@SantaDecides Is this some sort of emergent bot behavior?

Do they all predictably converge on such statements?

Heck, speaking of convergence and divergence - I wonder if there's some untapped field of bot behavior calculus where you can predict the large scale movement of such swarms...

@mastikim One of the biggest annoyances to me is that almost nobody understands what "proportionality" actually means, even a lot of people in the military.

@jdd_canada @MoritzSchauer I published a book just before AI really became a thing, but close enough that everyone thinks it was AI written because I actually and correctly used emdashes.

I've been debating editing and republishing to replace them.

[EsotericThoughts @Esoteric_Though]

@MoritzSchauer Missing the obvious emdash and in all technical writing it has decided to replace any decision or step with "gate"

@nakedpastor It's not that you HAVE to change. It's that you WILL change

@dressrehersal @EdLatimore It’s supposed to be the beginning of decent but also nobody manages it.

I think more like 12-1400 is a better comparison. 1800 is legitimately good.

@Math_files Billion dollars obviously.

The harmonic series is divergent, but it takes an eternity to get to numbers of any real value. If I get 1/n for each n minutes I'd die before I made decent cash.

@FromPulpitToPew Because being as correct as possible is ideal, and God is simply not a biological male.

You can still be saved and be a Christian and see him that way, but thousands of years of Orthodox Christian teaching and the scriptures themselves make it clear he is not.

@rashmoosten @BarryNothstine @philvischer I haven't seen him actually defending Talarico so much as refuting heresy that started popping up everywhere in reaction to Talarico's inflammatory remarks, but maybe I missed something.

[EsotericThoughts @Esoteric_Though]

@FromPulpitToPew himself in the way he relates to us, but just because he's our Father and our King doesn't mean he has a male anatomy.

"He" is the best term for God but does not fully capture or define his divine essence.

[EsotericThoughts @Esoteric_Though]

@FromPulpitToPew I think you're missing the forest for the trees.

"nonbinary" was used to incite and divide because it carries connotations that do not apply to God.

God is nonbinary in the way a floor in nonbinary - it simply IS, gender is not a characteristic of a floor.

God has revealed...

[EsotericThoughts @Esoteric_Though]

@FromPulpitToPew Where does God say "I am a male"

[EsotericThoughts @Esoteric_Though]

@blucollarbible Not to mention the second verse of the bible describes God as "she."

I'm not saying God's a woman, I'm saying what Christians have always said: God is spirit and transcends biology. His relationship to us is primarily described through masculine attributes.

[EsotericThoughts @Esoteric_Though]

@blucollarbible His teaching is orthodox. Suggesting that God the Father is an anotomical male is what's heretical.

Are you a mormon? Mormon's believe God is an actual male.

Christianity for thousands of years has held that God is not a physical being.

[EsotericThoughts @Esoteric_Though]

@FromPulpitToPew God has never said he is a male. Scripture specifically tells us he has no body. You can't be a male and not have a male anatomy.

His relationship to us is primarily masculine - fatherly, kingly, etc.

But he's not an anatomical male, it's heretical to say so. Are you mormon?

[EsotericThoughts @Esoteric_Though]

@FromPulpitToPew But the bible tells us he is spirit, and acknowledging the Father as incorporeal is traditional, orthodox Christianity.

You're saying God is MASCULINE, which he mainly is, but scripture also uses feminine pronouns/adjectives for him, indicating further he transcends biology

[EsotericThoughts @Esoteric_Though]

@FromPulpitToPew You cannot be a male without a penis and XY chromosomes. It's a physical/biological concept. God the Father and God the spirit are not and have never been physical/biological beings.

[EsotericThoughts @Esoteric_Though]

This is the correct take.
