Read the book of Job. If you want the cliff-notes (pardon me if I get some details wrong, this synopsis is from wit): God was proud of Job and wanted to make him into a saint. The Devil was allowed to test him. Job lost everything, and became plagued, all his loved ones told him he would be...

I've found an amusing article on the topic: https://intellectualmathematics.com/blog/galileos-theory-of-tides/ Snippet from article: First things first. How do the tides work? As we know today, “the ebb and flow of the sea arise from the action of the sun and the moon.” That’s Newton’s...

You mean Gallileo? Did you know that Copernicus was the one who invented the Heliocentric model, not Gallileo? Did you know that the church successfully disproved Gallileo's arguments using Tycho Brahe's points. Gallileo was putting forward a flawed argument for Heliocentrism, an argument by the...

Just wait until you realize how many scientists throughout history were educated by a church.

Here is my proof of God: To preface, I think that many people have the vulgar idea that concepts within the consciousness are meaningless imaginations, so St. Anselm's proof, though completely ironclad, is often ignored because it is unintuitive. So I will put forward a few ideas which are not...

Matthew 21:28-32 28 But what think ye? A certain man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to day in my vineyard. 29 He answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented, and went. 30 And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I go...

You can't have this negative attitude towards people and expect to be happy. You're creating your own loneliness by walling yourself off from others.

If it is this bad, where rapes and assaults are occurring, CALL THE POLICE.

I used to think the exact same way, but the truth is - we have no enemies. Mankind's enemy is ourselves, we struggle against the sins which we ourselves are guilty of, accusing others of being our enemy and thus becoming their enemy. Therefore, we can no longer view a person as a Christian or a...

Do good in everything you can but claim no credit for it. That is what it means to be saved by faith and not by works.

Then this is my answer to you on the topic of God. So then, everything that you can perceive, exists solely within your conception? I agree completely! And if God exists within the conception, then this is the basis for St. Anselm's proof and Descartes' proof! By accepting the idea that...

You talk about consciousness now? What instrument do you use to measure it?

On the contrary, famous and influential philosophers like Descartes almost never make logical errors in their deductions. It is, after all, their job, and their works are heavily studied and can be translated to symbolic notation for logical verification. When their ideas are attacked, it is...

It's a matter of cultural interpretation of God. The point of my quoting the Tower of Babel was that mankind was intentionally divided, because Man is too proud to have the full revelation of God. Having this, Man would begin to think he was God, like what New Age claims. New Age has the right...

God be with her

I suppose this is a rather incomplete answer. Here is the complete answer: Genesis 11:1-9 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. 2 And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there. 3 And they said...

I'm not talking about science, I am talking about Rationalism. Science is not the be-all end-all. Another name for science is "Natural philosophy". It is a branch of philosophy, a method for arriving at knowledge, but it is not knowledge itself. Now, I will add a footnote that there is...

Did you know that there is an entire school of thought called Rationalism, which uses reason rather than observation to prove things? There is a major flaw with pure empiricism. I call it the headless chicken fallacy. Imagine a chicken on a farm. Every day, the farmer comes and cleans the coop...

If you really want to get philosophical, then consider this. God is No Thing. That is, God is not a thing. Where nothing exists, there is only God. Now imagine you are floating without a body, in a total void without life or matter or light. You might conclude, the only thing that exists is...

God caused the situation, and God ends the situation, what has changed in between? It can't be that God changed the world because of us, but rather that God changed us, and then, having accomplished His purpose, no longer needed to maintain the challenge placed upon us and gives us our relief...
