Execute and denaturalize

I’m pretty sure no one changes their mind from a debate on here.
By the way, this ain’t true. I’ve witnessed it, for good and for ill. In addition to that, lowering the level of conversation to the level of the least common denominator rather than robust intellectual give and take is not only boring but also a poor reflection of Christian stewardship of doctrinal integrity.

Not really about me, or education, but about not being singular in the focus of your conversation.

Joseph Joubert: "Those who never retract their opinions love themselves more than they love truth."

The Stupidity of Stubbornness: Spurgeon often warned against being unteachable. He famously remarked, "He who knows nothing is confident in everything," suggesting that people who never change their minds are often driven by pride or a lack of understanding rather than conviction.

I have changed my mind about a number of things since being on this forum. Among the most radical things I have repented of is my 100% belief that the King James Bible was the only true translation and my understanding of Calvinism as one of the greatest dangers to the Church. I still use the KJV and even though I now understand Calvinism in a different light, I don’t agree with everything about it any more than I believe everything that someone who calls himself a Dispensationalist spews out of his mouth. We all on this forum grew up in different ways from childhood and it is hard to reject what has always been ingrained in our upbringing. That is no excuse for never being able to say ā€œI was wrongā€ about something.

I’ve only pointed out inconsistencies in your arguments.

Very good post. I agree with everything in it.
