Re: Understood
In only the Social and Religious Issues forums are you as administrators asking me and others to separate our belief and faith, that the Bible is the living word of God, from the topic when interacting in the debate?
But, you see, you can't use the claim that "the Bible is the living word of God" when arguing with (for example) an atheist, because the atheist doesn't take that as a premise. It would just be a big waste of time.
You can argue for that proposition, on suitable threads, but you can't ever argue from that proposition, any more than an atheist can argue from the proposition that there is no God.
