Re: Can God Ever Have An Original Thought?

How could there have been Biblical and Godly prophets if God does not know the future?

Re: WBC

WBC is a sad example of what happens when Calvinism is extended to it's logical conclusions (hyper-calvinism) without being tempered by love or basic human decency. Bart, are you saying that Calvinism, in itself, taken to its logical conclusions, lacks love? Or, taking true Calvinism, then removing...

Re: Is new atheism finally starting to go backwards?

The new atheism has done a lot of damage already, and in my opinion churches in general do not equip their members well to deal with it. Of course, once one looks at the books and lectures from the 3 stooges (Dawkins, Hitchens and Harris), the philosophy is at a kindergarten level, the objections ar...

Re: Alien Life

Because there are simply no feasible places in the universe for life to exist that we know of. This is a correct analysis...HOWEVER, very key here is the part of the phrase that says "that we KNOW of." The universe is a vast and enormous place. We can't see all of it. We can, however, mak...

Re: Alien Life

Alien life is possible but unlikely. Why would one claim alien life to be unlikely as opposed to likely? Because there is simply no feasible places in the universe for life to exist that we know of. For example, you need water and carbon for life to exist, as well as a planetary environment that is...

Btw, look this up before you guys start telling me I'm outnumbered here, therefore wrong. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argumentum_ad_populum August, don't be offended. I can say the same thing right back at you. Ad populum is a fallacy. We all have to asks ourselves here. Are we going to be politic...

Re: Water baptism/split from free will predestination thread

Domokunrox, I think you should consider whether this forum is the right place for you. While we welcome open discussion, the propagating of what is perceived to be heresy by a large majority of Christianity can confuse and mislead many Christians and raise additional points of contention with non-be...

Re: Uncertainty principle

Your atheist friend is arguing for indeterminism, which, per definition, is of course the opposite of determinism. Physical determinism is the counter-argument used by atheists against the Christian concept of free will, where the laws of physics determine all that happens, and even regulates our bi...

Re: Mark 11:24

As many of you know we are dealing with this in my family. All I can say is that it takes a team effort to battle depression...family, church, therapist, school (if applicable), psychiatrist and medication. Use every tool at your disposal, or the consequences may be tragic.

Free will is, basically, freedom of choice and the freedom of our will to choose from those choices.
Ok. Let's hear from a few others too.

Since nothing I post is directly or indirectly addressed, please in form me on a small scale with one question; for I have many more.
