-Removed-no the issue is whether the veracity of a claim needs to be explicitly stated in scripture,i have provided an example that it need not be, you are slobbering, so when will you address the issue and tell us id an idea or a principle needs to be explicitly stated in scripture for it to have vale, if you refuse or cannot then we can dismiss your entire argument as being nothing more than slobbery drool, cant we.
-Removed-no its not, tell us if something needs to be explicitly stated in scripture or not for it to have a certain veracity, your failure to address these questions being put to you is what is deflective and dishonest, all you can do is focus on personalities well you are not getting away with it this time, so you will tell us whether something needs to be explicitly stated in scripture or not and whether this has any bearing on the veracity of its claim.
Originally posted by robbie carrobieI'm not talking about "cigarettes". So you concede that you are not making a "truth claim" about the fate of "The Tree of Life"?
Its an inference from scripture and a plausibility. so you were telling us how, given the example that I cited of cigarettes why their not being explicitly mentioned in scripture has any bearing on the veracity of the claim that their use is forbidden in scripture the Christian being counselled to refrain from anything which defiles the spirit or flesh.
-Removed-the entire crux of your strawman argument is whether something needs to be explicitly stated in scripture Elmer, this has been proven not to be the case, i provided an example of that. seeing that you cannot refute it and keep slobbering and drooling about your obsession with the Gman it appears that you will not or cannot tell us whether something needs to be explicitly stated and we can simply dismiss your claims as unfounded, unsubstantiated and having no reality other than the hot air you invest in them. Thankyou, but we knew that already. You keep focusing on personalities and we shall keep addressing the issues.

-Removed-so you were telling us whether something needs to be explicitly stated in scripture for it to have any veracity to its claim, oh no you weren't because it doesn't need to be, does it, that you cannot bring yourself to say it is typical. we can now dismiss any of your claims on this basis as ludicrous until such times as you do address the issue. all you have is your empty opinions, devoid of substance and devoid of meaning. It has been my pleasure in pointing that out today, i could not have done it without you.
