@Blueroad I recommend caution.

lol SATANISM

Well the flamboyant chads are compensating for 1 of 2 things, or both, being a homo or being scared to carry a gun

Mak is religious.

*very* religious

@Maksim how do you reliably interpret gods word

<#587029563863990282> @Joywolf

>being scared to carry a gun

you haven't ever been to Ukraine eh?

theres already a chat there

@Joywolf Excellent point. Carry on.

@Joywolf Let me pull up a verse give me a second

Verses won’t help you justify ruling out alternative interpretations

@Blueroad Seems you’ve already made up your mind on that.

we've debated it a bunch

Well it’s just be question begging to appeal to verses

lol

Because what’s in question is how you rule out alternative interpretations of gods utterances

Appealing to gods utterances or interpretations thereof doesn’t answer the question of how you justify taking interpretation A rather than B

Apparently Mak thinks he has a verse that does it. Might as well hear him out right?

No, for the reason I just explained

@Blueroad I mean I stated it clear to him that I do not have quarrel with Ukrainians, just the government and current President.

He seems fine with it.

@Blueroad If one of gods utterances is reasonable consistent and clear between sources, and it gives some sort of Rosetta Stone to the meaning of the Bible, it’s feasible.

You can’t justify a particular interpretation of a scripture by appealing to the scripture

@Maksim assuming god exists in the abrahamic (im assuming youre christian), christian way, what about that means any of us should server/obey/worship him

Consistency on the view of multiple interpreters doesn’t actually justify an interpretive principle by which you could rule out alternative interpretations of gods utterances

1 Corinthians 10:15

Yeah all I infer from that is you can’t rule out alternative interpretations of gods utterances

@Blueroad Apparently he doesn’t need to.

Yeah so I’d be just as justified in claiming that god wants me to murder as many people as possible rather than what he thinks god wants me to do

I mean, Jericho.

@Blueroad Would anyone sensible do that, in your personal opinion.

I don’t see why not

Empathy being the main prohibitive feature

You could be sensible and lack empathy

Or maybe fear is the main one

That’s up for debate

But I stand by my@point

So you would consider a person in ownership of their senses going on a murder spree to be a completely reasonable and likely event? @Blueroad

I’m familiar with characters throughout history that were acting sensibly (at least as far as anyone outside of their mind could tell) and were simultaneously killing many many people
