We are PRIVATE citizens, the government should know very little if anything about us at all.
They are PUBLIC officials, we should know damn near everything about what they are doing.
The cameras are pointed the wrong way.
@_madslyn@eMTBrides@panpsyrizzem Because the apostles that died for him lived with him, transcribed his teachings, watched him do miracles etc. if they never saw a miracle or if they witnessed him sin once that would’ve been the determining factor, Jesus never gave them reason to doubt so they died for him
@AlSimmons1980@KarolineGosling You’re just asserting that. Make an actual argument not for choice being a good thing but for a system for raising children that’s better than mommy stays home and nurtures the children and daddy goes out to provide for the family
@_madslyn@panpsyrizzem@eMTBrides Really? Because you displayed in this very conversation that your thinking is more flawed and I think I’ve exercised far more restraint from name calling, more willingness to understand your thought process, good faith argumentation, less closed mindedness, less judgmental etc
@_madslyn@panpsyrizzem@eMTBrides God understands human nature so he understands that people who are so far gone need to start somewhere to move them towards a particular direction which fits perfectly with the nature of Gods grace and his willingness to work with people who are far gone
@_madslyn@panpsyrizzem@eMTBrides It’s because we live in a modern western society that doesn’t have problem such as mistreating slaves bc we don’t have slaves but in a society where owning slaves and mistreating them is common you’ve got to meet them where they’re at otherwise they wouldn’t comply
@_madslyn@eMTBrides@panpsyrizzem It affects us because someone who has nothing but rights is dead weight causing others to have nothing but responsibility to make up for the people who enjoy nothing but rights. You can’t have rights without responsibility because you’re rights are my responsibility
@_madslyn@eMTBrides Sure they’re not equal just like telling a murderer to quit murdering people isn’t the same sacrifice as telling a sex addict to quit sex because one is in need of further adjustment than the other but both are sinful
@_madslyn@eMTBrides@panpsyrizzem But to say that something is good is an appeal to an ultimate form of goodness and if there is no ultimate goodness that goodness trickles down from then goodness itself is just whatever someone says is good from a personal standpoint. We can’t all be right there has to be truth
@_madslyn@eMTBrides@panpsyrizzem Is it not good enough evidence that most historians believe Jesus was a real person and dozens upon dozens have died for their faith in him?
It is a slippery slope to say that morality is subjective because that leads to people justifying horrible acts
@_madslyn@BlewideScorpi0@MuffGrot@eMTBrides The problem is people disagree on the basis for which morality should be based upon and from the atheist perspective all arguments are equally as valid on the basis that morality is made up
@_madslyn@BlewideScorpi0@MuffGrot@eMTBrides I agree, humans have the ability to create a system that works absent God but that doesn’t mean that the idea that morality is subjective isn’t a slippery slope
@_madslyn@panpsyrizzem@eMTBrides I’m the dishonest one? Do you even see the irony in you saying that with the way that you’re attacking me instead of the position? 😂
@_madslyn@panpsyrizzem@eMTBrides Bad faith argumentation.
Like I said we live in the revelation of Jesus Christ so anything that you cherry pick from the old testament isn’t really relevant
@_madslyn@panpsyrizzem@eMTBrides Well baseless in the sense that you can never really know anything for certain. You can’t really know for a fact that gravity is real because you don’t know if life is a simulation and that when we leave the simulation gravity isn’t a thing in reality. It’s about evidence.
