@RandalRauser Growing up in my church, we only ever sang the chorus (we were Pentecostal not big on hymns). This is the first time I learned there was more than just the chorus. But on its own, I think the chorus is worth singing and praying. I guess it depends on how you parse the words.

@redeemed_zoomer Do you consider the different sects of Judaism in the second temple period I.e. Pharisees, Saducees, Qumran, to be schismatic?

[Джеймс Скот @JamesBulgaria]

@kamilkazani Maybe they just use the narrative of the past as an excuse for their current biases more related to current events, but I am not wise enough to be able to parse those two things out.

[Джеймс Скот @JamesBulgaria]

@kamilkazani I don't know when I have conversations with people especially people with a more "nationalist" bent, there is definitely an anti Muslim attitude. Definitely activated by the current events, but the anti "turkish/muslim" narrative they are raised on is not for nothing

@DPGBehler According to Johnathan Haidt’s thesis we all make most of our decisions based more off emotions than reason

@DPGBehler Awesome I just gotta do that with my two girls this last year! Congrats!

@DPGBehler @TomHicks2LCF And you can say they don't belong in the cannon but postulate that the Apostles still took them seriously and they affected their world view.

@jdpritchett @DPGBehler @ThoughtCrimes80 How does the “love” in love your enemies differ from the love your neighbors? What does Jesus mean by it and why would it be controversial?

@Anteportas7 @Maks_NAFO_FELLA It doesn't look like he will need to...

@NickQuient There are tones of Catholic conspiracies in Russia

@DPGBehler Tim Mackie on the QnA episode on Jude recently argues for them being from a previous marriage.

@MattThiessenNT @MAttThiessen do you have a substack?

[Джеймс Скот @JamesBulgaria]

@DPGBehler Years ago in my Sunday school class I had some Hebrew roots people. I didn’t argue the pagan origins of Christian holidays, but I just made the argument that what Jesus does is redeem pagan things and if he can’t redeem a pagan holiday, how can he redeem a pagan human?

@kamilkazani Even to answer the question you are asking here the Trad would have to have the moral clarity you are saying didn't exist (if I am reading you correctly)

[Джеймс Скот @JamesBulgaria]

@kamilkazani And Tolkien as a trad Catholic would definitely answered that question as "hell, yes"

[Джеймс Скот @JamesBulgaria]

@kamilkazani LotR is more nuanced than that. Golem shows what a hobbit could become if he/she chases power same as Sauron having his origins as "good". There are other examples of this as well.
