The Book of Eli

Recently. Eli Alyala had a conversation with a popular Atheist YouTuber Tom Jump. I’ll give my thoughts about this conversation. Others have commented about the conversations Tom Jump have had at other times. http://triablogue.blogspot.com/2019/03/is-there-no-evidence-for-gods-existence.html The conversation starts with the issue of the foundation of ethics(metaethics). Tom Jump is a moral realist that bases his metaethical view on the basis of human intuition and consensus. Eli presses on the issue of subjectivity. Many people don’t have those intuitions and completely different intuitions. So, why privilege Tom Jump? Why does his intuition have the final say? Tom responds that most people have … Continue reading The Book of Eli

Beta-Male Abortionist

I’m going to share an edited version of the conversation I had with an abortionist over Twitter. Twitter isn’t the best format for these kinds of conversation. So, I have edited my statements to be clearer and left his alone. I also was asked to remove his name and he is fine with being referred to as Beta-Male from now on. The original conversation can be found here: Abortion is death penalty for the innocent. #AbortionIsMurder — Kris (@Kdubtru) June 11, 2019 And to be clear, I can’t get pregnant at all. Neither can you. Only a woman can get … Continue reading Beta-Male Abortionist

Wagner’s Open Theism

Brian Wagner is a common face in internet circles that I remain in. But he is often overlooked because Leighton is more popular, while he is more heretical. He has an odd position on Open Theism. He never responded to my article on Open Theism and I doubt he ever will. I asked him what his form of Open Theism was and he responded: Well, there are many errant definitions of open theism out there, and many open theists that do not believe in inerrancy, like I believe in it. Inerrancy is not foundational to the definition of open theism, … Continue reading Wagner’s Open Theism

Wagering Wagner

I am creating a collection of articles that are in response to Professor Brian Wagner or the positions he takes. He’s an Open Theist professor from Veritas Baptist College. He’s also a close friend to Leighton Flowers. TheCouncil: Wagner on Calvinism For he chose us in him Fishing for God God isn’t Open Why I’m not an Open Theist Leighton Flowers on Romans 8 Wagner’s Open Theism God in Sequence Did God create Time? His positions are often similar to Leighton Flowers. So, here are refutations to him: Soteriology101 Continue reading Wagering Wagner

Cranman’s Achilles

This is a sequel to my previous article: http://spirited-tech.com/COG/2019/05/31/traditionalist-and-eisegesis/ Chris Harris shows a major flaw in the position of Leighton Flowers and John Cranman’s interpretation of Romans 9. They believe Calvinists interpretations of Romans 9 require Paul to eisegete the Old Testament. Chris Harris shows that their method of argumentation is hypocritical given the fact they state and apply the same method Calvinist do and then denounce the method when used by a Calvinist. In Romans 9:25, Paul begins quoting the OT and this starts with a quotation from Hosea 2:23 and 1:10. Hosea is writing about the restoration of … Continue reading Cranman’s Achilles
