Those of us who know calculus have to take a constant beating from well-intentioned but mathematically uncurious people for "inventing" things that aren't in their "elementary mathematics" book. And rather than try to understand that the elements of elmentary math go together to make up calculus, they call us devils for refusing to stick to "just the elementary math book."

Probably because much of your version of calculus is invented. The real calculus is in the Scriptures, and it is a never-ending discovery.....

Does that mean that your knowledge of Scripture can continue to grow over time?

Glad you're here. As you can see, much of the "calculus" is simply taking two true statements and combining them in a logically true way. And yet folks want to assign mystical meaning to terms that just isn't there and are deathly afraid to say even that x+2=4 if we know x=2.

What are your thoughts? Do you choke on the concept of Theotokos, or "God-bearer"? Do you think Jesus is God? Do you think Mary gave birth to Jesus?
