    Some people argue that Jesus of Nazareth was "God incarnate"... wasn't Jesus of Nazareth a "person"? If he was a person, then he could likewise be included in a response to "who"

    No, it was a serious question based on other comments i have seen in other threads. So I figured I would just come right out and ask it. Not a troll thread at all.

    Why didn't he do this 2 years ago when the republicans controlled both houses?

    Never happen; good luck pulling the millennial's away from their keyboards.

    He is not alive in the flesh
    He never wrote anything, AFAIK. So any words attributed him are 2nd hand at best.
    People can use those words written as a guide, but at the end of the day, the individual still has to decide.

    Most Presidents allowed Border Patrol to turn back border crossers without arrest and detention.

    Socrates never wrote anything either..AFAIK.. So any words attributed him are 2nd hand at best. People can use those words attributed to Socrates as a guide, but at the end of the day, the individual still has to decide whether or not those words are logical.

    I find it interesting that you are attributing to the individual the right and ability to exercise his/her own free will to make decisions.

    Yes, but not violent or lethal force.

    There's no caveat, when I say that, about a god knowing what each and every individual will do from before birth to the exact time of said death.

    OK... but I believe that to be a slight exageration ... ALL is inclusive of everyone of them... and the terms 'bullies' and 'cowards' is a bit ambiguous.

    If you're referring to the past, when I said there is no free will, the caveat is always, there's an omniscient god.

    This time when I said a person will make a decision, it is without a god who is omniscient.

    OT, thread derail Last response to this line of questioning.
