Rekindling Owen
Our objector raises a few more confused objections, positing a nonsensical idea that the atonement somehow makes men ‘neutral,’ which I do not believe at all, nor know of anyone who does. @Either Christ atones for the sins of people when they believe and thus limited atonement is true in some regard. This is understood by the idea that the imputation both ways only occur when someone believes. But Christ died 2000 years ago for the sins of all as Thibodaux states. Christ atoned for the sins of all, but such that forgiveness is contingent upon faith in Him. Who … Continue reading Rekindling Owen
Transgender Hinduism
I remember discussing with a college student the issue of transgenderism. I challenged the distinction between gender and sex and pushed it further on being absurd. They then pulled out their textbook for one of their classes(Humanities) and they referred to the Hindu religion as a sort of proof for transgenderism. 1. From my understanding, most leftists are not Hindus. So, it really isn’t relevant to what arguments I would use. The idea that transgenderism is found in ancient cultures is irrelevant to whether one ought to think there exist more than two genders. How many silly ideas have existed … Continue reading Transgender Hinduism
Traditionalist Intuitions
There was a thread on Facebook that I participated in discussing Calvinism. Here is my edited helpful form of a confused conversation: Leighton Flowers: If you redefine human freedom to mean “doing as one desires when those desires are theistically determined,” then sure. But normal people don’t do that. Just Calvinists. Brian Knapp: Leighton Flowers actually no – not all compatibilists are calvinists. And to say “redefine” is to beg the question. And to use the word “normal” as you did is to poison the well. Congrats – you’re 0 for 3. Phillip Jackson: Brian Knapp what poor refutation, my … Continue reading Traditionalist Intuitions

Refuting Catholic Authority
I like Pastor Winger for willing to stand against the errors of Rome in a stranger fashion from most classical apologist(William Lane Craig, Michael Jones, etc) I also recommend this article pared with it because it corrects certain statements passed over: http://triablogue.blogspot.com/2019/10/refuting-catholic-authority.html Here are his other videos in regards to Roman Catholicism: Catholicism Evaluated Biblically Continue reading Refuting Catholic Authority
Forced Transgenderism
The recent case that has outraged many conservatives and anyone with a brain is the one where a young boy is being forced to act like a girl by his mother. State-sanctioned abuse is very upsetting and surely we need many to speak against it before it is made law of the land. The issue is that it comes to us as no surprise in the light of abortion and infanticide. Children are merely the whim of the mother in the land of women’s rights. A woman has the right to kill her child and now the consistency to abuse … Continue reading Forced Transgenderism
Thibodaux’s Atonement and Legal Fictions
Thibodaux has written a response to me in his comments on his “Arminianism is cancer” article. Here are my thoughts: We have a little more from the same objector on Owen: @He argues that if you believe Christ dealt with sin/sin guilt or whatever makes mankind guilty before God, then it follows that all men must be saved. That follows if an only if the arguer assumes that the atonement saves people apart from faith. @It never states the people will be saved apart from faith. Indeed, it doesn’t state it outright, but he necessarily must presuppose as much for … Continue reading Thibodaux’s Atonement and Legal Fictions
Brant Bosserman’s Trinity Debate
Role Reversal
It seems to me that we have a bit of a strange reversal of political ideology in the western world. In the past, most had to accept socialist and communist ideologies on the basis of brute force, but somehow the western world is coming to accept it voluntarily. It reminds me of something Milton Friedman said: Continue reading Role Reversal
