@JonahDispatch To Nicean Christians, denying the Trinity is another Christ. The Mormons reject the Trinity based on the teachings of Joseph Smith, not primarily from studying Scripture.

@jason_howerton @realJeremyCarl There’s another option which is vote for a write-in candidate. Adultery is disqualifying. Heresy is disqualifying. So pick a third guy. Don’t accept the lesser of two evils paradigm.

@DouthatNYT @AndrewTWalker At one point in the debate, Pinker gives his “secular” rationale for morality. People should follow the golden rule because society is better if everyone acts as such.

But he never explains why morality is intrinsically good or good regardless of how it affects society.

@jean_twenge Is this a case of social contagion?

@Ed_Realist You should graciously admit when you are wrong. It takes strength of character to recognize when you are in error and not be defensive about it.

@Ed_Realist He dated and married his 2nd wife 3 years after the divorce. Before you make confident sounding condemnations, you should check the basic facts.

@ChrisCillizza Is there a video recording of the DC lawyer’s testimony?

@OldGoldHawkeye @XAVIAERD @AdeleIsla Almost all kids want two loving parents present in their lives rather than lots of money with an absent father

@LilaGraceRose What children want most is their mom and dad to love them and love each other, and be committed to each other. As a society, we call this arrangement “marriage”

@jean_twenge What is the number for 2024? I can’t get past the paywall. 😕

@jdgreear This is a gracious and humble response

@gavinortlund @megbasham I watched your video. My heart goes out to you. I can really tell it saddens you that Christians are accusing each other of being wolves and selling out the gospel. These are inflammatory words, and views on climate change do not rise to that occasion.

[thomist @thomist_PI]

@gavinortlund Excellent reasoning
