>Brutally mogs every philosopher>For all timeFour fucking wordsHow did he do it
Actually a very Christian position, if you think about it. Not surprising from Pope, who was a Catholic, and was one at a time when it wasn't easy to be Catholic in England.
>rightoh nooh no no no no
>>25043099that is a grvke
>>25043099so much for the tolerant left
>>25043099dumbest piece of sludge i've ever read. i can obviously comprehend of something being true and yet being unjust, and point to real world examples of the same like alexander pope not being trampled by an ox
>>25043102Christianity is literally about how creation is inherently wrong and had to be magically redeemed by God blood sacrificing himself. Christcucks fucking baffle me in how they manage to see their twisted religion as somehow optimistic or beautiful.
>>25043125>Christianity is literally about how creation is inherently wrongWrong, creation isn't inherently anything in Christianity except creation. Temporally, it was subject to death and futility until Christ redeemed Creation with his sacrifice.>God blood sacrificing himself.Wrong again, Jesus, a human being, sacrificed himself.
>>25043220that's a heresy
>>25043220>>25043227yeah wat, why are you praising pope for being catholic and then saying it is false that God sacrificed himself? it's catholic dogma that Christ is both fully god and fully man.
>>25043220>>25043235also it's not really relevant to my point whether creation is inherently or contingently wrong, since Pope said 'whatever is, is right', not 'whatever is, is not inherently wrong but could contingently become wrong.' unless you think that whatever is temporal doesn't exist.
>>25043235I am not the same anon>>25043237the statement is so vague it doesn't actually hold up to scrutinygreat quote to remind yourself to just go with the flow sometimes though ig
>>25043099>*shoot him in the face and rape his daughter*You got that right
>>25043099Not an argument, he didn't mog anyone here. You're just wowed by sophistry.
>>25043125>is literally about how creation is inherently wrongIt is not. All creation and all created things start out as Good, because they were created by God and God is good. Anything that exists, insofar that it exists, is good, which is basically what Pope says.As Augustine puts it, evil is a privation. There is no truly, fully evil thing, just a good thing that has been twisted and corrupted and turned aside from goodness. But its fundamental existence is still good. Even the sinners in Hell have some goodness by virtue of their existence.
>>25043370ok so the flesh insofar as it's evil doesn't exist, therefore the flesh can't cause a person to sin? fuck off, even the subsequent neoplatonists abandoned that idea. I'm not arguing sophistry where you redefine what it means for something to exist.
>>25043390>ok so the flesh insofar as it's evil doesn't existflesh isn't inherently evil. Read the first few chapters of Genesis again. It's like 2-3 pages max.
>>25043391more pedantry, i'm talking about after original sin, every man inherently has the inclination to sin. I
>>25043390>the flesh, insofar as it's evil, doesn't exist; therefore, the flesh can't cause a person to sin.nah, maybe more like>the flesh exists deprived of good; therefore, the flesh causes a person to sinhowever, let’s add in Pope’s axiom>whatever is, is rightso this state of the flesh is right? yes, because now the spirit of god glorifies man: wherever the flesh caused sin now the spirit superabundantly gives grace. this is, therefore this is right.
>>25043396>the flesh exists deprived of good>the flesh existsthank you>wherever the flesh caused sin now the spirit superabundantly gives graceso antinomianism
>>25043398of course the flesh existsdo we even need to go over a proof of that?>so antinomianismwhat do you think that means?
>>25043125Chriscucks getting btfo'd constantly. Must be so embarrassing. Books for this feel?
>>25043099Whatever.
