Re: The "Cracky" and "Wacky" Universalism
Universalism Fallacy #5
Reinterpreting Scripture
The only way to prove Universalism is to re-imagine, re-interpret and become creative with texts properly understood for centuries.
Also, Greek words like 'aionion and aionios' which translated into English denote "everlasting, for ever, for evermore", they say are only used in a temporary sense (eon, eon of the eons, eonian, age-during, age's past, etc.) This has poor scholarship written all over it, and it completely ignores context in which the usage of the words is given.
Universalists also propagate the inaccurate teaching that the word "all" in scripture, is "everything, all with no exceptions" --- this is also easily defeated in light of scripture.
There are more fallacies. I become interested more in the philosophical fallacies (what it means about the Gospel, the Incarnation, etc), but I'm willing to dabble with you.
So, let's jump in!
