Do you really believe that the correct doctrine of Jesus Christ and the false doctrine of the Devil are the same thing? :eek:

Broad sweeping generalizations is a form of lazy argumentation in my book.

A false dichotomy (also called a false dilemma) is a logical fallacy where a situation is presented as having only two options or outcomes, when in fact there may be others.



It simplifies complex issues unfairly and forces people to choose between extremes.

False dichotomy.

Actually, it isn’t. The error that permeates Intersection’s posts is the implicit conflation of “all” into the idea of “correct doctrine”.

In reality, people can believe some correct doctrines and some incorrect doctrines at the same time… even knowingly. They are in process… as we all are. Growth happens when we reject the false doctrines (typically one by one) and embrace the related sound doctrines.

What Intersection seems to think (wrongly) is that all saved people believe only correct doctrines all the time, and anyone who believes anything false is not saved. By his own warped logic, he himself is not saved.

Thank you, Lord, for the "ignore" feature. Goodbye, Intersection, which I suspect is an allusion to your philosophical bent.

Intersectionality is an analytical framework for understanding how groups' and individuals' social and political identities result in unique combinations of discrimination and privilege.

Thank you for that very helpful tip!
I had reached the conclusion that Intersection was a paid troll, tasked with picking up a Profile and making as many posts as possible, to get the Profile tagged "Well known member", so that it could be used by others at a later date as part of a foreign influence operation....

Only the elect ever ultimately believe the correct doctrine of Jesus Christ. You can't prove that those who are not the elect will ever ultimately believe the correct doctrine of Jesus Christ. :love:
