    Human beings and time

    I can see that this was directed primarily at me, yet rejuvenating into another thread is rather disconcerting.

    Apocryphal Texts and Papal Infallibility

    NEVER! :D I try to stay wikipedia free on debate-threads, so I believe it was one of the Innocents' (perhaps 10th?) Papal Bull. I had to do an essay on it at one point in time, but memory escapes me. Just a minute....

    what is the origin of sin/evil?

    Oh? Really? Erm...uhuh....Why is that? I have explained this....God does NOT exercise foreknowledge, so the human's delusional concept of time is not impeding their free will. The entity compromising the actions must exercise it in a way that does so, whereas the one experiencing time, cannot be...

    what is the origin of sin/evil?

    I know that, that's why I deleted it...sorry....I was posting something else when I screwed up the whole thing with rearranging your quotes.

    Apocryphal Texts and Papal Infallibility

    Must I refer to the (please don't make me, please, cliche, cliche, cliche) INQUISITION!!! :run: Oh yeah, and cats are the product of the devil.... :bkcat:

    what is the origin of sin/evil?

    See, what did I tell you? :facepalm:

    what is the origin of sin/evil?

    I cannot in reality, tell if you are being deliberately recalcitrant to the idea, of not precognition, but observation. I tire of explaining this, and the semantical labyrinths do not prove anything, but your reluctance to reply in a nonSocratic fashion. God observes, in His omnipresence, he...

    Apocryphal Texts and Papal Infallibility

    Thankyou. For all future posters: I used the reference to the Apocrypha and Anagignoskomena as a parabolic element, look to the bottom of my post to see the essence.

    what is the origin of sin/evil?

    I admit: That was a mistake...you of the clever phrasings. :cover: Aside from that dreadful post, refer to my earlier one.

    Apocryphal Texts and Papal Infallibility

    No, the Anagignoskomena.

    what is the origin of sin/evil?

    I think he's waiting to catch one of us in faux pas (induced by exasperation of course), then whip out a denoument. :sarcastic

    Apocryphal Texts and Papal Infallibility

    Hence "hypothetical".

    Apocryphal Texts and Papal Infallibility

    I was mulling over random things in my deluded mind, when I picked up the titular Apocrypha, a collection of purportedly "Biblical" texts of dubious authenticity. These books were omitted from the Bible, due to being "heretical" or "disingenous". They were officialy omitted from the Bible, due...

    what is the origin of sin/evil?

    I wager a yes, aside from precognition, which I have already demonstrated is not an agent of the Godhead, infallible extrapolation, which is likewise, or corresponding to the linear view of time.

    what is the origin of sin/evil?

    First you must elaborate your question. Explain what you take to be impeding your choice.

    Immortality

    Fine, yet apparently God doesn't take such secular of views...:D If you wish to consider it from an atheistic perspective, where all life is a series of complex matter, reacting and enacting stimuli (one I sort of favor), that's fine....but from the creators perspective (hypothetical or...

    Immortality

    And there lies my point, about as ridiculous as the Fountain of Youth.:areyoucra

    Immortality

    Since the concept of Hell is reliant on souls, and machinery a product of man, whereas the soul, a product of God, you would got to heaven or hell, once your corporeal manifestation dies.:(

    what is the origin of sin/evil?

    I thought we eliminated the misguided concept of foreknowledge? Apparently not. :areyoucra God knows you as you enact option C.... He observes and knows you at this moment, a still fragment of time, but populated by one of God's many presences...he knows you now and what you are doing. God...

    Our gift to the Universe

    Sure...on a cosmic scale. "Back nebulae, tremble before the awesome wrath of MR. CLEAN.....":D
