Breadtube if it didn't suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.

I'd also point out the nature of the trinity and the Holy Spirits existence as a result of the inherent dialectic present between the static Father and the dynamic Logos of the Son.

The Trinity was heretical, originally.

While its true binatarian conceptions are mostly dominant in the pre pauline church, after the fall of Jerusalem the divinity of the holy spirit becomes fairly standard, though the formal doctrine takes another century to develop.

Iraneus already inherits proto trinitarian views from the Joannines, as does Justin Martyr from the mostly separate Paulines. It's hard to describe how orthodox those church fathers are, since in many ways Iraneus was the first to define heresy

But as AssortedBiscuits said, God's perfection implies that there can't ever be change, so what dialectical relationship can exist between the persons of the trinity? Usually both parts of a dialectic need to be able to move for there to be transformation. Also, since the three different persons still have the same nature, it seems strange to me to say they have any kind of contradiction between them, beyond the fact that each one is not the other two.

Ah, I forgot to mention the Zionist kabbalist asserts the tetragrammaton means, "I am becoming what I am becoming," which makes more sense. As are all of us.

The fact that creation has change implies an inherent contradiction, which is why the Son is even distinct from the Father. Contradiction as a form doesn't inherently mean an inconsistency of nature or of will, any more than a rock falling to the ground has an inconsistency between gravity and intertia. They're both in contradiction in the sense of imbalance, and in accord, in that both are smoothly working according to their nature.

As for the lack of change in one part of the dialectic, that's the contradiction that results in the Spirit, the mediating force that allows modification of the action of the static upon the dynamic. The static cannot change, the dynamic is in action, so something new must occur.
