But I'm not concerned about Anglicanism, and I say this while also not being a proponent of Progressive-ism. In the meantime, I'll stick with Kroeger & Kroeger due to various hermeneutical and historical reasons they offer in support of women within the Church. If even half of what they've...

Well, I'm sorry that my viewpoint fails to meet your approval.

I've had 15 years of meaningful things to say here on CF. And what I said wasn't meant to be an insult or a personal attack, so please don't construe it as such. I just think that there are some questions that are eye-rollers for obvious philosophical reasons. Thank you.

I made a similar retort, but from another angle, in that other thread about Priestesses in the Church. I'm still waiting for folks to respond to it even after several years. While I don't agree with Aristotle's mean, I do acknowledge that there's more than one brand of empathy and I don't...

... the OP article partially represents the sort of thinking that provides one of several reasons why I don't join more "staunch" congregations of fellow believers. It's not as if I haven't tried to connect with them in amenable ways, but what invariably happens is that because of what is...

... I can't believe I actually have to talk to people who would ask me such a question. Seriously? You're not trolling me, are you? ..... oh, on second thought, don't worry about answering. I see. You're Catholic. No wonder you've asked that question.

... and I'm not sure why you decided to posit this as a response to something I wrote all the way back last August of 2023. I wasn't even talking about that context as far as I can remember or tell. Again, I'm not sure what you're getting at. I'm not Pro-Abortion and I detest anyone even...

The Theory of Evolution neither glorifies and honors God nor disparages or dishonors Him. It is simply an observation about the change of biological life in and throughout what we understand to be Natural History.

Like this kind of thing has never happened before in history, right? Still, I understand some of the concern ...

... that's a very cheap attempt at an example of exception. It doesn't even qualify as an anecdote. Please, do us a favor, and when you have a real example to consider, present it rather than a hypothetical, 1 in a 100 million potentiality.............. Steve.

You go, Sis! :cool: ... and since I have a whole other interpretive stance on both Tradtition and the Bible, I have little (if no) problem with sisters in Christ leading the way, even as clergy.

You're missing my point. My point is that you go too far in equating evolutionary thinking, of whatever forms, with atheism. They're not the same and one does not by any necessity follow the other. Also, I'm not an atheist, and neither are many of the posters here. I would suggest you stop...

Do you even bother to look at the info provided by each poster offered just below his/her avatar?

Paidiske is.

... yay.

I'm not against a "more scriptural" emphasis, but I'm not as cognitively fortunate as some other Christians----for myself, I'm just a crippled realist who can't see how other people find reading the Bible to be such a simple task, especially since I've studied so many more educated individuals...

I'm not here to tell you what to think, so I'll just take things with a grain of salt and keep my education intact despite what others here might think. Be blessed.

One thing to keep in mind is that macro evolution takes place on the level of populations of species through long swaths of time; it's not merely through the accumulation of micro mutations and/or epigenetic changes on a generation by generation level. You seem to be under the impression that...

Facial likeness? I didn't say anything regarding a specific characteristics King Solomon's children. You're right. My reading comprehesion hasn't been fully developed. I'd assume that since parents don't produce offspring with MACRO level jumps, we'd expect a fish from millions of years ago...

Sure. A number of Darwinists may say that the world created itself, and phenomenologically it does kind of look that way, but mere appearances don't settle the epistemological problems involved with God's possible presence in the World. Moreover, the problem here is in our knowing who gets...
