I am not arguing against what the scientists are saying. I am arguing against your (Aaron's) interpretation of what the scientists are saying. Much like when two people argue the same scripture as saying different things. No one is disagreeing with what the scientists are saying. I am...

So, I've been reading Hawking's "A Brief History of Time". On page 18, Hawking is discussing the idea of relative rest using the illustration of how a ping pong game can be played on a moving train. To those on the train, the ping pong ball can bounce straight up and down, while to an observer...

I had decided to abandon this discussion, but after reading a bit of Steven Hawking's "A Brief History of Time", I decided to revisit it. Mainly, because in the very first two chapters he destroys the argument of geocentricity as anything but a coordinate system. I'm on my tablet right now, but...

Seems more Mormon than Baptist, to be honest. The Mormon belief is that we, as men, are the angels that stayed with God when Satan fell. The demons are the third that fell. Incidentally, old Mormon teaching believed that black people could not be saved because they were a third of the angels who...

Let me show you what you just did. (Bold mine). See what you did? You just said that you don't care what scripture says, you care more of your own opinion. Now, let me school you on why the rest of your post is wrong: Let's start with logical fallacies. Firstly, you're using the "appeal to...

I will never admit that, as I believe it to be a very wrong statement. In fact, I believe it to anti-Biblical. I've gone in very much depth before on the subject here on the board, and so won't do so again here. But I've posted scripture after scripture showing that your view is incorrect. You...

If we are to take that passage literally, what happens when one person refuses to forgive a sin, but another forgives? Does God break His word to one, and honor His word to another? Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

In my mind, a boycott is fine. It is simply refusing to ship. However, I have long held that protesting a business (picketing) is a form of terrorism, on a couple levels. Firstly, it could scare away potential customers. That's using fear to get your way (terrorism). Secondly, you're trying to...

You're right. He read my post and then PMd me. And in the PM he told me not to bother responding, because I was going right back on ignore. What a coward. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

Firstly, I think you're only the second person to put me on ignore. Secondly, by placing me on ignore, you are showing that you do not care about truth, you only care about your perceptions. If you can still see this post, I urge you to do some investigation into your claims on D&D. Many claims...

I didn't respond, because no response was necessary. I've responded extensively before on the famous cases, including the Witte case, and how people jumped to conclusions where there was absolutely zero evidence outside the testimony of a woman who was proven to be a liar who engaged in...

Corporal punishment is a tool that should be used, however today (judging from stories and opinions I've heard from peers) it is an oft misunderstood and misused tool. It must be administered in love, and not out of frustration. Personally, I rarely use it unless I have to, as I am a man prone...

Does anyone else see the irony in this statement? Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

I've always thought that if there are other dimensions or universes, that the cross happened simultaneously in all of them. That the cross somehow is an event out of time, occurring in all timelines. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

Yes, you do. Last year you were blaming the devils for inserting demon emojis instead of realizing that you were just typing the right combination of text. [emoji48] Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

That passage definitely lets us know that we don't have to boycott. But it doesn't prohibit it either. Essentially, as the passage shows, it's a conscience thing. If you can't shop at Target in good conscience, then don't. If you can, you are free to. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

Firstly, you're ignoring my post. Secondly, you're failing to define reality. If by reality you are talking only about a coordinate system as it relates to our position in the universe, I agree. But, if you mean it as anything other than that, I completely disagree. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using...

No. It's: Aaron: Scientists are saying A. Me: No, they're actually saying B. Aaron: You're women and children. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

Ok, I'm at my computer and finally able to put together a good post. The rest of the time I was on my tablet. Aaron, I am not arguing Einstein and Hawking. I'm arguing your interpretation of them. Similar to when two people use the Bible to argue their points; no one argues what the Bible is...

I personally don't think it's a mental disorder. I think it's a sin disorder. Much like calling alcoholism a disease. If we call it a mental disorder, we are granting that it is caused by an imbalance of chemicals in the brain, and this takes away the sin from it. Essentially, we wouldn't blame...
