    Torrents

    The copyrighted material is wrong, methinks. But there are legitimately traded torrents, if in a minority. You can find them, including lots of public domain stuff (ie e-books from before the 20th Century and public domain stock images).

    If Calvinism is true...

    Of their own merit? A saved man and an unsaved man are in the same situation. Either one is not better than the other. They are both equally precious.

    If Calvinism is true...

    I'm saying that well before calling is the foreknowledge of who would accept the gift available to anyone.

    For creationists: give me your arguments against evolution.

    I'll have to get back with you next weekend. Out to the field for the week.

    You have embryos of the transition species? You have visible evidence of the change? You have evidence of where this assumed transition specie lives? (etc)

    If Calvinism is true...

    Personal worth? What has that got yo do with it? I guess it only matters if God has some standard by which He picks favorites instead of offering a free gift to all.

    If Calvinism is true...

    The option is there for everyone. He is not bound by time, and therefore knows who will choose Him.

    If Calvinism is true...

    This was when He was dealing with Israel. Is this your proof that He purposefully decides not to save people from a situation He created them into and which they are unable to escape on their own? Is this your proof of exclusion? I'm still wondering how this can be a God who "is love".

    Genetic evidence tells you for sure that there's an evolutionary path which includes tons of transition species no one has ever seen?

    I'll just get the study guide from Barron's! :)

    So that's the hard evidence you have?

    Recreational marijuana use.

    Perhaps people like to self-medicate. Everything affects different people in different ways. Perhaps a small amount of something like this could help with depression or anxiety for some people. I cannot pretend to know every motive. At the end of the day, illegal is wrong, but there is almost...

    For creationists: give me your arguments against evolution.

    If it's such irrefutable science, I think there should be evidence of the entire transformation. If I saw no in-between stages, I'd have a hard time believing a tadpole became a frog.
