Neurotheology: This Is Your Brain On Religion
RonD1120 replied to RonD1120's topic in Speakers Corner
Eh...more quasi-science. I'm sure those brain scan images are similar to an atheist's while meditating on their own grandeur. This theology won't tell us anything about God. More importantly, for me, is that it won't tell us anything regarding the concept of sin. However, it is a contemporary effort in the scientific field.

I am amused and confused by the posters to SC for whom ultimate truth is so easy for them to grasp and pontificate ad absurdum. And yet, they are not employed within our various intelligence agencies, do not direct large benevolent civil/social agencies/organizations and are so paranoid that they must remain incognito.

Ron, I know of the Master ,Jesus the Christ. I have studied the teachings of the Master, Jesus the Christ. Ron, you are not "Christian". No student of the Master would refer to himself in that manner for reasons obvious to true students of His teachings. Peace and understanding to you, DJ Do you know the three requirements for being a Christian? Ron, obviously you don't. Here is something you have yet to understand; Christ isn't a person , Christ is a title. To be a follower of a title makes no sense. Would you like for me to recite some mandates of the early Roman church? Far be it of me. Why don't you tell us all? I mean, since you know the mind of God .., tell us his requirements!!! Peace and understanding to you, DJ 1. You must believe that Jesus Christ is God incarnate. 2. You must believe that He died on the cross as propitiation for your sins. 3. You must believe that He was resurrected from the dead and is alive today. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant.

I am of the Faith that torture is always wrong. I am of the Faith that believes that Love is always right. I am of the Faith that believes that Man is not to judge. I am of the Faith of your Father. Of what Faith be you,Ron Schott? Peace and Understanding be unto you, DJ Yeah, right. That is just what I thought. Me, I am a plain ol' vanilla Christian.

Interesting. Your faith is based on an *inconnu* and on *John Wayne*. LMAO. Since you are uneducated about the man and his philosophy. "Marion Mitchell Morrison (born Marion Robert Morrison; May 26, 1907 – June 11, 1979), better known by his stage name John Wayne, was an American film actor, director and producer. He epitomized rugged masculinity and became an enduring American icon. He is famous for his distinctive voice, walk and height. He was also known for his conservative political views and his support, beginning in the 1950s, for anti-communist positions." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Wayne Folks in my age bracket considered him an American hero.

First, I don't sell them. The CSA emblem is given to those who wish to be in the fellowship of Christian Skydivers. Second, membership in the CSA carries no requirements for any specific behavior. I ask that members pray, study the Word and, seek guidance from the Holy Spirit. To what church or faith do you belong? Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

Keep reading ,Ron, and tell us when you come to the belief that torture was /is justified. Peace and understanding unto you, So mote it be. DJ I am still waiting to find a good example of when it was used. I know he already stated that waterboarding was legal. What else needs to be said? He also stated that he was not in agreement with the Abu Ghraib incident. I do not consider making prisoners wear women's panties on their heads, form naked pyramids or, be threatened by barking dogs torture. But, hey, that's just me.

Merry Christmas to you as well. I'll heading to the firing range later this week to gain additional understanding for my personal peace keeping. I'll be taking some instruction from a former U.S.Marine and Christian brother. His personal motto is, "America, I'll fight ya' for it." Geeze, I remember when parachutists were hardcore.

That little ole sayin did not work out so well for yall in the last administration... How many times did yall get fooled after voting for them ??????? Truthfully, I was never fooled. It is what it is. We have to make it work. I am reading Decision Points so I can understand more of what President George W. Bush was dealing with during his eight years. I was never sorry that I supported him, then or now. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

Jesus understood from the beginning that He was to be sacrificed. His issues were much different than mine. My job is to survive. If I am to be martyred so be it. Understand, I will not go easy. Also, check your Scriptures and you will find instances were Jesus profiled others and left the scene when He saw unfavorability or hostility. "Life is tough.

You openly proselytize, and then spout off racist crap like that. Wow, you're a real good christian aren't you? Yes, yes I am. And, well armed as well. See Ephesians 6:10-18. Safety is the issue.

I think you are correct in your thinking. However, after many years working in support to the criminal justice system I have concluded, it enhances my personal safety to view the individual as a perpetrator rather than innocent until proven guilty. I react the same way when I see a mid-eastern male or a female with a rag over her head. Maybe they are not sympathetic terrorists but, I will treat them that way until I learn differently. Wariness just comes naturally as part of the job. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

How about this technology? AR.Drone http://pulse2.com/2010/01/07/parrot-launching-an-iphoneipod-touch-remote-control-helicopter-at-ces/ My son-in-law has a similar model with HDTV, controlled by an app on his Ipad. He can fly it into your house, check your home environment and, post it straight to Facebook in a matter of seconds. No reason why the authorities couldn't do the same. And, a lot cheaper than the above mentioned drone. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

GB is a personal friend of Marcus Luttrell, former NAVY SEAL, TEAM 10. I don't know for certain but, I suspect that is where he got the lapel pin. He did a NAVY SEAL update as recently as 7 Dec 10.

Matthew 13:17 For truly, I say to you, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it. 2 Timothy 3: 16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.

...but the relevance is priceless. I realize the first part is not your words and, I agree with your comment. I have come to believe that when we all stand before Jesus Christ in all His glory truth will be undeniable. He won't read off our list of rights and wrongs. He will not have to. We will see every opportunity we were presented with the Word of God, received the unction from the Holy Spirit to accept Him and we will know that we willfully rejected Him. Jesus will not not condemn us to eternal death. We will turn and walk into the abyss of hopelessness because we will know that is all we deserve. Those who have accepted Jesus Christ by faith will realize the full impact of His truth. We will walk into eternal life because we fought the good fight of faith. Yes, Scripture reference to an atheist falls on deaf ears. However, it will be evidence at the final judgment. Therefore, it is indeed relevant. God is not fair; He is just.
