Is ordination of women to be Pastors [Overseer/Bishop] orthodox?

[Jesse]

On the contrary: you quote sources uncritically which bear little relevance to the point being discussed.

I understand the need to ignore the answer to your question. Maybe someone will take you by the hand and explain it to you in detail. I just can't do it.

Nonsense. Many sources you quote you do so without prior critical evaluation, making many points mere appeal to authorities, and often irrelevant ones at that. Then you whine and bluster when people point out this fact.

Lol. That's okay Paprika. You don't really need to understand what you are reading. You keep being you, bro.

[Paprika]

I understand the need to ignore the answer to your question. Maybe someone will take you by the hand and explain it to you in detail. I just can't do it.

Yes, it's been clear that you can't do any explanation on the subject in detail.

Lol. That's okay Paprika. You don't really need to understand what you are reading. You keep being you, bro.

Your uncritical quoting necessitates that you don't actually bother to understand what you're reading. Projecting much?

[Jesse]

Yes, it's been clear that you can't do any explanation on the subject in detail.

Not really. I just don't get paid to teach kindergarten classes.

Your uncritical quoting necessitates that you don't actually bother to understand what you're reading. Projecting much?

Ugh. You keep pulling me in. It's like a black hole of stupid. I gotta stop. This is getting way off-topic.

[Paprika]

Not really. I just don't get paid to teach kindergarten classes.

Given your performance here I doubt you can teach anything on this subject competently.

Ugh. You keep pulling me in. It's like a black hole of stupid. I gotta stop. This is getting way off-topic.

So it's my fault that you can't help yourself?

[Jesse]

Given your performance here I doubt you can teach anything on this subject competently.

Certainly nothing you would ever be able to understand. We would have to first work on your comprehension and how to apply evidence.

So it's my fault that you can't help yourself?

Yes. Now don't you feel bad about it? You should be ashamed of yourself.

[Paprika]

Certainly nothing you would ever be able to understand. We would have to first work on your comprehension and how to apply evidence.

I need to modify my earlier statement: no one should learn anything about good argumentation from you, but to learn how to find authorities to either make irrelevant points or merely assert what is debated? You won't be half bad at that.

Yes. Now don't you feel bad about it? You should be ashamed of yourself.

You remind me of CP: "I shouldn't be here arguing with you!" and yet he continued.

This is where understanding what you are reading comes in handy. Also, How dare you sir!

You remind me of CP: "I shouldn't be here arguing with you!" and yet he continued.

Lol. I can't really blame him though. It is like a gravitational force. But I really should stop and get to bed.

Jesse - trying to have a discussion with the Papster is like trying to talk some sense into Mickiel. You're better off just letting him blog.

I don't normally side with Paprika, but this has been an entertaining read. Really, Jesse, if you're going to have the debate, then jump in and have the debate. He's missing the point you're trying to make, and you've gone most of the way towards explaining it, but you won't bridge the gap? I don't understand why this has devolved into such a mud-slinging contest between you two.

It was a nice thread up until a few pages ago, and now there's so much fecal matter in here I'm beginning to wonder why I haven't let yet.

I guess I don't understand where you are going with this? Not real sure what this gap is I am suppose to be bridging or how you think I haven't been debating.

I don't see the jabs Paprika and I were giving each other as being that much of a big deal. We are not tearing each others throats out. Just a bit of harmless tweaking. I guess I just don't see the problem.

So...here you say you're ignoring the answer to the question he has asked. You seem to know the answer, but won't tell him.

Now you say you don't know what "gap" you're supposed to be bridging for him (a.k.a which question of his to answer). Are you pretending to be obtuse, or do you really not know what he's talking about? Maybe I've misread this whole conversation, I dunno.

Huh? I said that I understood the reason for him ignoring the answer to his question.

I'm sorry, but I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.

Never mind, then.

Perhaps his point is a mere mirage, which is why he avoids close scrutiny of it by making quotations which merely affirm the view instead of proving it.

It was a nice thread up until a few pages ago, and now there's so much fecal matter in here I'm beginning to wonder why I haven't let yet.

The rhetoric isn't a big deal.

Looks like someone's memory needs refreshing.
