Martin Luther on Reason

[Dannager]

Hope triggers the good feeling you get from the "chemicals"

If it were shown that the sensation of hope was triggered by a chemical release in the brain, would you change your mind?

It's like a river it always wants to take the path of least resistance. Or decaying.

I understand the river analogy, but what did you mean by "perfect"?

Don't say opinions like their facts, God said he was going to do that change.

I'm confused as to how this means that God is unchanging, if he even acknowledged that he was going to change.

"If a man doesn't stand for somthing he will fall for anything."

That adage doesn't necessarily hold true.

When it was created it was better than now therfore it is moving away from perfect.

It wasn't a change it was a promise that he kept.

That adage doesn't necessarily hold true.

really cause there's a biblical one too, set your feet on solid ground.

 

[Dannager]

When it was created it was better than now therfore it is moving away from perfect.

And now you're going to have to define "better".

It wasn't a change it was a promise that he kept.

A promise to change, right?

really cause there's a biblical one too, set your feet on solid ground.

Sure, but what does that have to do with this?

A promise to change, right?

I'm sorry were are you getting this "change" from never heard it before.

And now you're going to have to define "better".

How many things can better mean!!!

Better in what way?

 

[david_x]

The only change he made was widening the field on who could get into heaven, that is what he has always done.
