It's not?

Hopefully, Champagne!

Ya aintz gots ta lie, Craaaig.

Bold is nice. And I understand your original intent. It works, but it's limited, like victor's god. HOWEVER, When using adverbs and conjunctions like this, please, PLEASE, use all caps. kuala lumpur zhabba meetay (Thanks), NJr

Except on that bright, sunshiny day when he spoke audibly to ol' victor. He spoke so that victor could hear him with crystal clarity through vic's old man, natural, five senses ears. Via physical mechanisms by the laws of physical mechanics. Out loud. Audibly. "Just like I'm speaking to you now."

TRUTH. This is so good. Wow. Thanks, WW. Well said.

Mmmmph

I find it hard to beleeve it could be more effd up than what he wrote.

Excellent, T-Bone. A lot to unpack here. All of it so important. So much. For now, I want to highlight one item that is probably always missed. It's subtle, cunning and sinister. May we as members of Christ’s Body become so filled with love that we may be teachable and have our hearts opened to His Holy Word. Is this what it means to be so filled with love? Teachable? What does it mean to be teachable? What does he mean by teachable? The intended meaning. I've pointed to this problem of indoctrination more than any other over the past ten months. I think this is one of the most important issues facing mankind today. We are all so eager to get taught, and teachers are so eager to teach, but no one is interested in how to learn, how to find out. It seems no one is paying attention. The mouth is open, but no one is inspecting the spoon. I don't know what else to say at this moment. I pray that everyone will deeply contemplate what this means. Understand the intended meaning. It is implicit. It is subtle. It is dark. Great post, T-Bone. A lot going on here. Thanks.

This is a really nice summary of a complex subject, OS. Well done. I missed it this morning because I was so shaken by the rape apologetics from Oldies.

Yeah. The bank and, well....

Ha! Kinda, but worse.

Then your knowledge will be limited to what your teacher taught you. There are other ways to know, to learn.

Try writing for clarity. The confusion starts with how you compose a sentence. Understand what words mean. Meanings of words must be established and accepted by all parties communicating. To interpret is to provide meaning. So, to interpret a meaning is a cumbersome redundancy. Hey! I didn't write your sentences.

Are those the two major attitudes?

84. It teaches that with enough fudging, forced fitting, linguistic acrobatics and exegetical magic tricks, anyone came make the Bible say and mean anything all to fit one's personal, private agenda.

Sorry if this has already been posted by someone, but when I ate a cookie, I got this revelation for the 2nd time, so it's established according to the cartoon: 82: Buckets and buckets of bullshonta.

81. Gloves

Also, something about SIT is a prerequisite for revelation. Keys to walking something something. There was a cartoon that proved it. shabba shabba kilimanjaro lo shonta

He does?

Again, no answer to my questions. As usual. What are you so afraid of? I'll try to ask it another way. An author writes something. In order for the author to understand what he means, he must interpret himself? So the author is doing double work because he couldn't write what he meant, nor understand what he meant the first time? He had to interpret what he meant? Huh? What kind of author does this? One who hasn't slept in weeks because of a meth binge? A paranoid schizophrenic?

The phrasing is so awkward, ineffectual. The author interprets what he meant? Why would an author need or want to do this. Doesn't the (skilled) author say what he means? When would one ever interpret what they meant? Your word choice isn't working. Can you rewrite this for clarity?

No one needs or wants the priest who rapes. Christ doesn't. The boy with the torn rectum doesn't. Let the priests stop with the child f… king.
