rather which are posited as Truth. The propositon is still either true or not true in actuality. It cannot be both. It can not be true for some people and not true for other people.
A proposition can be true (metaphysically) without being (yet)proven to be true. Suppose there is revealed Truth from God Himself. Suppose it cannot be otherwise proved or disproved. Then a person can logically accept that revealed truth as being true on the basis of revelation supported by reason. If you accept the source of the revelation, and/or the paths of your own human reason, no reason not to . . .(since it is not provably not true) . . . What if you choose not to accept the source of the revelation? If the proposition is true, it is still true, for you and everyone else . . . Its acceptance does not make it true. Its nonacceptance does not make it not true.
There is no need for derision over the fact that human knowledge and understanding of the Universe have developed over time. Expanding scientific knowledge of the material Universe will not ultimately answer the question of whether or not the immaterial exits, since science deals with questions of the material world. That is the realm of Metaphysics, which is likewise approachable by reason.
Bwah? Special or general?
Thought experiments involving the space twins, e.g. if caught in a massive gravitational field, time compared to the other twin on earth would be such that a whole life-time for the earth twin appears to the distant twin as the same "moment" in time, as all the light from all those events reach the trapped twin at the "same" time. If this analogy helps a person conceptualize "eternity", what is wrong with that? BTW, there is so much out there on space twin thought experiments. Much as I enjoy these discussions, lexcorp, I really cannot get into debating relativity and evolution and etc. with you. I just don't have the "time" . . .
Using the gift of rational thought does not lead an outsider to become a Catholic, or any other religion
It has for some and conversion biographies are out there. I'll leave it at that for now . . .
