So why do you post new texts in these threads for Wolfgang's and my consideration when you believe we "cannot grasp the passages already cited"?

I've long believed that people who have no effective reply to another's argument have three basic choices: 1) Acknowledge they have no effective reply; 2) Say nothing at all; 3) Change the subject or otherwise distract from their lack …

1) But apparently you think it IS worth your/someone's time to declare judgments as to whose opinions are and are not worthy of anyone's time.... Well that's something, anyway.
2) Ultimately, it's not my views that you and Dave…

You don't think it's worth your time to "(look) at (my) ideas," but you offer three texts in this exchange, presumably because you think it would be worth my/our time to look at YOUR ideas. Amazing.
In my view, Dave, the vitali…

In response to my request that you engage directly and on-point with the ten verses/passages I cited in an earlier post, you re-offer John 6.63 and provide two additional texts. What you don't do, Dave, is engage directly and on-point …

UPDATE: In a previous post, I mentioned that DoD reps had told reporters they will "implement the president's decision as soon as they can figure out what he was talking about." We now have in Peace In Korea Comment by Bill_Coley June 2018

You offer a single verse, Dave, to which I respond, how does the Son of Man's ascension to "where he was before" prove that when he was "where he was before," he was anyone other than the Son of Man? How does his going "where he was be…

In a previous post in this thread, reformed, I cited ten verses/passages from John's Gospel that make a clear distinction between Jesus and God. Further, I raised important questions as to why Jesus would again and again and again give…

Here's a link to a five minute interview the president conducted with Voice of America …

An interesting point!
According to every observing/participating international agency AND every Trump administration official in a position to know, Iran was in full compliance with the deal it signed. Yet Trump called that
(Quote)Oh, there is at least one significant difference between now and 2005: In 2005, we didn't agree to suspend military exercises with South Korea.
But then again, Kim Jong Un is SUCH a trustworthy partner, so, what could possibly …
(Quote)I acknowledge that the Romans 1 text is a challenge to us who understand homosexuality not to be a sin. The passage was the focus of one of two Bible studies I convened in the previous edition of CD. Lots of thoughtful stuff came out o…
(Quote)The similarities between your theology and manner of expressing it and David's are striking and difficult to ignore, reformed. For example, when I saw your use of the dismissive interjection "oh brother" I remembered David's frequent u…
(Quote)A man says to his brother, "I'm going to visit your father and my father." By the the logic of your "am I not my own president?" example, the man would be his own father. That makes no sense. Just as it makes no sense to suggest that J…
(Quote)I encourage you to review the posts of a CD participant whose forum ID is @dct112685. He's not currently active in CD, but I think you'll find c…
(Quote)(Quote)The icr.org article that you cite includes exactly one sentence in its nearly 2,300 words that mentions evolution. While you will likely contend that it "debunks" evolution without referencing evolution, the icr.org ar…
(Quote)If people be heterosexual and Christian - and they can - then yes, without doubt people can be homosexual and Christian.
(Quote)Well, that's the thing, reformed. Before I posted my request to you, I searched your posts for any links about evolution you might have provided in the past, and found none. So when I asked you to provide them, I knew you wouldn't be a…
(Quote)I didn't (and don't) know what you meant by those words, so I asked you to explain them. How is it possibly a "Red Herring question" when I ask nothing more than for you to explain YOUR OWN WORDS?
[How rich it is that…
(Quote)And another Trumpster Dumspter comment from you, Gao Lu, one whose intent is to discredit or diminish a media source - in this case, Mother Jones - sadly, without a shred of evidence.
Donald Trump cries "fake news!" (without ev…
(Quote)I don't know what "random evangelical(s)" are. From his Wikipedia profile, I think it's fair to say Schenck certainly has a history of activism in politically partisan evangelical movements, something that is not true of all or even mo…
(Quote)I asked you to explain what you meant when you claimed that biology and sex don't "lend themselves for anything homosexual." Your assertions about my level of conceit don't help me understand what you meant, so I ask my question again.…
(Quote)I didn't ask for links to articles, reformed. Because in a previous post you claimed to have "already given" such links, I asked for links to your CD posts in which you originally provided those links. Hence, I renew m…
(Quote)I'm not aware of any links you have provided to demonstrate that evolution has been "debunked." Please provide me a link to your CD post(s) in which you provided those links.
(Quote)It IS the "right question," reformed, because it's the question I asked. You might not like it or want to address it - which, in fact, you didn't - but it IS the right question.
I don't know what it means for biology and sex to…
(Quote)I accept that you've never heard of Rob Schenck. I don't accept that your lack of awareness of him changes the value of his story. A helpful review of his journey can be found in The "marriage" of evangelicalism and Donald Trump Comment by Bill_Coley June 2018
(Quote)Reformed, I remain FAR more unconvinced than you of the usefulness of the word "nonsense" (or "stupid" or "crazy") in constructive discussions of issues.
The objective scientific truth is that the theory of evolution has not be…
(Quote)You're of course welcome to your views about marriage and to your objections to Supreme Court rulings. My point about the adjective "stupid" was simply that as a rule, it makes no constructive contribution to discussions, in my view, e…
(Quote)That said, do you have any comments about the interview to which I provided a link, the interview that was in fact the reason for my OP in this thread?
