It just occurred to me there are at least 8 TMOGs. Victor, bless his little heart, ANOINTED Loy's head with oil. OIL. Doesn't that make Loy the 8th TMOG?

7 of 9? Where did you get THAT? 9 is 3 to the 2nd power. And we don't do 3 around here. No trinity. No 3 crucified. No sir! Five crucified. That's riiight. Now the New Testament has 27 books. That's 3 to the 3rd power. That's impossible. That's just devilish. Anyway, it's not in the original. Now, take your eyeballs...er... I mean BIBLES out and turn to any of the Gospels. Pick one. Any one. Now, rip it out. Those records are to (T-O) the Jews. You're not a Jew are you? No? Good. Just tear it out. And you end up with what? 26. That's right. 26 books in the New Testament That's what Gawd intended. See, man made it 27, but Gawd made it 26. See how simple that was? Didn't even need a match.

Look, it's real simple, kids. It's just like PROS. It's just glove fitting is all it is. Just tremendous the order of these things... Carl was the 4th. Jasper was the 5th. Scott was the 6th. Of course, VPW was the 7th. Isn't that wonderful! Yes, it is. Bless your little hearts. And you can have believing faith that this is true because I said so. Believing faith implies obedience faith. I can't prove any of it. Only a coordinator of music with a trusty A/V guy can prove the matchless order of these things. Unless the A/V guy gets too tired, then the whole thing falls apart.

Four trees. The people were trees. Axiomatically, the trees were people. The number 4 is significant because of 18th century French tombstones. "The earth is flat," said a man who wrote a pamphlet called "Also." Gosh, all this beleeeving IS, indeed, exhausting. I hope it's not deadly.

You read the accuracy like it has never been read before. He stopped the Russians once by beleeeving. Imagine what VPW could do if he didn't get so tired that he stopped beleeeving. Well, he could stop them again, that's what. He was the seventh, after all. After Scott, precisely.

If we could find our who this music coordinator is, we could ask him directly. I suspect this coordinator of music groups is the funniest man of all time. A real clever fellow. An entertainer. It's worth finding out if he has a podcast or YouTube channel.

The source of this is imagination from a mind transformed through the "rubbing in by repetition." A mind of an apologist walking by the spirit of delusion, clutching desperately to the blinding bull$hit. A mind of an apologist fervent in his rejection of the freedom required to know that which is eternal, Truth, Love. Or, to provide a very loose, free interpretation literally according to usage: it comes from the devil himself.

Bernie Madoff gave $millions to philanthropic endeavors, but all anyone wants to focus on are the lies and the defrauding of thousands out of $billions. Harvey Weinstein produced Pulp Fiction, True Romance and Things to Do in Denver When Your Dead, but all anyone wants to focus on is the raping. Michael Jackson made Thriller. THRILLER. But all anyone wants to focus on is the child f#cking.

The seventh and FINAL. The eschaton is near.

Ahhh... but Skippy was merely A man of God, not THE man of God.

I wish I could like this 7 x 70!! I had to look up Barbara Brown Taylor. She's an Episcopal priest. Wow. Didn't expect that. The one who claims to have the truth is surely the one who does not.

The apologist's belief: VPW had a one of a kind ministry. The reasons why (W-H-Y) the apologist clings to the belief: The music coordinator said VP was the 7th "The man of God." (Authority) The message of VP's slot in the lineage is unique, previous never heard by the apologist. (Non sequitur) The meaning of this message is unknown to the apologist. (Non sequitur) Well, there you have it. The apologist's epistemology: Authority plus two Non Sequiturs equals the fixation of belief by Tenacity. (The weakest reason to believe anything.) The music coordinator said something, I don't understand it, therefore I believe it, that settles it The fruit salad of a dull mind - a mind dulled by "rubbing in by repetition." As for the other six The Men of God? Moses, some guy in Kings (thanks Oldies), Timothy, Carl, Jasper and Scott.

I'm sorry. I thought VPW renounced his own law. Y'all were talking about JL renouncing it. I get it. Well that just isn't so funny now. What a let down.

Really?!? Who can keep up with all the bull$hit! I feel like I've read everything written here over the years on this "law," but I just cat remember all the nonsense. I can barely type, I'm laughing so hard. How (H-O-W) did he kinda renounce the law of believing? I really don't need an answer, Waysider. Your post is brilliant just as it is.

Aha! There it is! It must have slipped out of my oily fingers. You know. From the anointing.

Thanks, T-Bone, for putting all these maxims in one place. Some of these sayings offer good advice or have a ring of truth to them, but in the context of the cult, they are all tools and weapons for manipulation and abuse. Subtle. Sinister. Wicked. Small minds talk about people; average minds talk about events; great minds talk about God’s Word. (Life Lines) The original form is slightly different, right? "...great minds talk about ideas." Who originally said this? Stephen Covey? Believing implies obedience. (Life Lines) No it doesn't, but if it does, it's one more reason not to believe in belief.

OldSkool, your story resonates deeply with me. I was never corps, but I was married for eleven years to a vpw-loving narcissist whose flying monkeys were corps. I know about the constant walking on eggshells, the self-loathing, the self-medicating, the hellish world of confusion and suicidal despair for never being good enough. Spiritual abuse is real, Psychological abuse is real. Religious abuse is real. And it's deadly. Please know these fruits are not of God, Truth, Love. All are lies. ALL OF IT. There is no precious baby to be removed before throwing out the bath water. The baby is a rotten, diseased grown man yelling with a cardboard sign and selling pencils from a cup. He has contaminated the entire bath room. Only complete demolition will do. I can't say this enough: Thank God for Grease Spot Cafe.

Great point, WordWolf. I think if JWG would have lived long enough, he would have rejected the Trinity and that would have blessed him. At least, that's what my music coordinator said. And even though I don't know what that even means, I'm going to enjoy it while I can.

Indeed. And this: "Whatever it is you see is not what reality is - it's adaptive perception." A really fascinating interview with Donald Hoffman. After all the science and math, which is too advanced for me, they discuss God or spirituality. Maybe this needs its own thread. Enjoy it while you can.

Sterling silver bracelets engraved with credentials: "The Seventh TMOG" mmmmmph

Not even trying to make anyone laugh. I'm being dead serious. But if anything is funny, it's because it's true.

Well, it seems it's no different than it's ever been. How can one go beyond what one is taught? Right? This is taught behavior. It's even approved behavior as long as no one finds out and you BELEEEVE for it to manifest operationally. It all goes back to VPW. All of it. He's the original teacher, The Doctor, The Seventh TMOG. This is what he taught. How can his disciples go beyond what they were taught?

Yep. But if you want to be mathematically precise, it leads to sodomy. Forced, coerced sodomy.

No. But that's ok. Though I very much appreciate dark humor, dogmatism is too dark, even for me. I find it physically repulsive; it causes inflammation in my brain and my heart and makes me sick.

So tempting... I'd hate to further derail this thread....
