Re: From the North Pole to the South Pole, Islam needs to be wiped from the face of the Earth.
Those that call for Sharia law or guilty of other criminal acts in those European countries which allowed them in, welcomed and supported them, that problem is solved very easily. Without further ado, whether by the hundreds or thousands, you get them off your soil back to where they came from, incl...

Re: Christian Civilization -- The Central Issue
This speech has relevance to the topic of this thread — if it is the protection and restoration of Europe. Unfortunately the Muslim fox is already in the chicken coop. ...and gradually turning into a rabid wolf. According to the stats she quoted, it's already too late. Europe's human rights policy ...

Re: Christian Civilization -- The Central Issue
In the confrontation with your thought, which is I think an entrenched ideology, I am clear that I have an object. I don't have an entrenched ideology except that which is determined on a scale of probabilities…subject to change, of course. If I have anything corresponding to an entrenched ideology...

Re: Christian Civilization -- The Central Issue
But when we come to the Christian revelation — the Hebrew revelation — and if we start from Hosea (I think one of the older Bible books) God takes a very different form. Is understood very differently. And then the vision or revelation is focused even more. Extraordinarily so in my opinion. It woul...

Re: Christian Civilization -- The Central Issue
Exactly in that sense I refer to the meta-natural. It is no part of the natural systems of the Earth, and only enters the world through and with man. Yes! But who, pray, isn't aware of this trite little fact? Nature created us through a long period of evolution and once we became aware and scared e...

Not in the least. It only proves that nature doesn't have a plan.Alexis Jacobi wrote: ↑Sun May 05, 2024 11:03 pm Nature has the plan that you and everyone observes. We call that •nature• and •the natural world•. Man’s impositions — those of Christianity more specifically — are anti-natural. They contradict natural predicates.

Re: Christian Civilization -- The Central Issue
Causality. Substance monism. These a priori facts exist regardless of the physical state of a universe, which is always changing, and so could be called absolute, metaphysical truths, facts about the nature of the physical world and how it operates. Those are not metaphysical facts. That's because ...

Re: Christian Civilization -- The Central Issue
The current and interminable Trump saga, I believe, will go down in American history as one of its greatest farces, especially where any interpretation of justice is concerned.

https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/will-the-universe-ever-stop-expanding1/ From your link, which by the way provides absolutely nothing that could remotely be used as actual prove of an expanding Universe, what is first noticed is that the 'presumption' that the Universe is expanding is bel...

...perfectly understandable, ebonically or not. For us , perhaps. But I think there might be subtleties that could well be brought out through a translation, when it often happens that things are lost in translation. Not in the case of a trite four-liner so clearly expressed. It stands precisely as...

It is possible, though also improbable, that some here know of Matthew Arnold’s poem Dover Beach : The sea of faith Was once, too, at the full; But now we only hear Its melancholy, long, withdrawing roar … Promethean, would you kindly translate this stanza into Ebonics? ...perfectly understandable,...

Re: Christian Civilization -- The Central Issue
Beethoven can hardly be considered a musician. Some of his *music* sounds to me like a garbage truck rumbling over a pot-holed back alley -- and then those caterwauling felines! And all of it ALL OF IT is just noise. I am surprised people don't see through it. All those sentiments, feelings indeed ...
