Ha! Great song from 1974, the last time I think I heard a sermon on ex-nihilo! 😄

I can't fathom why it matters whether the earth was created ex-nihilo or from pre-existing matter?

It's a biggie.  God's immanence, materialism, anti-Platonism, giving evidence against a dualistic view saying that matter is dreck, and true reality exists only in Platonic Forms. The human body, made of matter, is fallen.

And on it goes.  Adam was made from the earth- and so he cannot become like God who is a spirit.  Mucho mas

No replies as usual.

After reading what you wrote, I was going to reply about lex orandi, lex crendedi. But then I read the excerpt you attached and there it is!

Yeah but you are ignoring lex luthor.  Harumph.  He don like dat.

Actually, I should probably use this for my avatar.....

There is simply nothing to discuss about mathematics.   It is the way we see the world and is infallible by our own definitions.

Ok I disagree with you on THAT.

Your wish will be granted, but if that's true, there is no need for you to keep asking questions.

Careful.

You might even learn something.

So how does advanced math fit nature so well?
