The Youtuber PineCreek was in a comment section: PineCreek: if it is true that most are lost, wouldn’t it be better for God NOT to create anything? Random Person: PineCreek, on what secular basis do you determine what is “better” … Continue reading Up PineCreek Without a Paddle
[responsivevoice_button] Jimmy Stephens: Each of these consequences can be rephrased as a precondition. We might start with the first consequence, “No person determines moral facts.” This is more or less the is-ought gap. If there are moral facts, they must … Continue reading Is Christian Ethics Subjectivism?
The American Athests Bible “Contradictions” Refuted. There is a quote by Johnathan Swift that goes “Falsehood flies, and truth comes limping after it.” That is to say, it is easy to spread misinformation, and it takes time and work for the truth to come out.

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
Jimmy Stephens shares his thoughts on the issue of whether someone can be an agnostic: The agnostic is committed to the position that he does not know whether God exists. With respect to worldviews, the agnostic is pluralistic, believing that no worldview sufficiently answers whether God exists or not, at least none that he knows of, at least not yet. All the while, agnosticism presupposes the autonomy of humankind. The agnostic holds that he does not know whether God exists, that he does not have access to any worldview capable of answering the question, and that in the meantime, he … Continue reading Is Agnosticism Possible?
