It didn't say that it did, but it shows Jesus doesn't demand one to be repentant, but rather to achieve metanoia, a transformed mindset vs a bad consc...

Suffering isn't an absence of joy or sadness...repentance is different from suffering also, attempting to equate the two as the same, well, of course ...

One doesn't need to repent in order to change ones ways... The repentant criminal is none other than Nietzsche's "Pale Criminal" who hangs his head in...

Then I highly suggest you begin to understand the secrets of Nietzsche's invention of the Dionysian Dithyrambs... as Metaphysical Poetry is what Nietz...

The Gospels is longer than a page. And what do you got you panties in a twist for? I literally learned something here from you. Metanoia vs Repentance...

Doesn't make a difference what people think, unless they think they know better than Jesus, which goes to show they're fluffing their own ego at that ...

Here's the point: metanoia, is the Greek word where as the Latin translation is purposefully altered to mean something vastly different: Metanoia (???...

repentance is a feeling of much sorrow and torment. Which has nothing to do with the Greek word Metanoia. Which the Romans poorly translated into re-p...

Jesus doesn't demand repentance for sin though. Why keep bringing up Judaism as if it matter anything to Jesus? We're speaking of Christianity, and th...
April 14, 2025 at 15:18
Why does it have to be discussed as if there's a universal truth behind the will to ignorance? I dismiss people when I know they're an absolute waste ...
April 14, 2025 at 13:31
Anything one needs is in the Bible itself. Specifically the Gospels. If it doesn't align with that what good is it? 1 And seeing the multitudes, he we...
April 14, 2025 at 00:29
Certainly not the Judaic traditions of Sin, Repentance and Atonement. Sin puts distance between man and God under the laws of Judaism, where as Jesus ...
April 13, 2025 at 11:35
It’s pretty simple: The Bible breaks down into sections. The only section I'm concerned with are the four Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, wh...

Okay, fair, and a good catch, but my biggest problem with that is repentance Etymology doesn't come from Greek, but from Latin. Re (very much) poeniti...
April 11, 2025 at 02:45
Fair enough. Was mostly playing devil's advocate anyhow to give a little food for thought.
April 11, 2025 at 01:25
It's actually penance... not repentance. Quite a difference. We can see in 30 Jesus is more just than the Pharisees and Scribes as the Beatitude dicta...
April 11, 2025 at 00:39
No, Judaism does. Nowhere in the Gospels does Jesus require any of that. Nor can you produce a pasaage that shows it. Everything else in the bible oth...
April 10, 2025 at 23:34
I think you're not very good at connecting dots then. There is no tradition of repentance and atonement with Jesus Christ, it, like sin is abolished b...
April 10, 2025 at 23:27
I don't think "intelligent" design is even a correct saying to even get at a notion of God creating something (at least in so far as the etymology of ...

The Zionist businessmen didn't give a hoot about that though they just wanted a cash cow. I take my definition from the philosophers, not the business...
April 10, 2025 at 02:18
Well, you support and advocate for Israel, thus by proxy, you do. You're hopelessly one sided. Where as I have actually looked into Zionist philosophe...
April 10, 2025 at 00:44
I mean, who cares about the anything outside of the Bible in this regard? Jesus states as reported in the Gospels of Matthew: that even those who don'...

You're pretty stupid, but that's okay, every society needs your kind. Israel is Palestine.

Violence is a necessity of life. And yeah, they got a right to defend their land as they see fit, especially with dumbasses like you asserting foreign...

Nah, moral systems are good for the people who are terrible at governing themselves. But they're not really needed for someone who can. I enjoy them b...
April 09, 2025 at 13:58
No, you simply don't think hard enough beyond your own prejudice. To the point you think it's okay for foreign Jews to take land that they had no righ...

For sure. Kids are going to be kids, and overall those that simply don't sit down and stfu get labeled as trouble makers. Asking too many questions, a...

Nice catch, wasn't sure wtf to make of it. More or less the guy is biased and attempting to bend the science to his perspective.

What I find interesting is that it supports a quantum theory of consciousness.

One of the best things about children is that you get to reexperience the magic of the world through their eyes.

For sure, I mostly mean it's hard for me to tell because it's not my field of expertise. Would need to know more about the science of bodyoids and bod...
March 30, 2025 at 01:55
Perhaps, though I'd like to see where this leads in regards to those who are comatose? It seems like, to me, a bodyoid would perhaps be similar to a b...
