@NoFilterSkin Is it alive and did that living status begin at conception?

IF YOU BELIEVE LIFE STARTS AT
CONCEPTION, CONSIDER THIS: IDENTICAL TWINS CAN SPLIT FROM A SINGLE EMBRYO UP TO DAY 14. SO DID THE ORIGINAL EMBRYO HAVE TWO SOULS? OR DOES THE SECOND SOUL ARRIVE LATE?
THE IDEA THAT LIFE BEGINS AT
CONCEPTION SOUNDS PROFOUND-UNTIL YOU RECOGNIZE IT AS A THEOLOGICAL
ASSUMPTION WITH NO BASIS IN BIOLOGY.

@MukeshR17884 @BishopJaxi Mukesh, Bishop wasn’t on the show. I was discussing a previous conversation I had with him on the show. If you listened you’d have known that.
English
I wasn't asked by @BishopJaxi to defend scripture, I was asked to defend a position I never held. And that's exactly how many theological debates get stuck. My new episode of The Bible Uncut helps to understand this and how to navigate it.

@Oluwadaniel_0 That there is one God is the first point of Trinitarianism. That the Father is God is the second. That the father is not the Son is yet another. You’re most of the way there

@hashjenni So there’s convicting evidence beyond someone mentioned his name in an email?
English
@iamchrisritchie @MikeWingerii If it was just a regular Christian, you make a great point. But when it’s a public figure who has great influence that causes harm, this needs to be public awareness.

Todd White just made a public repentance video.

@masonmennenga It’s saying there’s only one group of Christians. There’s not the rich black male group and the poor white woman group. There’s one body of Christ which contains rich black men and poor white women etc…
English
conservative christians: “there are only two genders”
paul in the bible: “there is neither male nor female”

@MikeWingerii New docuseries: “Mike Winger investigates the sickos who organize the Super Bowl Halftime Shows”

What kind of sickos organize the Super Bowl halftime shows?
And are they in the Epstein files?

@ActualCorn Why is displeasure and distaste often interpreted as fear?
English
It must be so stressful to be a Christian. You're always so afraid of everything. Doesn't that ever make you think you're being manipulated a little?

Imagine if Lady Gaga tried to perform one of her Satanic shows a few hundred years ago. It wouldn’t fly. She would be deemed a witch. Instead we live in an age where she’s worshipped by millions of lost people across the country. She’s propped up and idolized. The entertainment industry is mocking God.

@beyoncegarden “And there was evening and there was morning, the fourth day.”

this is the nastiest read he's EVER given anyone like even my jaw dropped LMFAOOO😭😭😭

@TorahRight @ToriatheistTori Ah, right. It’s a bit lost in translation but the punishment is the need to cover medical expenses and have to forfeit lost prophets due to their being unable to work.
English
@RLWatsonAuthor @ToriatheistTori I think it's the "gets up after a day or two" part that the atheist is objecting to.

@ZachWLambert Do you support protestors who threaten and intimidate families with young children?
English
It is time for Christians to unite in calling for an end to policies that harm our neighbors, in opposing ICE as they terrorize families and detain children, in prosecuting everyone who perpetrates these atrocities, and in reclaiming the name of Jesus from those who have hijacked it to justify cruelty.
History will remember where Christians stood in this moment. Our children will ask us what we did when fascism came to America wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross.
English
@LyingWrongAgain Exactly.
The limitation of this explanation is that an observation of this happening is already occurring in a universe that has pre-existing laws of order. To replicate, you’d need a new universe in true chaos
English
@RLWatsonAuthor Doesn’t work for gigantic inert solids like metal ore pinned to the ground by gravity and at low temperature
But for small molecules in thermal motion in liquid or gases and ice in space, you’ll get order and sometimes complexification and self assembly. Not life, but order
English
Religious apologist: science actually proves my faith
Me: how so?
RA: because science proves order cannot come from disorder
Me: oh?
English
@LyingWrongAgain @RLWatsonAuthor It's one thing to note that molecules can self organize into simple ordered patterns consistent with their orientation. It's quite another to suggest that they can self organize into the ordered AND complex protein chains necessary for life.
English
They forgot the most important one: a metaphor isn’t literal.
Certain Speaks@CertainSpeaks
Don't let your church deceive you today. Jesus ≠ YHWH (God) because: -God is not a priest. -God is not an image. -God is not a lamb. -God is not a sacrifice. -God is not an apostle. -God is not a son. -God is not a subservient. -God is not a word. -God is not Jesus.
English
@ATradCatholic @DFIRJames That’s not the argument. The preposition ‘until’ describes how long a certain condition lasts for. What’s the clause attached to ‘until’ in those references to Christ and Michal? What’s the clause attached to Mary and Joseph?
English
@DFIRJames If “until” always implied change, Christ stopped reigning and Michal had kids after death. Try again….
