  1. Well, it's not like each generation becomes progressively smarter. If you live 80 years, you get 80 years "smart". The next generation lives 80 years and they, too, get 80 years "smart". But, collectively, the next generation to follow doesn't start out with 160 years of "smart" built in.
  2. I wouldn't read too much depth into it. Wierwille saw a forgotten product (call it the hula hoop, if you will.) and repackaged it for a new market.
  3. The HS field was gaining a lot of steam in the early 1900s. That's when speaking in tongues saw a revival movement of sorts. The modern Pentecostal Christian practice of glossolalia is often said to have originated around the beginning of the twentieth century in the United States. The city of Topeka, Kansas is often cited as the center of the Pentecostal movement and the resurgence of glossolalia in the Church. Charles Fox Parham, a holiness preacher and founder of Bethel Bible College in 1900, is given credit for being the one who influenced modern Pentecostalism. During what has been called a sermon by Parham, a bold student named Agnes Ozman asked him for prayer and the laying on of hands to specifically ask God to fill her with the Holy Spirit. This was the night of New Year's Eve, 1900. She became the first of many students to experience glossolalia, coincidentally in the first hours of the twentieth century. Parham followed within the next few days, and before the end of January 1901, glossolalia was being discussed in newspapers as a sign of the second advent of Pentecost. SOURCE While it appears that speaking in tongues was not first received through Parham's ministry, the focus on what it meant (as the "evidence") appears to have started there, and shortly afterwards it gained momentum. Most in the Pentecostal movement would point to him as being a key person in the early days of the movement. Prior to 1906 (i.e. in 1903 - 1905), Parham held services in Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Texas, where "baptism of the holy spirit with speaking in tongues" was often present. William Seymour, the initial preacher at Azusa street, attended Parham's bible college in the winter of 1905, and went out from there to Los Angeles, bringing many of Parham's teachings with him.

  6. I guess there must be some kind of connection between kitchen utensils and Blues.
  7. Yeah, I realize that much about copyrights as I own several myself. Still, if you are pitching your wares to potential clients, it's best not to introduce anything that might confuse or dissuade them from giving a listen. If I received a tape/CD with that particular title, I might be inclined to assume it was . I know you're not supposed to assume anything, but, face it, people do. I really do see potential in it, though. Haven't had much time to listen to the rest.

  9. That one, I believe, actually "originated" with (He's not my uncle) Harry.

    A sad week

    I think some of these things start to hit closer to home as we age and get a glimpse of our own mortality.
  11. I just listened to Baby You're a Star (live version). Solid and unpretentious. Simple but effective progression. Very nice voice. I can hear this being done with just a hint of Dobro and a splash of fiddle. Might be a good one for someone like Alison Krauss. May be an issue with the title, though, as there is already a song with the same title.

  13. Just what I need, another "expert" on "The Real Truth".

  15. I don't see anything in that scripture to indicate that man can't make the planet uninhabitable.
  16. LOL! That's a real knee slapper! No, according to Wierwille & Co., John Lennon, along with the other 3 Beatles, was born again of the "Seed of The Serpent". We learned, in The Advanced Class, that the only way you can make it to the top in show-biz is if you sell out to the bogeyman Devil.
  17. Isn't this part of what confounds people when they get a glimpse behind the curtain? They come here and find out their long time idol was nothing but a shell game operator.
  18. Shame on you. You really need to renew your mind.
