Would you like to see @worldviewdesign talking with @joerogan ?
Safe to say I'm on my mode again. But in a new way. More to come.
Alternative definition of Theism: Axiarchic Maximalism
Most concise definition of Theism I'm able to come up with: Theism: There exists an entity of an omnipotent kind whose actions are normatively constrained by axiological-theoretic reasons.
Just as there are thomists, a large mission of mine is to advance and amplify Swinburne’s system of natural theology — making Swinburnians. It would revolutionize the intellectual heritage of a serious Christian theism.
What an unfortunate number of people who hold to ECT.

Lost so much desire to be on this app. In other news, I have another video coming quite soon.

A romanticizing of exotic eastern religions and spiritual philosophies, with a disdain for Christianity, is the result of a shallow understanding of Christianity.
Theres a difference between a position being unintuitive (like panpsychism) vs. counterintuitive (like eliminative materialism). One simply lacks intuitive grounding, so must be justified in other ways. The other actually goes AGAINST what we intuit (like that we have intuitions)

I have not been on Twitter consistently for what feels like a good amount of time now. Is there anything important I've missed within our community?
"All will choose the Good when all have achieved a pure, non obfuscated intellectual sight. Knowledge of the Good cannot but produce an adhesion to the Good" ~ A Larger Hope p. 23
Ultimate Goodness Principle: For any S, S can be instantiated by God iff S permanently bears the axiological status of being good on the whole at some time t. We can derive the project of theodicy from this modest but clear principle.
HIGHLY enjoyed this diaologue. I always appreciate how Josh and Joe navigate these otherwise murky and stressful subjects with grace and clarity. A paradigm example of an exploratory conversation.

I believe that the first Christians (especially Jewish Christians) would have thought about it in a way closer to one. I personally affirm that, though I can make better sense out of 2. Memorialism is a no go.
In defining naturalism, there’s been a snag in defining what a “natural” object is. From my conversations with @Youthresist, I think this definition does well: X is a natural if and only if X is a non-intentional entity, or, X depends in some way on a non-intentional entity.

@SpeedWatkins It's a parody of this old tweet
@JoelMCurzon @SecularOutpost "We never see minds without material substrates." Idealist: We never see material substrates.
A year ago, I debated @WriterJohnBuck on the existence of God:
A Catholic and an Atheist Debate God and Religion: youtu.be/k5k48FeQqE4
Classical decision theory: expected utility is a well-defined mathematical concept. The claim that we ought to act in a way that maximizes it is a controversial philosophical principle. E.g., Buchak (google.com/books/edition/…) argues that risk aversion need not be irrational.
Bayesianism: Bayes' Theorem is an indisputable mathematical fact about coherent probability distributions. The claim that 'credences' exist & should be modeled as probabilities & updated using Bayes' Theorem is a controversial philosophical principle.
@caseyofm The existence of a Jewish man called Jesus who was crucified by the Roman Empire and whose ideas spread across the world, is really not in doubt by serious historians. As far as comparable figures go, the evidence for Jesus is about as good as it gets. historyforatheists.com/2017/05/did-je…
"The universe, on this view, may be likened to an enormous reverberating chamber, in which any whisper, however faint, in any part, however remote, echoes and re-echoes throughout the whole." - C.E.M. Joad
“[E]ach generation must justify the Christian system by using the best secular knowledge of its own day; and that is why true disciples of St. Thomas cannot rely on the Summa—they have to carry out Thomas’s program, using the knowledge of their own day” — Richard Swinburne
Just as there are thomists, a large mission of mine is to advance and amplify Swinburne’s system of natural theology — making Swinburnians. It would revolutionize the intellectual heritage of a serious Christian theism.
@jswillims21 @InvokingTheism @ChristianIdeal2 (A) Swinburne doesn’t do that. (B) Swinburne doesn’t do that, either, and justification and truth are conceptually distinct; a belief is justified by being justified, not by being true.

@InvokingTheism Plenty of atheists use it in a dumb way, but that’s true of pretty much everything. My own sense is that like half of the atheist community is just a group of bizarro Ray Comforts
