@kellyjay said"Faith" is nothing more than a deeply-seated opinion.
No, I have the Lord in my life, you have an opinion.

@vistesd2 saidThe overarching story of the whole from beginning to end. If you are talking about
@KellyJay
That is not what meta-narrative means. A meta-narrative (any meta-narrative) is a narrative about narratives: historical, cultural, philosophical, religious, whatever.
@fmf saidSo what you are saying is as you see it you have nothing about the truth around
"Faith" is nothing more than a deeply-seated opinion.
@kellyjay saidYou too have nothing but opinions about the unknown "truth" about supernatural things "around us".
So what you are saying is as you see it you have nothing about the truth around
you only your opinions of it all?
@vistesd2 saidYou and fmf, if it is all just another opinion; if all you are talking about is another
@KellyJay
No. A meta-narrative would be one that interprets those various narratives, such as those in the various books of the Bible, in order to forge a rational whole – in that case, a theological narrative that connects the diverse Biblical corpus.
The same with philosophy. I offered mine.
@fmf saidThat is your opinion, nothing more, according to you.
You too have nothing but opinions about the unknown "truth" about supernatural things "around us".
As for the truth around us related to things that we can mostly measure and calculate in empirical ways, both you and I can make objective statements about.
@kellyjay saidBoth of us are merely sharing our subjective opinions about these things.
That is your opinion, nothing more, according to you.
@fmf saidThat is your opinion!
Both of us are merely sharing our subjective opinions about these things.
@kellyjay saidAnd your assertions that "Jesus is actually in" you, that you will have everlasting life, the doctrine of atonement etc. etc. etc. ...they are all just opinions i.e. your faith.
That is your opinion!
@kellyjay saidThe same goes for you.
You and fmf, if it is all just another opinion
@fmf saidAgain your opinion which is all you claim you can have.
The same goes for you.
@kellyjay saidYou seem to be suggesting that your opinions are not subjective.
Again your opinion which is all you claim you can have.
@fmf saidNo, the scripture says that God comes to those that seek Him with all of their hearts
And your assertions that "Jesus is actually in" you, that you will have everlasting life, the doctrine of atonement etc. etc. etc. ...they are all just opinions i.e. your faith.
