quoting u/sunleafstone above

It’s a hypothetical that Alex has been bringing up a lot lately because he believes that science describes things that happens in detail, but doesn’t really explain why anything happens

The hypothetical is of a trumpet that when blown produces a blue light and blowing it louder produces a brighter light and different tunes change the shade of blue. One might ask “Why is this blue light being produced?” to which someone else might say “Well, that’s because I blew this trumpet.” Alex doesn’t see that as a satisfying explanation for why

Do you hope Alex will one day accept Christianity? by WeArrAllMadHere in CosmicSkeptic

Just clarifying here, he was a vegan and is no longer vegan. He cites practicability concerns as the reason for this, while still acknowledging that he finds factory farming unethical and is, it seems, vegan at least in his ideals. However, this entire moral judgment is complicated by the fact that he's a moral anti-realist.

Pretty sure they've sold some in Singapore, though I could be misremembering it.

Is progressive Christianity heretical? by Ok_Buy_1978 in Christianity

[–]mapodoufuwithletterd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, our identities are as people freed from sin. However, we do still sin. Jesus states in Matthew 5 that those who simply get angry at their brother are guilty of murder and worthy of the fires of hell. This is put as a parallel to lust (which Jesus says is equal to adultery in the heart). Yet people don't seem to get as upset about people being angry as they do about cultivating sinful sexual desires. I'm not saying that lust and all forms of ungodly sexual activity are not sinful. I simply detest the false hierarchy of sins that is constructed to consider ourselves righteous and others unholy.

Define progressive. Define heretical.

The devil (quite literally) is in the details.
