A pragmatic person would say a spinning ball makes more sense based on every observable planet in our solar system appears to be a spinning ball, let alone the sun and the moon. What is more interesting is the idea that all the light we see from the milky way and other galaxies is just created...

The reason why church and state got separated is because self delusional belief of any individual that their decisions are Gods decisions leads to exploitation and a personality cult. When everyone agrees with you because the benefits are so good to them, it becomes self fulfilling prophecy and...

It appears that Trump has managed to speak emotionally of his innocence and is the victim of the enemies who are murderers and peodophiles. His speeches turn the enemy into a hated army of manipulators, and the source of this manipulation is fake news. Loyalty to him is implied as the source of...

I once had this feeling of knowing something that everyone else had missed. It gave me a sense of belonging and being free. If in ones life you are the bottom of the pile, cast aside, put down, not given attention, grasping at flat earth realities is a kind of side step to belonging to...

I was just putting a simple point to flat earthers that a disk world will not work with our understanding of gravity, mass, rotation and the sea. It is fine to come up with another hypothesis as to the shape of the earth but it has to make sense at the simplest level. Gravity and its source is...

It was pointed out a simple problem with flat earth theories and that is gravity. Water is a free flowing liquid. It always finds the lowest point to fill up from and balance out. So if we were on a disk, it would have to have a thickness. And that thickness would create irregularities and...

Today I took this idea a next level on. Context matters, but in what way does it matter? A theme has developed in my thinking, which is expressed in various denominational trends. Are we victims of our sinfulness, adrift in the world tempted but redeemed, or are we built new creations who can...

I have heard the righteous aspirations of behaviour of believers is just sarcasm to show they fall short so need to rely only on Jesus. Jesus said simply let your yes be yes and your no be no. So God is very direct. For humans sarcasm is means of a put down, but the Lord rules no matter what...

Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake came a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the...

The Flood In all cultures there are records of disasters that wipe out civilisations because that happens all the time. If one is going to be scientifically serious about the flood, you need to look for sedimentary evidence of large movements of water occurring with similar remains in different...

"this thread is about people who think/thought they are prophets" I have wondered reading about Korah and his rebellion against Moses, claiming the Lord would listen to him and his group above listening to Moses was very foolish. He forgot that standing in the Holy place before the Lord...

This is a good question if we are merely obedient robots who must do as we are told and bear no free will or choice. Once one begins to understand we are being built up to be like Jesus, to act on love and compassion for others from our hearts, we are working together with the Holy Spirit in our...

Climate change argument - young people will die from climate change - the truth is our world is heading for a crisis because we are too good at keeping the population alive to 70+. Climate change is a consequence of this success. The hope is our technology and understanding with new sources of...

Roger Stone came across to me as someone who knew how to manipulate the media, to exaggerate and lie about others to get headlines, and then ignore whether it was true or not, because publicity mattered more than content. It is all about making the opposition evil and your side good. This...

Perspectives. All the contradictions in scripture are down to emotional meaning and emphasis. To belong to Israel circumcision was the sign. To belong to Christ, faith in the cross and repentance was the sign. Jesus is the fulfilment of Israel, its foundation and meaning. To hold belonging to...
