I am not going to wade through all your posts.  (May 20, 2018 at 11:25 pm)Godscreated Wrote:There is no valid college course in magic woo woo.

You must believe that Christians are really stupid in that you believe we can't see two different stories. Well it is not the Christians who are stupid, we reason rather well. LOL @ you reasoning well. Are you not aware that this "more information" can contradict the previously given information? RE: Open discussion of the Christian Why We're Here thread

Theology isn't the study of magic, it;s the study of stories about magic. Pretty much a specialized branch of western lit.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

See, this is what I was thinking but then it occurred to me that most of them studying it believe it as well. It's like studying the history of stage magic and actually believing that magicians really do saw women in half. RE: Open discussion of the Christian Why We're Here thread

Oh, idk, there are more secular religious studies programs than sectarian seminaries in the us. You;d think...if the majority of people seeking such an education really did believe, that distribution would be reversed as a pure effect of demand side economics.

I am not sure how many theologians actually believe but certainly more believe in belief as both the people who don't really believe and the people who do really believe both believe in belief.
Even if they're total frauds and they just believe in belief because it helps further their career. Of course when so many of the 'beliefs' are non-literal it's not actually Christianity anymore. This video helps illustrate that: Claiming to be a Christian is not enough. |
