olger Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 This article also clutches relativism to its bosom. An example of relativism "Well THAT may be true for you..." As if truth is an internal construct. OG Quote "Please don't feed the drama queens.." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Gregory Matthews Posted November 17, 2013 Moderators Share Posted November 17, 2013 Some truth is relative and some truth is eternal. This is the old issue of principles and judgments: Principles may be said to be binding on all at all times. The application of those principles may depend upon time and circumstances. The article cited by Tom was not about whether or not women should be ordained. It was about how we should treat those who disagree with us on that point. As such, I do not believe that the article taught relativism. Quote Gregory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members phkrause Posted November 17, 2013 Members Share Posted November 17, 2013 Quote phkrause By the decree enforcing the institution of the papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness. When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near. {5T 451.1} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Tom Wetmore Posted November 17, 2013 Author Administrators Share Posted November 17, 2013 ...supporting the point of the article with your criticism, Ger. Maybe a reread might help.

olger Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Read all three pages, baby! Yep. It is ultimately a relativistic treatment of the issue, sprinkled with seatbelt similies and maudlin sentimentality. I will give her this. She is true to culture. rejoice always, g Quote "Please don't feed the drama queens.." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Tom Wetmore Posted November 25, 2013 Author Administrators Share Posted November 25, 2013 Yet such critique still seems to have missed the point and appears to evidence a lack of respect for the point of view as expressed by a woman… Take another look. http://www.christianitytoday.com/women/2...source=facebook Quote "Absurdity reigns and confusion makes it look good."
