Conflicting statements in the bible

[smax]

You’re assuming the majority of people are rational, that’s funny.

Considering that over 80 percent of the world have an imaginary friend, NO.

But I do find it interesting that "the one and only true way" isn't very compelling to the obviously gullible masses.

Even the naive see how distorted and illogical your beliefs are.

It's really this simple:

1. Calvanism best represents the position of the bible
2. The Bible is an extremely flawed book that science and basic logic have thoroughly discredited
3. Therefore, today's Christians prefer a more logical and socially acceptable form of Christianity.

God has two wills; I thought you’d know that since you claim to have been a Calvinist.

Again, graduation vs. progression/digression.

Let me help you:

Will: The mental faculty by which one deliberately chooses or decides upon a course of action

The teaching of two wills is a ridiculous attempt to cover up the obvious negative moral implications associated with Calvanism.

But I'm glad you made the mistake of bringing it up.

How do you know you’re making a conscious choice?

How do you know you are not in a matrix?

And, yes, this is a completely relevant counter-question.

That does not prove you freely chose your approach.

Again, how do you know you are not in a matrix.

Once you trivialize the obvious, you render everything meaningless and unprovable.

More misrepresentations I see, all things work together for the good of those who believe and to bring glory to God, that’s the opposite of meaningless.

Wrong, it's the very definition of it.

You’d have to understand my position first, start there.

Clearly I do. However, I'm hardly proud of that fact, so you should stop trying to compel me to become re-indoctrinated with these silly challenges of yours.

Amen.

So you concede my point. Good.

Your misconception of the doctrines contradict themselves, but that’s a reflection upon your mind, not the actual doctrines.

It's not my fault you don't understand the actual implications of your faith.

You’d get schooled this badly by a flat-earther too? That’s funny, but believable.

You mean God vs. God, right? Isn't that what's really happening here? God is having what you perceive to be a ridiculously one-sided debate with himself?

Right? LOL.

Prove it’s an actual contradiction, set up a syllogism, come on! Nail it!

Don't even need to. The moment you introduced the two wills of God into a discussion about the merits of free will, you slam dunked your own contradiction!

Congratulations!
