The contract was called everlasting. Why would you think it expired?

Your are circularly deducing the concept of "supernatural" in this case. If God exist, then whatever nature is, would be an extension of that God. In an Apophatic sense, God would be closer to "conscious nothing" that gives rise to reality of events. It's no more magical than (in loose...

It's only refuted if we begin with certain assumptions about reality that you haven't really justified as viable. If we begin without any assumptions... from perspective of conscious experience, then we are not dealing with the same context for cosmological argument that you would filter...

I think there should be some Google Translate version that converts Christian Lingo into "everyday secular English". A lot of time there's nothing deep implied, but merely an aphorism used to convey some generic desire to make sure that whatever one does resides within the boundaries of "How...

So, a computer therefore can't truly determine the true status of differentiating between A and not A?

I'm just curious. Do you think that God knows all Truth through experience, or mere observation. For example, would God really know what it's like to rape someone in the experiential sense?

I didn't really name these "Christian existentialism". I think I share a lot in common in regards to necessity of axiomatic structure that gives us grounds to formulate everything else in relation to these assumptions. Again, lately I don't really have time to write online essays few...

I wouldn't say that I'm a deist. First of all, I don't think that religion is static in its narrative. IMO Both science and religion is a puzzle that's humanity is solving, but coming from two different modes of our perception. Science is solving the external context as it relates to...

Again, you bring this topic up, and I reply to it :). You asked the question and I answered it. If you want "on topic" replies, then ask on-topic questions instead of jumping to playing into the typical objection of historical "slavery and ills of religion". Could Dr. Strange see any...

I wasn't replying to your OP, if you haven't been paying attention. It was a progressive discussion about the nature of "rules" that apply to God. I've made an analogy to QM realm in which classical physical rules that we observe here and now don't apply to the QM realm. To which you...

God is source of infinite possibility of "the rules" that can be expressed into any number of possible realities. I keep telling you that you can't cast the logic of the higher-level abstractions on the lower-level events, and you keep trying to force the conversation in the direction of the...

What we call science today is a very strict and reductionist interpretation of the broader context for "sciencia" that it was. First of all, the blind appeal to pragmatic utilitarianism doesn't really consider that all that we've done with science that you are referring to is to find a way...

All of our understanding of logic is driven by the constants observed in physical reality. What you call a circle or a square, for example, doesn't exist at quantum scale. There you have events that manifest to us as circle and square by means of recurring events that we can anchor to and...

Well, I can't really comment on your preferences. It's a free country :). All I can say is that both logic and whatever epistemological framework you adopt will be built on intuitive foundation, and these are not superior to that foundation in some settings that are dealing with foundational...

All labeled experience is a human/social construct. What we call a "soul" is first and foremost a subjective experience of self that we tend to delineate from experiencing body or external reality.
