@KalshiFB @SportsCenter What is a woman?

[🌶️The New Mexico Calvinist🌶️ @collinbrooks_]

@thrawnftw @JPuncut @Alex_Ortodoxie OK now I think I am tracking. What makes having an infallible canon list irrelevant to orthodoxy? That means you do not know if the Scripture in your litrugy is actually Scripture? And why do you think having an infallible canon list is crucial to Protestant traditions?

[🌶️The New Mexico Calvinist🌶️ @collinbrooks_]

@thrawnftw @JPuncut @Alex_Ortodoxie Even if Protestant ecclesiology is inconsistent in all its forms, that doesn’t justify orthodox apologists from using special pleading as a key polemic against us

[🌶️The New Mexico Calvinist🌶️ @collinbrooks_]

@thrawnftw @JPuncut @Alex_Ortodoxie “Not having a definitive, infallible list of which books constitute Scripture is a problem for a Christian tradition.”
How can that statement be true only for Protestants and not Orthodox? I don’t understand how your answer about liturgy accounts for this obvious special pleading

[🌶️The New Mexico Calvinist🌶️ @collinbrooks_]

@thrawnftw @JPuncut @Alex_Ortodoxie It sounds like the Protestant Presupposition here is the laws of logic and consistency.

[🌶️The New Mexico Calvinist🌶️ @collinbrooks_]

@thrawnftw @JPuncut @Alex_Ortodoxie All you did was state that books show up in Orthodox liturgy. You have yet to prove why an Orthodox can use not having a definitive canon as an argument against other tradition's while it fails to provide a definitive canon.

@thrawnftw @JPuncut @Alex_Ortodoxie So if I can’t do X that’s bad and can be used against me. If you can’t do X, it’s not bad and can’t be used against you. Got it.

[🌶️The New Mexico Calvinist🌶️ @collinbrooks_]

@thrawnftw @JPuncut @Alex_Ortodoxie Perfect. So it stands to reason that the Orthodox Church cannot criticize Protestantism for failing to provide what it also fails to provide, yes?

[🌶️The New Mexico Calvinist🌶️ @collinbrooks_]

@thrawnftw @JPuncut @Alex_Ortodoxie And do you claim the Orthodox Church is completely unified and has clear dogmatic teaching on which books are inspired?

[🌶️The New Mexico Calvinist🌶️ @collinbrooks_]

@thrawnftw @JPuncut @Alex_Ortodoxie It is when 90% of your apologetics to Protestants is “bUt HoW dO yOu KnOw ThE cAnOn?!”

Is predestination an infallible teaching of the Catholic Church?

[T.D. Barrett @TD_Barrett]

@ShamelessPopery @ThoughtfulSaint Joe the Calvinist notion of divine reprobation is essentially identical to the Thomist notion of the same. Ie, if God truly wanted to save the reprobate He could, but He chooses not to.

[🌶️The New Mexico Calvinist🌶️ @collinbrooks_]

@The_Idol_Killer By the same standards you too are a formal heretic who thinks Christians in the “ancient” churches may be saved. So what’s the point?

Friends, it took some time as there were a couple holdups. BUT--I got my test results. NEGATIVE! No microscopic cancer DNA found in my blood, and that includes testing to match the DNA in my lung lesion!!!!

Doesn't guarantee I won't have another battle with cancer in the future, but in terms of likelihood it is VERY good news and I'm in tears of gratitude by myself while my fam is at a movie. (I'm supposed to be writing 😂).

Feeling overwhelmed all of the sudden and am going to try to take some time off this site for awhile to enjoy the goodness of God.

Thank you for your prayers, all. Grateful to know that while X may not be "real life," the friends I've made on here are absolutely real friends!!

@RevElijahA When I first read Vermigli I thought he sounded molinistic, until I remembered he lived and died before Molina wrote.

How many defenders can skate backwards and keep up with McDavid like Makar did here? Unreal play #GoAvsGo

[🌶️The New Mexico Calvinist🌶️ @collinbrooks_]

@TD_Barrett @sincead33 @redeemed_zoomer If true, is that a problem? Back to my point, this demands the Roman Catholic not have divine faith on many important issues like in my example of Thomism vs Molinism. Why criticize RZ when he too lacks divine faith on important issues of theology which he believes true?

@SamuelC13877599 Thanks Samuel! I should have kept in mind that you were responding to lots of people.
