You perceive the traditional division of language into equivocal, univocal, and analogical, to be an intentional way of misleading people. Is that right?
Oh jesus christ.
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!

If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Without the outdated notions of equivocal, univocal and analogical that some people still use as some kind of holy validation that immunises from critical scrutiny, it is clear in everyday communication that using the same words with different meaning does not help humanity.

I didn't realize that the use of equivocal language made a person immune from critical scrutiny. The writings of Thomas Aquinas, for example, were intensely debated among scholars for a long time before they were generally accepted, and even today many Christians can tell you why they reject his conclusions. Jacob Boehme's writings were banned in his home country, though a network of rich people circulated them in samizdat and debated them. They were never given immunity from critical thought. And anyway, using the same words with different meanings is hardly exclusive to theology. That's something that happens a lot. 
I know God exists but I don’t want to convince others and don’t want to prove it

Make your own decisions and discovery. You have an opportunity in this lifetime to figure it out. If don’t figure it out then you will just go thru many lifetimes until you do (September 5, 2026 at 4:11 pm)Nay_Sayer Wrote:(September 5, 2026 at 4:09 pm)arundharma Wrote: I know God exists but I don’t want to convince others and don’t want to prove it I know God exists I did not say your God is false that is something you want to say and think |
