So wait.
GitHub is Microsoft?
EDIT: Okay, fuck that. I was just getting all set up there but not now.
I am trying to decide between PyCharm and VS Code for my Python IDE. I was leaning toward VS Code, but they're Microsoft too, aren't they?
I read Earthsea, and it is my professional opinion that Leviathan is a dragon. Which we know is, as they say in baseball, a "tough out."
Maeve like in The Boys? I'm unfamiliar with the name from anywhere else.
You think I mean MEDICINE???
Hold it. There a phone number?
I suggest you look at a few different translations. The word is translated chaos confusion disorder.
Not only that but it's absurd to say that the God of the Bible is a God of peace. In Matthew 10:34 Jesus says, “Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword."
The Bible itself ends with a great battle and a great celebration of victory.
"Traceable origin...as being created by people." You've set quite a high bar for yourself, but I assume you would consider your traceability as.....
Yes, nominally Christian. Raised in USA, fed cornbread and gospel music, prayin' at baseball games.
This is at best a sophomoric argument.
It's like a new postgraduate physics student trying to apply Newton's Laws to quarks. While Newton's laws provide a framework for understanding motion in everyday contexts, the behavior of quarks requires a different set of principles that are part of quantum mechanics. Newton's laws are still valid for macroscopic objects, but do not apply to the quantum realm, where quarks operate.
The laws of reason and logic are dependent on the order God imposed on the universe. God is metaphysical. He is not subject to His creation, BUT, the fact that there IS order and understandable systems tell us that God IS understandable, to a degree. His creation reflects His self. But if you think you'll crush Him in his own vise, you are quite mistaken. There is no epistemological dilemma you'll spear God with
God is a God of order. (1 Cor. 14:33)
Yes it is. It doesn't say immortality, it says the tree of life in every translation I can find, but we're all using translations.
I don't fully understand that, but neither do you. I don't pretend to have all the answers, but I'm not going to pretend not to have the answers I do have.
A good guiding principle for understanding the Bible is the plain things are the main things, and the main things are the plain things.
Certainly? You have a better candidate? Baal? Molech? Satan, perhaps?
You do you; pick a side, deny the battle, anything you choose.
I'm quite seriously suggesting that the God of the Bible, and specifically the Christian God, is is the most perfect God that could be imagined, and yet wholly unexpected as He is revealed. The God of the Bible soothes no one. He ruffles everyone's feathers. He is pure perfect and exacting. Yet there is love and mercy there.
Now, His followers have done a lot to screw up that presentation. But that's as it always has been. In the Old Testament, in Jesus's day, and now, the people of God - even those with direct divine revelation - have been misrepresenting Him.
Joshua 24:15 NIV
But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. [Or the gods of reason, science, and unbelief?] But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.”
