Rahvin On The IPU And The Nature of Evidence
Author: Rahvin
Forum: Comparative Religions
Thread: Why "Immaterial Pink Unicorns" are not a logical argument
Message #:270
It's well written and well argued but in all honesty my reason for nominating this post is because it is a highly competent exposition of a position that I wholly agree with.
One of those posts where I think 'Why didn't I write that'.

Purpledawn on Sin and the Bible
Author: purpledawn
Forum: Faith and Belief
Thread: Are We Prisoners of Sin
Message #: Message 421
Purpledawn has done an excellent job in this thread, demonstrating that the Bible doesn't always say what some people want it to. The message linked to above is good, but the nomination is for a body of work throughout the thread.
Well done PD (and it's nice to see you back ).

Re: Purpledawn on Sin and the Bible
Thanks Granny, it has definitely been an experience.
Those two would try even the patience of Job.
I've been waiting for that 300 post cutoff!
Anyone?
