(And if this is all something Swedenborg dreamed after eating a spicy meal, please say so.)
FNM said that free will violated doctrine. I replied that New Church doctrine was not violated and presented a summary of the doctrine. Whether the doctrine was actually revealed or not was never the issue.

No, you did not reply that "New Church" doctrine was not violated. The complete lack of this information is what prompted my original question. It not having been an issue is not relevant as your claiming it was makes it an issue. And in the context of a discussion of theodicy, you better damn well believe whether or not it is revelation matters.

It's bullshit like this which is why I no longer have any respect for you and consider you a person without character or morals. (That, and you're a shamelessly partisan lick spittle, more interested in seeing your side "win" than you are in the truth.) Thanks for your honest and candid reply, "Christian."
