The conflict arises, David, when one comes to carefully review the evidence that supposedly undergirds the theory of evolutionary progression. Now keep in mind that the threads of this discussion have already disqualified any notion of Darwin…
  •  Nevertheless EpNomos EnTaio,      as Saint Augustine clearly demarcates, the abuse of a religion should never be conflated with the actual theology of that religion. The very atrocities actualized in the name of Christianity starkly oppose the …
  • The problem still lies in the origination of that spark of life. If your a Darwinian evolutionist, the origin of first life is prescribed by an unintelligent randomized process. Yet even then, precisely how that first life (in detail) comes about…
  • You may want to attempt to persuade your parents to take you through some slight gesture. For instance, you may want to call your abouna to call your parents. Or prehaps there is a mean to convince your parents that there is some essential event…
  • John,    I can understand where your aprehensive concern is exhuming from, however, I really don't believe that utilization of the Big Bang theory can really subvert theistic rationale....I use the theory as an unwavering means to actually prove t…
  • I believe one can subsantively understand the defining threads of unity when one first comes to aknowledge the antonymous strands of diversity in life. Unity is meanigfully subsidized for the individual only when one can relate unity to an absolu…
    in Unity Comment by gmankbadi January 2007
  • There seems to be a series of post-hoc (the assumption that Genesis One and Two hold invariably relative purposes) attempts at dissecting the accounts in Genesis, construing a misplaced grid of reason for God's actions. Initially, a notable d…
  • David, In leu of the lack of appropriate evidence for evolution, I cannot see how one could seriously espouse such a volatile theory. There simply stands no credible warrant for evolutionary theory that surmounts theories of Intelligent…
  • Well posted....affirming the reality of the New Testament's historical interminable adequacy and, ultimatley, the very reality of the person of Christ Himself.
  • Neverleavemelord, Might I recommend a source to help enlighten you on the Mormon faith....that is in the midst of your conversational apologetics with your friend? You should probably take a look into a one Dr. Walter Martin and his intraspecti…
  • Eskala, The idea of evolution is a prevelant one in our society today. People tend to assume that the theory is actually much more theoretically true then science gives it credit for. Nevertheless, it is significant that one define his te…
  • I believe that a large portion of the problem here seems to stem around differentiating the notion of evil from that of good. The discussion thus far has held an implicit assumption that the nature of good is essentially equivalent to the nature…
  • Have you ever asked yourself why would we even consider the notion of a supernatural reality if all we were created to know was a natural reality? Have you considered that if God really did create us, that it might be logically imposiible for our…
  • Furthemore, having a "god" of the natural order is proximatley identical to holding pantheistic beliefs. Yet, such a "god" would not be a single God, for all of the natural order could be comparable to him. In such a case God would be distributed…
  • True Iqbal, Philosophical argumentation has become a tool for the expostion of faith....yet even as such, the idea of untainted human reasoning is simply unfounded. For every tool may be used in accoradance with light or da…
  • Essentialy, what people seem to forget is that while no logic or reason can validate the existence of God.....for all of man's reason is enmeshed within a finite comprehension of True Reason, no logic nor resoning can prove the non-existence of…
  • It's often rare that one finds individuals who can appreciate the utilization of philosophical clarification for the faith that the saints have preserved for so long. The forthcoming argument (a derivative of Dr. William Lane Craig's brilliance) …
  • Hizz-Child, The reason we say that man needs an absoulte refrence point to maintian any sense of sanity in his life...is precisley for the reasons you stated. Man, by defintiion is a finite, created, dependent being who's very reason for existen…
  • Now, granted that where we are born is a predestined factor on the part of God, I do not believe that this evokes further argumentation for the very influence brought about by our friends and family to also be predestined. You would first need t…
