Re: Omni [actually] = all

Jon ststes:

We should not assume God can make us know him unless there is some reason to back it.

Catholic Scientist states:

The reason to back it is his omnipotence.

Jon states:

Claiming omnipotence and then scurrying off doesn't back your argument.

Catholic Scientist states: How have I scurried off? I'm right here. Or do you mean in the way you've avoided supporting your premise?

Basically, omnipotence is my argument. And really, there is no way to argue against it.

Omnipotence is a belief not a fact.

There is no better love between 2 people than mutual respect for each other

Re: Omni [actually] = all

Yes, and for the sake of argument, it is assumed to be fact as a premise.

Assumed by who? not jon or me.
