Do Men have Bodily Autonomy?

i) I bought up IVF and other exceptions BEFORE you raised this point the first time. Then I thought it was because you didn't read my Tweet thoroughly. This time it seems you are choosing to deliberately ignore it to appear "smart" in your blog post. — Shane Fletcher (@Fletch_smf) June 24, 2019 Shane responded to my article written in response to his position. Shane abandons his prior position because I brought up that it is obviously false. His position is analogous to a person that states the NBA hall of fame is filled with only black men. You respond … Continue reading Do Men have Bodily Autonomy?

Fletcher’s Cause

My position is that men are causally responsible for all pregnancies. That’s a biological fact. Women can have plenty of sex & orgasms with 0 chance of pregnancy. I am not sure if you can separate morality and causality, but pregnancy is 100% caused by men’s pleasure, so … — Shane Fletcher (@Fletch_smf) June 24, 2019 i) Men can’t be responsible for all pregnancies given the reason two lesbians can go to a sperm bank. Or suppose we can even make synthetic sperm. Clearly, then a man wouldn’t be causally related. ii) It seems like Shane operates on a false … Continue reading Fletcher’s Cause

Did God create Time?

Dr. William Lane Craig doesn’t hold my perspective on time and he doesn’t hold most of any position that I hold. He and I are on different sides of the theological pendulum. But even he sees that the Bible teaches that the creation event is the beginning of time. So, I’ll quote one of his works: Defenders of divine timelessness might suggest that the biblical authors lacked the conceptual categories for enunciating a doctrine of divine time- lessness, so that their temporal descriptions of God need not be taken literally. But Padgett cites the first-century extra-biblical work 2 Enoch 65:6-7 … Continue reading Did God create Time?

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
