    Do Democrats fall in behind Kamala Harris?

    As people have said here and elsewhere in news articles the optics of rejecting the first black woman to appear at the top of a presidential ticket would be pretty bad for the party so obsessed with putting black women everywhere. It would have to be the ultimate indication that they want black...

    The Manifestation of the Spirit for the Common Good 1 Corinthians 12

    ... and you keep coming back to this insistence on speaking in tongues. The insistence that the presence of the Holy Ghost must be evidenced by speaking in tongues is a specific denominational stance. You can use as many words as you want about the specific instance in Acts 2. At the time...

    USA Democrats a Threat to Democracy?

    But, but, but, it's the Nasty Republicans who are the threat to democracy. Never mind the Democrats ignoring the election and letting a small group decide who else gets to play, it's that nasty orangeman who is the danger. Never mind the Democrats using the DOJ as a blunt instrument to stop...

    The Manifestation of the Spirit for the Common Good 1 Corinthians 12

    ... and yet you insist on demanding certain signs that Scripture does not demand, based on a very denominational interpretation of one very specific passage. ... and yet you do expect speaking in tongues to be a sign of the Holy Spirit. Why one and not the other? Scripture is equally silent on...

    Here's why the "free will" argument cannot be justified if God is all good

    Your argument is that you cannot see purpose in it and from there you conclude that no purpose exists. It's the same as you've presented several times now. You can believe without fully understanding, no? Unless your argument is that you cannot possibly believe in something that is beyond your...

    Automated Payments

    It's all very convenient until you find you can't stop it and the company won't stop it until you jump through their process, which is designed to be as tedious as possible in the hope you won't ever get around to completing it.

    Here's why the "free will" argument cannot be justified if God is all good

    You keep saying you've explained it while your argument remains little more than "I don't see the purpose of this, therefore no purpose exists. Other people saying an argument is valid doesn't mean anything. You've made accusations of ad hominem attacks while throwing around your own logical...

    The Manifestation of the Spirit for the Common Good 1 Corinthians 12

    The people speaking in other tongues were heard by those around them who spoke the tongues naturally. People heard the simple disciples speaking in their tongues and marveled. It served a purpose. If I receive the Holy Spirit in the privacy of my own living room, or in a church surrounded by...

    The Manifestation of the Spirit for the Common Good 1 Corinthians 12

    So we're back to the assumption that what happened in Acts 2 is prescriptive and must therefore happen every single other time the Holy Spirit is received? Someone speaks in tongues for a time, regardless of whether it serves any purpose or not, and then stops speaking in tongues at some...

    The Manifestation of the Spirit for the Common Good 1 Corinthians 12

    So not all speak in tongues, but we should all speak in tongues. What's wrong with this picture?

    Who will replace Biden if he drops out?

    It's hard to say. Sidelining the VP in favor of someone else would be a very unusual thing to do, especially since the Democrats have made such a big deal lately of putting black women in every possible position. Having made such a big thing about black women it would make sidelining the black...

    Here's why the "free will" argument cannot be justified if God is all good

    But you haven't debunked it. You've merely countered it with some variation of "God doesn't do what I think is good, therefore God isn't good". It's not an ad hominem attack at all, it's merely an observation that it's a rehash of an old argument you've presented many times, and which has been...

    Biden testing positive for COVID

    Not at all, but it does give him a convenient out. Perhaps the party faithful will accept the line that he's "been under the weather for some time now" as an explanation for why he's been the way he has, and somehow it will all be spun as if everything about the process is as perfect as it could...

    Here's why the "free will" argument cannot be justified if God is all good

    You seem to be rehashing the same arguments as before, based on the fundamental assumption that if something seems bad to you it must therefore be bad. You thinking God should behave in a certain way doesn't mean God must behave in that way.

    Biden testing positive for COVID

    I wonder if this will be the cover that allows him to gracefully step away from his re-election bid without having to admit that he hasn't been up to the job for some considerable time now.

    Is DEI really the answer?

    Well, yes, which is why I differentiate between the laudable concept of equality of opportunity and the pointless attempt to create equality of outcome. As I said in a previous post DEI attempts to fix the wrong problem. There's no reason why we shouldn't have more of whatever groups are...
