Reasoned Apostate

Formerly Reasonable Globie

The world isn't flat. Recently set aside a Christian faith due to applying logic and reason to the Bible.

@aeschulman @mudman03 @reaganreese_ @DailyCaller Precursory reading of the lawsuit seems to think it's too broad, not that a ban on generative AI political ads is unconstitutional.

My understanding is that they are worried the law broadens deep fakes to illegal in all electronic communication.

@MenWhoSawJesus @GodlessEngineer And the sin of Sodom was.... What exactly?

@michaer27 @Guardians_Bane @Thedon9994 @ApoloJedi_ Oh I'm not, just disappointed. It's always fun to lay a specific trap and watch them waltz into it.

wants to see his attempt to wiggle out.

[Reasoned Apostate @ReasonApostate]

@Guardians_Bane @Thedon9994 @ApoloJedi_ I'm just sad he wouldn't engage with this

@ApoloJedi_ @TheHumanSpoon Didn't Paul say that? What an absolutely stupid thing to say.

[Reasoned Apostate @ReasonApostate]

@ApoloJedi_ Martin Luther said "Women have broad hips and a wide fundament, that they should sit still and keep house, bear and bring up children."

So I guess I'll pass on the opinions of Christians when they start talking about what a woman is.

[Reasoned Apostate @ReasonApostate]

@ApoloJedi_ Then you have the theological view:

Thomas Aquinas said women are the defective male.

Tertullian called women the devil's gateway.

Augustine thought women were the part of a married mind focused on earthly things: administration, survival and material possessions

[Reasoned Apostate @ReasonApostate]

@BiblicGrounded Likewise, "murder" is "the wrongful killing of a human". So murder is objectively wrong because wrong is part of that definition.

What makes the killing wrong is the entire debate.

[Reasoned Apostate @ReasonApostate]

@BiblicGrounded "objective morals" can be established definitionally. When you define "good" as "that which promoted human flourishing", "bad" becomes "that which causes unnecessary suffering"

everything would then fall on a scale between those two extremes. Much like health, there no 1 answer

[Reasoned Apostate @ReasonApostate]

@ApoloJedi_ This isn't even evidence of flooding 😂

[Reasoned Apostate @ReasonApostate]

@JesusSaves1500 @TiredOfDaReight "evil" (as defined through biblical laws) is caused, called for and commanded to words/actions attributed to god throughout the Bible.

So either the Bible is inaccurate or god does evil (by his standard)

[Reasoned Apostate @ReasonApostate]

@ApoloJedi_ @TheHumanSpoon You know, maybe he's right. If god doesn't exist, what can be known about him has been made known to me.

We could talk about that first part of v20. How can something invisible be clearly seen? If he meant that we can infer a diety's power and nature from the world, I disagree.

[Reasoned Apostate @ReasonApostate]

@ApoloJedi_ @TheHumanSpoon Didn't Paul say that? What an absolutely stupid thing to say.

[Reasoned Apostate @ReasonApostate]

@ApoloJedi_ @TheHumanSpoon Atheism is the status of lacking a belief in a god. I lack a belief in god. Therefore atheism is true.

[Reasoned Apostate @ReasonApostate]

Not sure what he's going on about church and state here for really.

The early church decided on doctrines that make you a "real Christian" all the way back in the 4th century

And Christians have been doing it ever since...

[Reasoned Apostate @ReasonApostate]

Howerton showing his lack of historical understanding as always.

The correct answer here is that "Christians" decided that it wasn't enough to follow Jesus. They decided that you've got to swallow all of the dogmas and doctrines in order to be a Christian.

[Josh Howerton @howertonjosh]

Christians have not recently been adept political thinkers. So, 2 things on this…

1) We should respect Mormons enough to be honest with them that, by their own self-identification, they are “not creedal Christians” (what Mormons THEMSELVES will say, bc they understand they disagree with many/most of the core doctrines of Christianity that are expressed in the earliest creeds)

2) Christians need to develop the ability to understand there are two overlapping but distinct realms: the church and the state (Jesus, 1 Peter, Augustine)

Therefore, there will be some people that are on a DIFFERENT TEAM spiritually (not Christians), but on the SAME TEAM culturally (aligned in almost all political / cultural goals).

If you don’t understand this, you will oppose people you should befriend in the political/cultural realm, and you will befriend people you should differentiate from in the church/spiritual realm.

@ApoloJedi_ @TheHumanSpoon If something is true, it can't be falsified.

Atheism is true.

Atheism can't be falsified.

[Reasoned Apostate @ReasonApostate]

@ApoloJedi_ @TheHumanSpoon Atheism is unfalsifiable because it's true.

[Reasoned Apostate @ReasonApostate]

@EndWokeness The votes all went up and the expected turnout went up...

Are people this bad at math?
