    I can't tell if you are putting this in the quote exactly so that I can't respond to it or not. You assumed a lot of things I did not say or intend to say. I would have liked more discussion with you and for you to ask more questions about my views before you dismiss what I said based on a...

    @digits, this video reel talks about the concept you are thinking of quite clearly.

    Random Religious Thoughts

    Grace is God's favor that is completely unmerited. So, in the case of a person going to hell, God does not owe them grace. Yet, God provides the means of grace if a person accepts the sacrifice that Jesus made for them. Accepting Christ's payment for your sin is the way you get grace. From that...

    What is your understanding of grace? How would you define it?

    What makes you say that? I am not really sure what point you are making.

    Random Religious Thoughts

    Good question. I believe from the moment of conversion, we are ever being conformed to the image of Jesus. I do not believe this ends at death. Jesus was perfect, but the Bible says Jesus "Learned obedience through suffering." How is it that someone who is perfect can be perfected? As such, yes...

    You know what is so interesting about this passage? There are different words for love in Greek, unlike us English speakers, who only have one word for it. When Jesus asked Peter, "Do you love me?" He was asking about agape love. When Peter answered the following two times, he answered with...

    The "I" mentality of Trump

    Christianity has had a positive effect on the world. Currently, the influence of Christianity is going down the drink, and the morals that go with it as well. As Obama pointed out, "We live in a post-Christian world." And in some sense, you can't put the toothpaste back in the tube. We could...

    The "I" mentality of Trump

    The EU is falling. The birth rates alone are the demise of the West. The US is going to fall next. And I feel like you have conflated technological advancements with moral advancements. The morality in the West today is not better than it was in times past. In many ways, it is worse. This does...

    The "I" mentality of Trump

    No, can't agree with this at all. You will always have the elites who call the shots. It just takes on a different form. I think about all the lies the media told about COVID that were proven to be complete BS, and they ended up having zero consequences for it because it was those who were rich...

    The "I" mentality of Trump

    I don't believe morality progresses with time (except to say it gets worse over time). I think the issues we are talking about today are the same issues that have been brought up throughout history. Technology progresses with time. Morality does not.

    What Are You Listening To Right Now (Part 15)

    I think one of the reasons people like Oliver Anthony's music so much is that it bypasses the intellect and goes straight to the heart.

    copied for change...sorry

    I had a situation yesterday where I got pretty angry. My cousin was using "laugh emoticons" to my very serious (and quite generous) responses to what she was saying. I was trying to engage in a fair sharing of arguments and ideas, and she viewed it as an excuse to call me a hypocrite because of...
