Re: A New Smear Article: Interpreter Targets Givens and Hauglid

The dichotomy is silly--religious regimes vs atheist ones. Hitler saw himself as conducting God's work. Stalinist Russia was run on the same type of dogma that religion is. On the other hand, Peterson should feel lucky atheists often promote a secular humanist approach. he benefits from the progress...

Re: SeN: "Hope for immortality" is a Useful Salve for Childhood "rape and strangulation."

LaneWolfley • 11 hours ago Thank you for these interesting observations. Mormonism is a distinct variation of the Universalist tradition, I think. Think about it: even Hitler eventually gets a crown of glory, resurrection and immortality in a Kingdom of unimaginable splendor! Louis Midgley LaneWolf...

I don't understand Dan's position on the grounds that each life he summarily condemns was scripted before they were born. Could the play that is this life have unrolled if there was no knowledge of what would happen before God breathed life into a person? How should anyone be held accountable for a ...

Re: Folding like Darwin's House of Cards?

Tom, was there any indication as to the reason behind not being able to "fully access" the ECCO? What could possibly be the issue here?
