Theology student at @seuniversity. I write about Christianity. I also like spaceflight, Lewis, Tolkien, and French Fries.

It's worth knowing that at the time of the Protestant Reformation, the word "Protest" had a positive meaning: "To affirm with solemnity; to make a solemn declaration of a fact or opinion" (as well as a negative meaning, which continues today) 1/

@Andrewnsnyder Ok, ok, I'll get off X and go back to my studies!

[Keith Kelso @kakelso]

@Andrewnsnyder I'm told I've been grafted in, so yeah, I'm a fan. (Not a reference to the modern nation. But since it's the only democracy in the Middle East, I like it ok, too.)

[Keith Kelso @kakelso]

@Svigel How did you know??
...
Oh, you weren't talking to me specifically.

[Keith Kelso @kakelso]

@Andrewnsnyder I've heard this before, but it gives me chills every time.

[Keith Kelso @kakelso]

@Robbservations2 @DrFrankTurek You have overwhelmed me with screenshots from Google searches and strawman cartoons.
But for the record, I certainly never said there was no evidence for Christianity, I only said there was no extra-biblical evidence for Moses, and maybe there never will be.

[Keith Kelso @kakelso]

@allahsprophet69 @RantyAmyCurtis I already said I don't like Keith Olbermann, why are you asking again?

[Keith Kelso @kakelso]

@Robbservations2 @DrFrankTurek "Moses most probably never existed." Same thing was said about King David just 32 years ago...

[Keith Kelso @kakelso]

@Robbservations2 @AngelArmy150232 @DrFrankTurek Well, the gay priests certainly weren't living according to Christian teaching, so maybe they were atheists! Good point! There are a lot of atheist priests out there.

[Keith Kelso @kakelso]

@Robbservations2 @AngelArmy150232 @DrFrankTurek There are lots of LGBT child molestation scandals. I bet there's plenty of atheists among them. Atheistic beliefs are usually not brought up because it's not as scandalous as when it's a Christian. Because Christianity is the source of moral standards that the West is built upon.

[Keith Kelso @kakelso]

@Robbservations2 @DrFrankTurek Yes, books of poetry and wisdom are non-historical in nature and have zero extra-biblical evidence to back them up. You're very smart.

[Keith Kelso @kakelso]

@Robbservations2 @DrFrankTurek Ooh, you got me with an AI summary of "scholarship." I give up.
Scholarly consensus is ever changing, and it's always changing toward the accuracy of the Bible. A century and a half ago, the "scholarly consensus" was that the Hittites were made up by the biblical authors.

@RWMaloneMD @bobmill14548888 Vance and Rubio seem like the frontrunners for '28. I like them both, but I think DeSantis would be a better President. I'd love to see him as VP and then POTUS before going to the SCOTUS, but I also wonder who will replace Alito and Thomas, which sadly might be soon.

[Keith Kelso @kakelso]

@Robbservations2 @AngelArmy150232 @DrFrankTurek Yes, but Christianity has never denied that people are sinners or that people would claim to be Christian who weren't. People in power sometimes abuse power. That's no different in atheist orgs or in any other religion.

[Keith Kelso @kakelso]

@Robbservations2 @DrFrankTurek Incredible oversimplification. Many books of the Bible are historical in nature and have a lot of extra-biblical evidence to back them up. The Koran does not.

@Not_the_Bee I first read this as "Cops said coach punched student one too many times for saying 6-7."

[Keith Kelso @kakelso]

@ryanburge Interesting. I was raised Assemblies of God, and I now attend a Non-Denom Pentecostal church with AG roots. But the church my wife and I visit most often is Episcopal. (I would bet that more than 13% of that particular congregation identifies as Evangelical, though.)

[Keith Kelso @kakelso]

@DVirtualAnomaly @Daily_MailUS Didn't say I did understood the Trinity. I understand Christian theology and the DOCTRINE of the Trinity, and I'd be glad to have a conversation about it.

[Keith Kelso @kakelso]

@allahsprophet69 @RantyAmyCurtis 🤣 Good one!
