Re: The canon of the Bible

Re: The canon of the Bible

knight4yshua,

Again, thank you. I will not critique your ‘philosophy’ because I cannot provide as informed and coherent an argument as you have offered.

Let me only mention that in philosophy Heidegger’s contribution relies on his ability to use the concept of Being itself without a claim to identification of Being itself as an absolute. Instead, he is closer to the existentialist by offering "Being being beings" as a provisional summary. Later, he bemoaned the inadequacy of that but not as a reason to return to the Aristotelianism he spent 14 years studying before he wrote "Sein und Zeit."

Elsewhere on this site I exchanged a few comments about process theology’s concept of a limited God. Clearly that is not your understanding of Yahweh.

As I’m sure you’re aware, the first objection to your total faith in an absolute divinity is that in view of the existence of evil, such faith might be accounted "blind." I expect that is not an issue for you, and I think I can see the smile on your lips as you anticipate a reply.
