      Is it not clear that statements are meant to fall? Will we not undermine the statemency for their statements? Haven’t I already questioned within their walls?


      @felicity

      Has God not worked through our free will since forever?

      Is this not the true art of answer within a question? Is this the true way? Would God not approve such skilled use of questions?

        Will everyone heed to this warning?

        Are there people amongst us who do not question, but instead answer? Who are they? Will they not show themselves from their secret places? Them who call themselves the Statemecists? Will you heed to their faulty extreme ideologies? Will you join them, or will you stand with me to end such foolishness? I ask you now, will you make your choice?

        What if I am an exclamationist??!! (That meaning I put exclamations at the end of every sentence!) (I suppose I am in between! I could put both an exclamation point and question mark at the end of questions; and I could also put an exclamation mark and it still be a statement!)

         

        Take note:

        (If anyone at this point is questioning why we have a topic for random questions on a forum for writing, it is so that we may grow further in our God-given creativity.) 😂

        Another question to ponder:

        What does bubblegum taste like?! If it is a flavor, then how would you describe it?! Does it taste like the color pink?!

         

        (Aha! I did not forget the exclamation points!)

              @esther-c

              The idea trumps the Statemecists, does it not? Yet why choose exclamations over questions? Do exclamations not rely on more emotion that actual fact, and statements on sometimes flimsy “truths?” Isn’t it clear that questions rarely have these problems?

                (Possibly! But I choose exclamations because they are fun to use!!!)

                 

                (In all seriousness, this is hilarious, putting exclamation points after all of my sentences. 😂🤣 It looks like I’m either really mad or really excited. 🤣🤣)

                    Are you not a traitor then? Do you not see the falsehoods you’ve built as your foundation? I ask all, do you not see the treacherous pit our once friend, now foe, has fallen to?

                      Will I make my choice? Is it not apparent that so far I have done my best to abide by the rules and ordinances as set forth? Who else will make the commitment?

                      Who else will present their loyalty? Orielle, Arcanin, Felicity, and all who have given pledge, shall we draw swords?

                              Does not your geometric knowledge dwarf mine? I would like to learn more; do you have a recommendation for a book I could read/study on topology?

                              (Hmm, the majority of my own study has actually been from a variety of online resources, but there are a lot of good books. The issue with most textbooks though is that they often ask for a formal background in things like Set Theory. Even with that, it’s still takes a while going though definitions and calculations to get any intuitive idea of the geometric side of topology, if that’s what interests you. There’s thousands of great videos for a topology introduction that purely focus on the intuitive nature, then after you have an basic understanding of that, I would study some set theory, then I would finally get a textbook to get into the actual rigorous part to solidify a deeper understanding of what topology actually is. If you don’t like videos, I would try reading a separate textbook on an introduction of Set Theory then on Topology. You just might have an issue because it won’t seem in any way related to geometry, though Set Theory is still really fun.)

                              Did God create the language Adam and Eve spoke?

                              Did Adam not name all the creatures of the deep, the earth, and the sky?

                              Should I know who Mr. Godel is? So you’re saying that you don’t think we have all logic yet? When do you think we will get it, if ever?

                              (Kurt Gödel was a German logician that shook the entirety of mathematics by proving what he called the incompleteness theorem. The theorem basically stated that mathematical system cannot axiomatically prove every statement within that system. This is secretly the same logic that lead Alan Turing to come across what he called the Halting problem, redefining computer science and its bounds. As well as Russell’s paradox that shows that Set Theory, a theory that seemed like it could be the bases of all mathematics made from pure logic was shown a inconsistency, that had to be remodeled. These 3 men essentially mathematically proved the same thing in completely different fields in completely different ways, that logic as we currently understand it has a boundary that we mathematically cannot pass. Personally, I believe we will only have full access to all logic when we enter the next life, where we are not bound by axiomatic systems where we need to start from one truth to derive another truth, but instead would simply have a fully knowledge of the continuum, understanding each truth and every truth as one whole truth, if that makes sense.)

                              My intuition says yes, but would we ever find it? Are questions infinite? Would the ultimate question’s answer be a true statement? Would that statement be the answer to all questions?

                              If questions are infinite, in what sense are they infinite, and what kind of infinity?

                              No, doesn’t God know logically prior to making His divine decree what free creatures would do in any possible scenario? Therefore our free will is within God’s divine decree?

                              Does that not depend entirely on your personal theology? Is that not based off of Molinism, a theory of a man, as genius and committed to God as he may be, can it be considered doctrine? (Just so you know, this is in no way criticism, I firmly believe in personal revelation, and Molina could most certainty be correct, but no, it would not settle the philosophical debate, even if it was considered more than it already was. Because it is a debate of man. I personally believe that our agency (free will) is a vital part of God’s plan, however it cannot also be denied that He is all knowing, which makes things harder to work out. Molinism does well in preserve the idea of free will as well as a perfect knowledge, but whether that is the actual nature of reality, one could not say without either doctrine confirming it, or personal revelation, which you for example may have actually received on the manner.)

                                So have you’ve fallen for the subtle lies of the Statmency, only to deny it with partial questions? So your creating your own philosophy based off of extremities and inconsistencies?

                                  Tis I of the Statemency. So I see you have chosen both statements and questions, I think you are to be a mercenary of a sort.

                                  But if the people of questions do not except this, then I say you can join our side of the battle! Using their own questions against them, but with the added power  of statements.

                                  Bwahahaha
