  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

    Molinism

    That of course was never claimed, nor was it the point. Here it the point again in case were really interested. I just cut and pasted it over for you. :) Regarding 2 Peter 3-9 Hi Behe. You are correct. Classical Calvinism resolves the dilema with the two separate wills of God, forging a...

    Molinism

    Hi Behe. You are correct. Classical Calvinism resolves the dilema with the two separate wills of God, forging a separation between desires and decrees. Nonetheless, Calvin did not pervert the text as DrSteveJ does, who teaches that the "any" of verse 9 is "the elect." Calvin and many other...

    Molinism

    You start another thread if that`s what you want. You called, on this thread, the view that the "any" of 2 Peter 3-9 is a reference to mankind, "Arminian exegesis." I quoted Calvin`s commentary to demonstrate beyond doubt that such was his intepretation as well. I also noted that many Calvinists...

    Molinism

    Friend, no point in assuming. Calling oneself "Dr" on an internet message board doesn`t necessarily = a degree earned in the classrooms of a well accredited institution. Religion has more mail order stuff going than any other field, and that`s all assuming he has the paper at all. Something to...

    Molinism

    "Arminian exegesis"?? :P Yes, God is not willing that any should perish, but as is the anaology in 2 Peter, and like in the days of Noah, he will not always strive with man (Genesis 6-3). Both truths hold true to bible literature, in spite of some of the preposterous interpretations forwarded in...

    The theory of Original Sin is FALSE

    Ahh I have been waiting for someone to post this popular abuse of the "filthy rags" verse. Out of context usage, once again... This following write up is by Steve Jones. Filthy Rags? by Steve Jones "But we are all like an unclean thing, and all of our righteousnesses are like filthy rags"...

    As you wish. I think it a rather important challenge to your reasoning and it would bee interesting to see you address it, Post 318...

    The theory of Original Sin is FALSE

    Okay so I`m cheating a bit, gonna run through this quickly then it`s the Olympics and work, probably for the rest of the week.... Okay so you don`t believe in sinning animals that deserve to be roasted alive, good. :) Where does Moses say all infants are guilty of Adam`s sin? But even if he...

    The theory of Original Sin is FALSE

    BTW, if you are still so confident in this deduction, why not back track and answer Post 318 from DepthDeception. You seem to have overlooked it. He has made a strong challenge to your hermeneutics or lack thereof...

    The theory of Original Sin is FALSE

    So is that your position, that the animals were sinners? Sounds like taking fundamentalism to some real extremes. I take it you beat your dog... lol You and others keep asserting this ludicrous and clearly "unjust" notion but have yet to prove it scripturally. I`m not doing it all over again...

    The theory of Original Sin is FALSE

    Yes, the OP, quite a simple, clear, and very concise point it was, and I`ve noticed reading through that the opposition has made little to no attempt to address it.

    The theory of Original Sin is FALSE

    That`s all good, but even giving that this story is fully historically accurate rather than a legend to teach a moral lesson, the argument doesn`t end with your deduction. What about the animals that were burned alive and made to suffer? Were they sinners or just collatoral damage? Take a...
