    I’m in a strange place: very conservative, but not Christian

    Utter nonsense. Phobia = irrational fear. Opposing sexual deviancy is NOT rooted in irrational fear. It's just an Appeal to Ad Homenim.

    I’m in a strange place: very conservative, but not Christian

    Jesus was referring to those Roman guards who were torturing and murdering him. You are a bad guy because Scripture says that God has provided numerous proofs but you are too stiff necked to humble yourself to his Works and Words. The book of Job delves into that. God asked Job where was he...

    I’m in a strange place: very conservative, but not Christian

    I think it is plural. Questions. And good. I'm glad you asked. :) I may have to break up my responses into several posts. I never said yet that God is the absolute. I'm not sure why assert we are not absolute. Consider Jefferson's Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness. Happiness and Liberty...

    I’m in a strange place: very conservative, but not Christian

    Trinitarianism is a 4th century man-made idol. Proof of this is the complete absence of it in Scripture. To be clear, when I write that the trinity is not found anywhere in Scripture, I mean that neither the word nor the concept of the trinity is explicitly in the Bible. To avoid the inevitable...

    I’m in a strange place: very conservative, but not Christian

    Biblical unitarian Christian. I've rejected the trinity at the start, many decades ago, as an obvious violation of the 1st and 2nd Commandments. As I grew in wisdom and stature I realized it also violates definition, language usage and logic. Consider the juxtaposition of the famous John...

    I’m in a strange place: very conservative, but not Christian

    My nature matters not. It is not about me. What matters is the undeniable aspects of reality. Your quip of not knowing anything is a word game you play with yourself. To propagate it, you must throw a 'not' into what you know. Just because there are things we do not know, does not mean there is...

    I’m in a strange place: very conservative, but not Christian

    We've covered this before axioms are conceptual not rooted in perceptions. It seems you cling to a subjective, mystical viewpoint. What you see or don't see is irrelevant to what there is to see. This is the greatness of Columbus; he pursued a path others did not see and found half the globe and...

    Agreed. That is why I reject the trinity. To say 'The trinity itself is a contradiction' is an absolute.

    I’m in a strange place: very conservative, but not Christian

    Untrue. I've already repeatedly proved it. Beyond that you are setting up some kind of Strawman. There is absolutely no connection between something being noncontradictory with being proven. Let me put it this way. There is an axiom that when you eliminate the possibilities, what remains, no...

    I’m in a strange place: very conservative, but not Christian

    It's a good point you make here. I want to differentiate between language usage (words) and concepts. Relying on how people use words is an exercise in futility AS IF reality is subject to the political process of democracy. Rather focus on the notion of concepts, starting with the concept of a...

    I’m in a strange place: very conservative, but not Christian

    Absolutes are not only proven, they are axiomatic, meaning they are undeniable. Consider this, if absolute truth does not meet the criteria for proven, then "proven" is a concept that has no existent. That is, nothing is proven. And if nothing is proven, then that reveals yet another absolute...

    My Sailor's have a beautifully soft nib. Gives great flex. A real joy to write with. OMG! Me too. I match my pocket knives with my shirt.

    Here's some data on John 10:33

    Just because I reject imposing trinitarian dogma onto unitarian text does not mean that I am not being honest. It's so funny how you pretend my previous post below, did not respond to your litany.

    Here's some data on John 10:33

    In no way is this "Jesus is God." v1 of John does not even refer to Jesus. Not until v 14 is Jesus referred. The most anti-trinitarian book in the whole Bible, John also explicitly tells us at 20:31 that everything he wrote was to prove something other than the idea that Jesus is God; namely...

    Cool! It looks smooth. How is the grip? I have Monticello, Pilot, Platinum, LaBan, Kawaki Sport, Parker & Waterman (Both retired), and Sailor along with Levenger.

    Desperate reach. The verse reads the people took what Jesus said to mean X. This is not a declarative statement of his nature.

    Isaiah 40:13, the DSS and The Holy Spirit

    Not one Bible verse comes close to saying this. The personal name of God is not Jesus but YHWH, who is alone is the Father. This is why these verses exist: 'For us, there is one God, the Father' and Jesus saying his God is the only true God. So clear, direct, explicit and straight foward, even a...

    Isaiah 40:13, the DSS and The Holy Spirit

    The Holy Spirit is waiting on you to show me what verse in Scripture states what you are saying.

    Here's some data on John 10:33

    What verse in Scripture says that? To paraphrase Reagan’s quip about Liberals, trinitarians know so much that isn’t true. :D
