I'm afraid Edward T. Babinski's screed has precious little to do with Paul Manata's post. In fact the sole connection which I can discern is the mere mention of the word "intuition." It's as if Babinski simply saw the word "intuition" in Manata's post and decided this would be a fine time to veer off on to his own little rant or tirade.
The word must have been like a magical word or spell to wake the oafish Babinski from his deep and dreamless slumber into his blissful fairy tale land where what Babinski mouths is always relevant to the conversation even if to everyone else it sounds something like "ooh ooh ahh ahh ahh"!
Since this is hardly the first time I've noticed Babinski's off-topic diatribe on his topic du jour, I take it he is intentionally attempting to derail the conversation. In this respect Babinski is a troll. But the Babinski troll must be like the nonsensical jabberwocky galumphing and chortling its way straight through the hedges and smack into the woods. Certainly it's a far cry from the subtle and clever internet trolls with which many people online are acquainted and accustomed.
Babinski's profile notes he's a librarian. Based on his behavior on this weblog, I'd expect if a patron asked Babinski for a book on literary criticism or the philosophy of mind, he would instead receive a stack of books on bananas.

I LOLed.
Hard to explain to my 5 yr old son what is so funny, but it certainly is.
Babinski posted this here I guess because his comment didn't get published at my blog. Sorry about that. FWIW, Ed, I set up a program so that the posts of trolls and village atheists and those who post lengthy off-topic screeds, are immediately consigned to the black hole of the blogosphere, forever.

EDWARD T. BABINSKI SAID:
ReplyDelete"1) Intuition can't bring all Christians together,"
So what?
"2) Citing Scripture can't bring all Christians together."
That's not its purpose.
"3) The supernatural power of the Holy Spirit can't bring all Christians together."
Of course the Holy Spirit can do that. He chooses not to.
"4) Jesus' alleged prayer for 'complete unity' was successful only..."
Success correlates with intent.
"The whole religious world (not just Christianity) continues to multiply by dividing."
Each subsequent generation has to appropriate the Christian faith. That usually occurs through conversion or within preexisting denominations.
