“the word 'justification' has itself had a chequered career over the course of many centuries of debate. As the major historian of the doctrine has noted, the word has long since ceased to mean, in ecclesial debates, what it meant for Paul himself - which is confusing, since the debates have gone on referring to Paul as though he was in fact talking about what they want to talk about. It is as though the greengrocer treated you to a long discussion of how onions are grown, and how best to cook with them, when what you had asked was how much he would charge for three of them.” WantMeanLongFactsThreeCoursesTalkingCareersGoneCenturyMajorsDebateDoctrineTreatedCooksDiscussionHistorianJustificationConfusingReferringOnions Author:N.

“I have great hope and faith, but it's a humanistic faith based in facts; you have to believe that facts exist. We can all arrive at the same facts if we engage in the process of experimentation, observation, and verification, which can solve more of the world's major problems than a debate over whether God does or doesn't exist.” IfsWorldBelieveDoeFactsProblemProcessMajorsSolveDebateObservationExperimentationHope And FaithGreat HopeHumanisticFaith BasedMajor ProblemsVerification Author:Greg Graffin
