i'm really not meaning to be coy there, sorry. We are basically discussing "inheritance" now, and we share a language but do not hold the same definitions. You guys are determinists, right, you believe that you could possibly declare some Absolute Truth from Scripture, and you likely believe that you know where you are going when you die, or that the Israelites all had the same clear, united notion that you do about "afterlife," which i'm pretty sure is not true; well, i know it isn't, it isn't even true today, just go ask a Jew their beliefs about hell for instance...but anyway, the point is that we are all subject to laboring under false pretenses, and the word "faith" is abused into the cure for them imo, namely by turning "faith" into "belief," and belief into absolute truth.
you guys might notice that practically speaking almost no one has "belief" any more, we all have what we consider "absolute truths" now lol, premises that we begin from, rather than end up at, right? We just still call them "beliefs," hypocritically
