Yet that's the main synthesis, isn't it? The idea of the value of a negative dialectic? That you felt some need for such a term might be an indication...
Atheism is a very different thing to analytic method. It is surprising to me that this needs mention. There are whole worlds between theism and atheis...
Well, seems to me that if you are unsure that she believes what you suggested, we can't proceed. If we are going to get somewhere we may need to focus...
Why introduce "god's eye view"? If you and I agree that Superman can fly, why should we concern ourselves with god's opinion on the topic? Seems out o...
Not sure here. "Superman is Clark Kent" is a straight forward identity - one may be substituted for the other. Superman can fly, hence Kent can fly. "...
All fair, except that in this discussion we might want to keep the wound open rather than heal it - it might help us (me?) to see the value in what Ad...
Perhaps; perhaps. seems to think the wounds worth keeping open. I wonder if that's why he commits to these fora. I'll again make explicit that I agree...
Dogs are servile and neurotic. I'm more a cat person. Cats live in our houses despite not having been domesticated - their only concession being to ma...
Pretty much. The reasoning used in the simple theology hereabouts is low-hanging fruit for an analytic approach. It's the little word puzzles that are...
We had Pho for dinner - chicken with extra chicken... https://just-eat-prod-sg-res.cloudinary.com/image/upload/c_fill,q_auto,ar_4:3,c_thumb,h_450,w_60...
From the recipes I can see on line, yes, but also beef, mutton and chicken. The image provided looks to be more rice, with milk, and quite different t...
I'm nursing a head cold, so supping lemon tea. Juice of a whole lemon, and a spoon of Beachworth Buckwheat honey. Extraordinary stuff, the honey, almo...
No, I didn't. The only connection is the one you and Tim make. I'm just asking for a coherent account of the Trinity. So we are back to where you inte...
And so the use of analogically argument in order to understand God is fundamentally flawed? Ok. So deductive logic doesn't work because of the failure...
Yeah, the Creed doesn't help much unless you also take on board the whole Thomistic metaphysics of essence and personhood and so on. But ask what an e...
For those with an interest in background stuff, the diagram, which Leon says is most certainly not a representation the Trinity, can be found in the W...
The bit where you attack me instead of addressing the issue. Again. :roll: For Tim, the answer seemed to be both that we had to understand the account...
Again, I do not want to attack Catholic Dogma. I want a coherent account of the Trinity. But that you see my doing so as an attack speaks loudly to th...
Thanks for that. Presumably, I can now proceed to present any number of accounts of the Trinity, and for each, you will say "that's not it, Dumbass!" ...
, the diagram shows clearly the denial of transitivity. It's that denial, not the diagram, that is at issue. Again, that you see this as an attack is ...
Now you quote yourself! Not your most noble habit. If pointing to the consequences of your doctrine is, for you, an attack, that's about you, not me. ...
