I wonder if you could use Feruchemy. Remember those disc things in BoM? What if you were able to store connection to Elantris and then tap it so that you could use AonDor anywhere?

That would make a lot of sense. Scadrians are the first to discover space travel, right? That could explain Tress. Then the Elantrians in SH were simply in the…[Read more]

@rae

You still haven’t proven that mathematics wasn’t created by God. Ihnk in is wise, we will have to agree to disagree and turn away, unless you want to continue.

Mathematics, logic, emotion would not exist without God, and I believe that God created them. But I can’t really prove that, neither can you disprove it.

I actually never was trying…[Read more]

@jonas

I think Sanderson said you would have to “hack” the magic system to get AonDor to work off world.

In other words, RAFO😂

Sanderson is well known for his magic systems, but I feel like AonDor and all of the other magic systems that are only hinted at are all fairly boring. AonDor is quite generic for a magic system. It can do basically any…

Heyyy, good choices. I love it!

Yes! You totally should! I don’t’ know cuz about your charries, but it’d still be fun! 😁

@freedomwriter76 (thanks for the idea! 😝) @lightoverdarkness6 @smiley @mineralizedwritings @savannah_grace2009 @rae @grcr @whalekeeper @keilah-h @hybridlore

Okayyy! I’m copying Freedom, so you basically get to pick who you want to spend a day with. These are from different WIPs and I still don’t have as much as Freedom. (Does anyone really? &#x…[Read more]

Okay, my hands are starting to sweat, which happens when I get excited.

😁

In context, your verse actually means that Paul can bear, can do anything God wants him to do if God wills it and strengthens him.

Yeah, makes sense to me!

The Doctrine of Hermeneutics. The latter part of that verse (John 1:3) says simply that what this passage means by…

@rae

Alright. Well, I think I just did that with the verses I showed, unless there’s still a fallacy somewhere.

@rae

While I’m laying my beliefs on the table, I’m also a Creationist, I believe strongly in the doctrine of hermeneutics, I believe in context, and I often take a literal viewpoint of the Bible’s text unless it is clearly poetic.

I just realized I missed this. I’m not familiar of the doctrine of hermeneutics, do you just mean Sola Sciptura? When…[Read more]

@rae

I didn’t think you were. I’m used to that, my grandfather and my…technically step-grandmother are not Calvinists either. In fact, Grandpa openly opposes Calvinism to the point of saying that John Calvin was a heretic. It has caused some…divisions to say the least.

I’m sorry to hear that:( Differences in those sorts of things will create…[Read more]

@jonas

Yeah, I enjoyed it, but I see what you mean. There’s so much about the Elantrians I want to know about though, like if there is a locational influence on how much power an Elantrian has, then when did they figure out how to explore the whole Cosmere, still bearing their powers?

@freedomwriter76

Umm… Yes please!!! I love this idea so much!! 😝

M’kay, here we gooo…

Fin, Leo, Wolfgang, Jacob, Iris, Ezra andddd… Erich. (I don’t think that’s exactly $25, but whatever.)

(I am so gonna have to do this with my charries now… 😏)

@jonas Don’t worry I don’t typically lose track of my characters. I’ve just been kinda tired and busy lately.

@everyone I might actually disappear for a few days, but I’m not sure

@freedomwriter76

Leonnnn 😭

@rae

Mars hill was the place of philosephers.

Ok, cool!

Though, if there was nothing to teach us about one and two, then we wouldn’t know about it. Also, math would not exist if God didn’t. Someone has to create it right? math is not outside of God, He could break math when He wanted to, but He is so orderly, and never changes that I don’t think…

@freedomwriter76

Oh my goodness! It’s so simple, but it looks so good!!

@rae

Put that way…XD Anselm would probably never win a debate on Mars hill!

Lol, yeah, I don’t know much about Mars hill, but yes, his rhetoric seems to ultimately fall flat.

I’ve heard variations of this idea. Essentially the idea that mathematics is essentially assumed to be not self sufficient, because mathematics is something that only s…[Read more]

@rae

Great point. That’s one argument many have made to Aquinas’ cosmological arguments, saying it’s too disconnected from the God of Abraham.  In this case though, I would go further. One of Anselm’s students found this argument to be completely invalid. He said to imagine the most perfect island. This island is so great to live on that nothing…[Read more]

@rae

Sorry my response is so late! But I was finally able to get to this.

M’kay. So overall, I was a little confused at what was going on, maybe because some oddly worded sentences, or maybe I was reading it too fast. XD That’s the initial thing I noticed.

I’m not sure what other feedback to give. You said some parts were giving you troub…[Read more]
