“The great merit of Stephen Gould's account of the disastrous history of phychometrics is that he shifts the argument from a sterile contest between environmentalists and hereditarians and turns it into an argument between those who are impressed with what our biology stops us doing and those who are impressed with what it allows us to do.” TurnsArgumentAccountsMeritBiologyImpressedContestsEnvironmentalist Author:Stephen Jay Gould

“Of course, Jastrow's comment is exaggerated at best; theologians hardly predicted the Big Bang. If our universe turns out to be closed, hence with an end, this does not mean apocalyptic visions of the end of the world were on target. And even if a beginning for the universe is a successful prediction of one version of theism, this is still not that impressive. After all, even a stopped clock is right twice a day. The Big Bang becomes strong support for God only with an argument showing that such a beginning requires a Creator.” IfsWorldMeanDoeStillsEndsBigsReligionTurnsUniverseCoursesStrongVisionSupportSuccessfulArgumentCreatorVersionsClockTargetCommentPredictionsTheologianEnd Of The WorldBangsImpressiveExaggeratedApocalypticTheismStopped Clock Author:Taner Edis

“Does it follow from: 'turn ye' that therefore you can turn? Does it follow from "'Love the Lord thy God with all thy heart' (Deut 6.5) that therefore you can love with all your heart? What do arguments of this kind prove, but the 'free-will' does not need the grace of God, but can do all things by its own power....But it does not follow from this that man is converted by his own power, nor do the words say so; they simply say: "if thou wilt turn,telling man what he should do. When he knows it, and sees that he cannot do it, he will ask whence he may find ability to do it..." 164” IfsKnowsMenNeedsShouldHeartKindMayDoeTurnsAsksCan DoAbilityLordGraceProveArgumentAll ThingsFree WillGrace Of God Author:Martin Luther
