Plantinga's "Free Will" defense contradicts Christianity
#55
RE: Plantinga's "Free Will" defense contradicts Christianity
I appreciate that you don't think that, but why would I sit here and argue with you over the fact that the christian god and the jewish god are not the same god? I'm commenting from the point of view of cultural anthropology - not statements of the articles of your faith. Similarly, it seems beyond absurd to engage you in any conversation where you're forced to take the ridiculous position that the moralities described in either book are the same moral system.

You're allowed to be a christian instead of a jew. You're allowed to have a different moral system than the one the authors of the OT possessed. You are a christian, and not a jew, and you do possess a moral sensibility disparate from those authors. The same was true of the authors of the nt.
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!
