@GeoffKlein3 @CatholicPrimer Faithful preaching of the word of God, administration of the sacraments, and maintaining of discipline.

[Daniel Hoffman @ds_hoffman]

Spectacular self-own.

SCOTUS decisions can be and have been overturned.

[CatholicPrimer @CatholicPrimer]

Protestants have a Constitution with no Supreme Court, only local courts issuing conflicting rulings.

Catholics have a Supreme Court, a final ruling.

@GeoffKlein3 @CatholicPrimer At 2,000 years removed, you have to make a judgment about which aspects of continuity to prioritize.

[Daniel Hoffman @ds_hoffman]

@GeoffKlein3 @CatholicPrimer Yes, people, including you, do have to make determinations about which authority to follow.

[Daniel Hoffman @ds_hoffman]

@GeoffKlein3 @CatholicPrimer Ultimately of course God must judge. But there is no special problem here that isn't simply a problem of all communication as such. People sometimes disagree; we should try to reach consensus, and those in positions of authority must make determinations.

[Daniel Hoffman @ds_hoffman]

@GeoffKlein3 @CatholicPrimer It's hearers, hopefully with the help of pastors and ministers of the word.

[Daniel Hoffman @ds_hoffman]

@CatholicPrimer It's not a problem with SS, because SS is not a claim about or prescription for administrative/operational unity, it's a claim about the ontological status of the written word of God.

[Daniel Hoffman @ds_hoffman]

@knownasilya Of course many are.

[Daniel Hoffman @ds_hoffman]

Christian scholars using “BCE” and “CE” in their published work is embarrassing.

[Daniel Hoffman @ds_hoffman]

@CatholicPrimer There was plenty of debate in the early republic about nullification, where state courts would simply reject Supreme Court interpretations. That debate was resolved through force. Court authority/interpretation was in question, not the Constitutional text.

[Daniel Hoffman @ds_hoffman]

Also, if anything this would be an argument for conciliarism, not papal monarchy.

@Write4Republic If there are aliens, then they are aliens, and demons would still be demons.

You want Greco-Deco, I want Martio-Angloroman. We are not the same.

If I were emperor, eggs on ketchup would get you exiled from the country, and this would be a fitting punishment since ketchup itself would also be banned (i.e. not legally available here).

[Chef 👩🏻‍🍳 @chefsevenn]

Ketchup isn’t an option, what are you putting on these eggs?

[Daniel Hoffman @ds_hoffman]

@chefsevenn It's literally not spaghetti.

"And he was told, “Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, desiring to see you.” But he answered them, “My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and do it.” (Luke 8:21)

Why did Jesus relativize Mary in this way?

[Daniel Hoffman @ds_hoffman]

@IVMiles @PLeithart @jamesrwoodtheo What’s ecclesiocentrism

[Daniel Hoffman @ds_hoffman]

@13thschizoidman Nah, it’s cringe.

[Daniel Hoffman @ds_hoffman]

@s_drue91599 Doesn’t really effect what I buy; but always lame.

[Daniel Hoffman @ds_hoffman]

@SeanDurns @FreddyLA7 This is a fabulous book.
