Hi again, t8,

I’m a little puzzled about where you want to go here.  You said you wanted to go directly to Scripture, avoid all middle men.  Then you want to start with Tatian. If you have read Tatian, then you well know that he is noted for presenting largely philosophical arguments with little reference to Scripture.  If anything, he seems to…[Read more]

Hi again, t8,

I still think you and some other here need to be far mare careful in what you say to me and to one another.  A lot of times you do go way over the line and inappropriately fire off inflammatory rhetoric.

Hi, t8,

So where does that put on  the question of homosexuality?

Hi, t8,

Yes, I am proud of my education.  I took a lot of very hard work and sacrifices.  Why shouldn’t I be proud of it?  No, I don’t think I am an intellectual, I know I am an intellectual. Do you have a problem with that?

Hi, t8,

I have already presented biblical passages addressing the Trinity.  Where were you then?  I do not like repeating myself.  You say you’ve studied up on the Trinity, right? OK, then you should be well aware of what passages the Trinitarians cite. Furthermore, my immediate concern here is the hateful and disrespectful way some members ta…[Read more]

Hi, t8,

True, we should work so as to correct our misconceptions. However, what has been happening in this forum is inappropriate flaming, along with alack of education about the history of teh Trinity. Whenever I try and correct some of these misconceptions, I get rudely dumped on.

Yes, true, t8.

HI, Kerwin,

Your basic claim being what?  Seems to me we are getting way off topic.

Andrew, I definitely do not appreciate the undue name-calling in your recent post.  If that is the way you are going to take to me, I’m done corresponding with you.

HI, t8,

I don’t doubt you have studied some material, I don’t know what, on the Trinity.  However, I also do not doubt that you did not give the matter sufficient study.  There are simply too many claims you make that do not fit the facts of the case.

Hi, t8,

If you want o call me a pro, go ahead.  I did think  of doing my doctorate in biblical studies because I am good with languages, but then decided on theology. I well know that dealing with biblical languages and translations, etc., is a very complicated issue.  If you are in it for a penny, you are in it for a pound.   I am also well…[Read more]

Hi, Kerwin,

Sorry, but I don’t follow that your comments about the scientific method have to do with my previous post. Also, there is nothing wrong in using online sources, provided you are very careful which ones you are using.  Getting into linguistic issues is a very tricky business.  You just can’t  grab up something form some online sour…[Read more]

HI, Andrewe,

Those people who are addicts do in fact need drugs. For example, alcoholics going cold turkey can die. As to people not needing  God, truth is, they do make a God out of something, whether it me money, power.  The Stalinisitc  Soviet Union stated officially there was no God, yet Stalin took on godlike powers.

HI, Kerwin,

Well, since you didn’t go to college with me, then no, you really don’t know how much PCI was taught , now do you?  Now, let me ask you another important question:  If you were me, how would you respond to the post you just sent me?

HI, Kerwin,

Well, if you are avoiding  liberal-arts courses, then you really have no idea  what goes on in them, do you, no real idea what you are talking about? So why comment?  Also, how much real experience have you had wit  PC?

Hi, Kerwin,

I understand Scripture defines homosexuality as a big no-no.  That isn’t the issue.  The issue is:  What biblical laws are we going to hold to and what not? Believe me, no sensible believer is going to hold to all of them, unless, of course, you are not going to eat ham and wear clothing of two different fabrics.

HI, miia,

As I tried  to explain, sometimes we lose touch with God because we lose  touch with our depth and breadth of experience.

Hi, again, t8, Again, I suggest you  do a more thorough study of church history before posting such comments.  You are way, way off here.

HI, t8,

I do not like talking about other members behind their back.  However, since you brought up Nick.  No, he is no test at all.  He is simply making  a pest out of himself with me.  I have absolutely no  time of day for that kind of nonsense.

No, that isn’t at all accurate about the  actual historical development of the trinity.  Also, you have completely missed my b point about  organic unity and connectedness. Sorry, but you actually have.
