More on Mathematical Platonism
Jan 25, 2020, 10:04 AM I understand that you can’t convince a theologian to abandon supernatural dependency, nor can you convince a platonist to abandon his independence from reality.

The Antagonists in The Iliad and The Bible: What All Revolutionaries Claim to Be
Jan 25, 2020, 3:52 PM by Don Miguel All I am pointing out is that there is a big difference in the relations between the protagonists and antogonists of the Illiad and that Bible.

Jan 25, 2020, 4:23 PM by Luke Weinhagen Passive morality isn’t.
