"Research among Catholics in the Netherlands in 2007 shows that only 27% of the Dutch Catholics can be regarded as theist, 55% as ietsist /agnostic/deist and 17% as atheist.[21]" 🤔🧐 See deslegte.com/god-in-nederla…

@Symphony_res Satire die je deelt als ragebait. Lager kan je intellectueel niet vallen.

@MikeWingerii Annihilation? Bring it!

Your physical death is not as scary as eternity without God.

@AgainstAtheismX You are lying to christians Are you wilfully trying to misinform them? What makes you feel the need to do that?

Don't believe the lie of Atheism. You are not worthless.

@JDVance You are lying, and will be remembered only as a liar.

The entire European press is singing the president’s praises right now, amazed at the deal he negotiated on behalf of Americans. Tomorrow the American media will undoubtedly run headlines like “Donald Trump Only Got 99.9 Percent of What He Asked For”

@MorganHousley1 Define porography, and explain how you want to practically and legally enforce the ban.

We need to ban pornography/OnlyFans. At the very least, we need age-verification for pornography sites. They are a societal cancer.

@MikeWingerii "Houses don't exist because that's not what houses mean to me." 🤦‍♂️

Same-sex marriage doesn’t exist because that’s not what marriage means. It’s like saying I got a vegan steak. It’s not a real steak. It’s fake. When you ask me to affirm it as true you ask me to lie about the nature of a precious thing that is at the very center of human society, God’s design, and human well-being. Obviously, my main point here is about steak.

@BXMMA @Archaeopterix66 @wendelltalks Do you really think there is even one case where groing up like that has absolutely no influence on your adult behavior ? 2/2

@BXMMA @Archaeopterix66 @wendelltalks What if you become a politician that battles drug-abuse ? What if you become a social worker that works with child victims of addicted parents ? What if your trauma causes you to suffer from social anxiety. etc...? 1/2

Which worldview has a more positive impact on society, Christianity or Atheism?

@WhatlsLifeYo @EricLDaugh you seem easely distracted.

@EricLDaugh holy smokes Obama is going to prison 😂

🚨 HOLY. SMOKES. A political nuke just went off in the White House briefing room. REPORTER: Are you referring former President Obama to the DOJ for criminal implications? DNI TULSI GABBARD: "Correct." "The evidence we've found and released directly point to President Obama LEADING the manufacturing of this intelligence assessment [of Trump-Russia]."

@BXMMA @Archaeopterix66 @wendelltalks On only some people ? Or on all people but only on specific times ? Or on all people but only on specific parts of behavior ?

@KindKerfuffler @Archaeopterix66 @wendelltalks Sometimes but not always.

@BXMMA @Archaeopterix66 @wendelltalks nature = our genes, biology, physical handicaps, diseases,... nurture = our upbringing, social context, psychology,... Do you think those have no influence on someone's behavior ?

@KindKerfuffler @Archaeopterix66 @wendelltalks It depends by which lens you view this from. As I said I have a biblical anthropology. I believe man’s nature is fallen into sin and it’s corrupted. If you’re viewing this from a naturalistic lens then our nature is what our chemistry is and biological makeup is.

@BXMMA @Archaeopterix66 @wendelltalks So you don't deny that nature and nurture inform behavior ?

Well that’s because if that’s the case then again we have no choice in the matter we’d be just dancing to our DNA as Dawkins put it. I will say I don’t believe we have any libertarian free will. We do what our nature entails and my anthropology might differ from yours since I hold a biblical worldview I believe man’s nature is to sin.

@BXMMA @Archaeopterix66 @wendelltalks Let me doublecheck : You deny that nature and nurture result in behavior ? In other words: behavior is independent from nature and nurture ? I don't think i have ever heard anyone claim that.

@KindKerfuffler @Archaeopterix66 @wendelltalks I don’t believe that so.

@BXMMA @Archaeopterix66 @wendelltalks If you are a hard determinist that would be true and dependent on you use of the term "choice" can concord with a compatibilist view. In any case, it is in no way "arbitrary" is it ?

@KindKerfuffler @Archaeopterix66 @wendelltalks Put it like this if we’re all just a bi-product of our chemistry and environment then we have no choice on how we behave.

@BXMMA @Archaeopterix66 @wendelltalks If it's in the set of "not random", that includes "random choice". It's the opposite from random choice.

@KindKerfuffler @Archaeopterix66 @wendelltalks I said random choice. Please don’t misrepresent what I said.

@BXMMA @Archaeopterix66 @wendelltalks They result in certain behavior : intersubjective social norms. Do you disagree that nature and nurture result in behavior ?

@KindKerfuffler @Archaeopterix66 @wendelltalks And how do those things give us moral oughts?

@mdowstfl @Purrymann113 Did god know before he created anything that evil and the most horrible unbearable suffering would enter his creation ?

God is perfectly good and perfectly free — but His freedom is inseparable from His nature, which is always directed toward the good. He does not do evil, not because He lacks freedom, but because evil contradicts His essence. In contrast, God created angels and humans with free will, but without perfect goodness. Their freedom includes the capacity to choose wrongly — and from this misuse of freedom, evil entered the world.

If God created everything and evil exists. Why is God regarded as "all good"?

@Purrymann113 Because by "good" they just mean whatever fancies god. Even if it is the most horrible thing we humans can imagine. That's how and why they can defend and justify any atrocity.

@BXMMA @Archaeopterix66 @wendelltalks Like those in chemistry, biology, psychology, sociology, ...

@KindKerfuffler @Archaeopterix66 @wendelltalks Like?

@BXMMA @Archaeopterix66 @wendelltalks binding ? I don't see how that question is coherent in this context. Processes and systems like in chemistry, biology and psychology lead to an outcome. By definition that outcome is not random. You say arbitrary == random Then the outcome is not arbitrary.

@KindKerfuffler @Archaeopterix66 @wendelltalks Are these systems binding to everyone? If not then it’s arbitrary
