I won't be playing your idiotic games, Joe. As you well know, the point is that YOU don't back up YOUR claims.
I back up those claims that need to be backed up. For instance, when I claimed that the Arians believed that Jesus was divine, I provided a link to my source. I'll just add that you didn't provide a source for your contrary claim. But that's OK, I'm not running a tally or anything.
On the other hand, I'm still waiting for you to explain Socinian christology to me. In particular, you haven't explained what
this means:
Quote:"For Socinus, Christ was the Logos, but he denied His pre-existence; He was the Word of God as being His interpreter (interpres divinae voluntatis). The passages from St. John which present the Word as the medium of creation were explained by Socinus of regeneration only. At the same time Christ was miraculously begotten: He was a perfect man, He was the appointed mediator, but He was not God, only deified man."
You apparently think this means that Socinians don't believe Jesus was divine. Frankly, I can't figure out what it means, but if you have any insights I'd be delighted if you'd share them.
