I have been on topic the entire time. Different people advocate and implement different methods of change (governing). One person may think: It is heroic and good to make the world better by fighting and eliminating those who do evil. Another may think: God tells me what is good and evil, I am a...

Based on your words, I don't think you could help either. Who is LePierrre? Are the ideas of Lanza or LePierrre considered equally valid as yours? I would rather be an idealist than a hypocrite.

You don't think you could help Lanza or LePierre by doing anything other than evil to them? What is your definition of a creep? So the object is hatred and war against people that you (or someone) deems to be a creep, and you justify this behavior believing that it is somehow protecting the less...

So then perceive, discern, and tell us, what spirit do you think is responsible for Hurricane Sandy? What spirit do you think is responsible for Sandy Hook? You see a correlation, claim that a spirit is behind it, shake your head and sigh, and claim to perceive and discern. You say that it is...

What shall we do when the boys suit up to go be understanding and peaceful with a rifle in Laos, or everywhere else? A bit of I-said-she-said discussion is precisely what needs to occur, or the bullets and body bags do the talking. You say 'Pax', but the ruling mafia you believe in has been at...

No, definitely not. I was saying that a person is a spirit, which has authority. I was responding to Skinker's line, "This means the entire Bible has no spiritual authority whatsoever..." A book is not a spirit. People are spirits having authority, which books do not have.

Whereas I recommend the ~do~ in the relationship with ~m-any~ others, and from it life and discernment may be much different. A person has some choice of what to discern over, and whether to discern for themselves or within the relationship with others. Reading a recipe and discerning over it is...

As you refer to law in a way that I don't believe Jesus Christ ever did, I guess you are off the topic. I imagine there could be someone in your town, that loves to say what you love to hear, on your topic. I know quite a few people that are into that, and I hope you find what you are looking...

I am willing to respond to a post on the thread where someone placed it, and I am willing to not respond. Perhaps you should ask the Ecumenist for his discernment, on whether or not he wants a word exchange to continue on his thread. :)

Where allegedly Christ said, "You may not suppose that I came to put peace on the earth; I did not come to put peace, but a sword; for I came to set a man at variance against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law, and the enemies of a man...

You believe so? What is the speed of light through water? glass? air? Go measure it. I tell you False: The speed of light is variant depending on the medium. From my viewpoint, your argument is with yourself, whether it is Truth, truth, Hard truth, hardly truth, fuzzy truth, objectively true...

So when you tell people, "You have not proven it", or, "You may believe that, you can post that. Does not make it true, sorry. Try using equations or scientific method.", or, "In empirical terms both posts are empty (except for subjective opinions).", then should I regard the True or Truth...

The proof of a good recipe is not received by merely reading the recipe.

Measurement and relationship are required to establish truth or symmetry with the world. Your definition of 'hard truth' was 'a provable relationship between a thought or proposition and reality'. Rewinding the tape: ... which I am saying is false, by the way. In your example: As you say no...

You accuse me of conjecture. I'd say someone who says 'we', projecting themselves upon everyone, is guilty of that. You believe so? I can be willing to not talk with a liar, if they wish.

Precisely. Your examples of hard truth look like galloping gertie to me. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. A man is not necessarily defined by his genes. The horse may call itself something different. Your application of the symbols may have no relation to the reality. Surely you...

Try having a relationship with someone who lies to you 50% of the time, and then report on how civil the discourse is. :)

False. Your "Hard truth" may be true, and may be false. Deductive logic is contingent on the underlying presumptions, often hidden. You won't really know without measurement. I am an educated and accomplished engineer. I tell you: Truth is a symmetry, both symmetric and anti-symmetric (True...

I said nothing of the sort.

Sounds a bit like the Life of Pi: "And so it goes with Man."
