Yes I do, that is as long as they have a valid scriptural point, I will investigate the argument and then make a decision based on what I find, sometimes this process can take years. Yes, I have changed my mind on a few things.
Savan Wrote:If you can not sum up your belief structure, why are you debating about it?
My belief structure is to large to sum up before a debate, taking things one step at a time is the best way to debate, trying to cover to much in a debate leads to confusion for both sides.
Savan Wrote:If you make a change in the middle of a discussion, how will the person be able to call you out on it if they did not know your belief structure before hand?
Who says it's I that would make a change in the middle of a discussion. Like I said the debates would be limited to parts of my belief so confusion doesn't creep in. If another part of my belief system need to be brought up as support for the discussion then, I would explain that part before using it as support.
Savan Wrote:Also would you listen to them if they are not christian? Your first statement makes me doubt it. There is nowhere else for a christian to go, well I do know some people who wait for divine inspiration through meditation.
Depends on what a non christian has to say, I listen to some here that challenge my beliefs, this helps me to grow stronger, forcing me to search scriptures for the truth. Most divine inspiration is revealed through the scriptures.
Savan Wrote:However, there are as many interpretations of the scripture as their are people. Knowing the interpretations a person founds their belief on is important, not just a knowledge of verses.
Bold statement you made and the same one I've heard here many times, yet no one has been able to back up such a quick and irresponsible statement.
Knowledge of the verses is how one builds a foundation of belief, being honest with what one learns from the scriptures is what establishes a true belief from them, they must be exercised against themselves to show the truth.

How do you know that Richard Dawkins won't be judged by the Great Flying Spaghetti Monster? What gives your god the monopoly on judgement?
Because He reigns as King over the universe He created. The FSM is only one good fork away from destruction.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
