  1. Here's how the quotes went: "Hold it! You'd never last five minutes in a New York subway!" *WHAM* *WHAM* "Now, THAT's how it's done!" MadDog, during the fight with the biker gang at the road closing. "You go find a doctor. Get me Dr. Kildare. Get me Dr. Livingston. Get me Dr. Frankenstein. Just get me a doctor!" "I'm Nikolas Van Helsing, professor of proctology and other related tendencies. A graduate of the University of Rangoon. And assorted night classes at the Knoxville Tennessee school of faith healing." "You may be a little over-qualified for this job." "I'm sure that doctor's a very sweet man, basically." "Oh, thank you." "But don't you EVER tell me where you found him. EVER." The ambulance needed a new doctor at the last minute. They got Jack Elam as a really weird MD. " I'd like to welcome you all to an event that's sometimes been called the Automotive counterpart to the Bay of Pigs." The exposition dump at the beginning of the race began with this line-said by the man whose race the movie was based on. "I just want to thank you for informin' them about us back in Missouri. You know, how we're flashers and sex maniacs." "Well, I was just repayin' you for what you and the chocolate monk did back in Ohio." The 2 "priests" in the Ferrari, and the ambulance, their crews talking over sabotaging each other during the race. "Oh, what is there to understand? I'm looking at my son, Seymour Goldfarb, Jr., son of Seymour Goldfarb, God rest his soul, and heir to the Goldfarb Girdles fortune. And what is he doing? Walking around, acting like he was some goy movie star named Roger Moore. And for this I sent you to the best schools? For this I'm spending eight thousand on orthodonture work? For this I'm going broke paying that Beverly Hills analyst?" A movie with a man deluded into thinking he's Roger Moore? How many of those do you know? (Played by RM, of course.) "Come on! 1000 miles on one wheel? We're trying to win a race, not set a record! " The motorcycle, with the fat guy in back, causing the cycle to operate in a continuous wheelie. "Of course you know certain skeptics note that perhaps 10,000 of the nations's most elite highway patrolmen are out there waiting for us after we start, but let's stay positively: Think of the fact that there's not one state in the 50 that has the death penalty for speeding... although I'm not so sure about Ohio." Finishing the exposition dump preceding the race. (Same speaker, still speaking.) "I wonder why that guy parked his truck in the lobby?" "Only in America! Get me 12 suites, better yet, the entire floor!" The sheik, upon arriving at the hotel, the night before the race. "Why'd he call me Shorty?? "'Cause you're small. Small. S - M - all." The 2 "priests", Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. I thought I was going to have to quote titular lines soon.

  3. "So now you'd better stop, and rebuild all your ruins. For peace and trust can win the day, in spite of all your losing." How soft your fields so green. Can whisper tales of gore. Of how we calmed the tides of war. We are your overlords."

  8. This was a strange movie. It was neither the first, nor the last, appearance of the title character. (To date, would you believe he's appeared in 4 movies?) This movie managed to put together hippies, a reservation, and a martial artist. The title character used a signature kick-the Outside Crescent Kick- that was often nicknamed after the character among martial artists once this movie got around. Studios kept disassociating themselves from this movie. American International Pictures started with it, then pulled out. Fox finished the film but refused to distribute it. Warner Brothers distributed it, but refused to promote it and book it into theaters. The principal actor had to do that-after which, the film was actually a success if not a smash.
  9. "So now you'd better stop, and rebuild all your ruins. For peace and trust can win the day, despite of all your losing."
  10. "To be accused multiple times on here of being a troll or making 2 accounts to troll is very ridiculous and unwelcoming for new members. Why do former the way members feel so special that I would personally waste my time to troll." Nobody mentioned trolling outside of the context of this Tim, which is why we mentioned him by name. Nobody accused you of trolling in any capacity. There's a marked difference between disagreeing or being honestly mistaken (at worst, how we think of you so far) and trolling (the Tim guy.) "Seems like everyone on here is paranoid from their experience with the way and take it out on new members. No I am not a troll and no I don't have multiple accounts on here to troll former damaged the way members. So drop the paranoia." Dropping the paranoia is good. You go first. :) After all, we talked about someone else (by name) and you got offended about how we referred to you when we did... " Instead some here hold hate in their heart for vp wierwille and for others from the way like john schoenheit who btw as rocky state has a good heart and good intentions. What more could one ask from someone than to have a good heart with good intentions unlike wierwille." I think we all agree that js MEANS WELL. What more can I ask for than good intentions? How about good conduct? If one means well and ends up hurting others, that's not good enough for me. If a man claims to teach about God and spreads content with easy-to-correct mistakes, I expect him to stop and improve. Just because he's not a sexual predator like vpw doesn't mean he's admirable. BTW, I think T-Bone did a good job of answering, so I'm going to quote him also. ======================================================== ILSC: Whether you agree or disagree with schoenheits work the fact is unless you can prove he is wrong then its no different than any other teacher out there, T-Bone: Some of Schoenheit’s work does have issues (stuff that is wrong) – you can read about it in the doctrinal forum; on that thread I pointed out how they deliberately deviated from the Greek text of John 1 STF's REV in doctrinal forum T-Bone: apparently Schoenheit and company think they are free to ignore the rules of grammar, syntax, etc. of biblical Greek so that they can craft a translation that supports their theology. wierwille did that too in his work – you can read about that in Undertow, the author who goes by Penworks when she posts here on Grease Spot was in TWI’s research department and had witnessed first hand the pressure wierwille put on them to twist and re-define words of the biblical Greek to agree with what he taught. Undertow ILSC: who we all have to make a decision to listen to or just follow no one and become an atheist which it seems a lot of ex-way members have become because of one evil person wierwille? T-Bone: You seem to be stuck in an all-or-nothing frame of mind. Where in the Bible does it say a Christian has to listen to or follow someone or else they become an atheist? Seriously, other than Jesus Christ, of course – can you suggest there’s someone else I should listen to and follow? ILSC: makes no sense to lose your faith because of one bad apple. T-Bone: again that's all-or-nothing thinking; I have not lost my faith; is wasn't until after I left TWI that I started to read and understand the simple message of the Bible without looking through wierwille's twisted doctrinal "reading glasses". It's a dangerous thing when a supposedly "christian" organization / followers become so enamored with their leader they put everything he says on par with the Holy Bible, or that the leader becomes the star of the show...that the leader becomes the gateway to a "deeper" understanding of the Scriptures....the leader becomes the head of the church - yikes! ILSC: Lets not forget wierwille was human and some of you here seem to have thought he was more than human perhaps because of his stories of it snowing in a hot month and state or because he healed an indian mans lame arm or because of his charisma. One fraud does not make what hes representing(the bible) a fraud at all. T-Bone: I doubt if you can find any indication that folks on Grease Spot thought wierwille was more than human; however, you will find stories by lots of folks (myself included) who thought he was an honest human being. BUT not only was he a fraud (plagiarizing the works of others, fabricating stories of miraculous feats, as well as being misleading in his credentials) but among other great acts of pretense - he deliberately deceived followers into thinking that his twisted doctrine – the things that he taught – and the Bible – were one and the same! wierwille was really into fraudulent misrepresentation – read all about it in Matthew 7. wierwille was a fraud and his work is fraudulent ! nothing worth holding onto. If you're a Christian and want something to hold onto - something you can put your faith in...try Jesus Christ. love and peace T-Bone
  11. I said *I* wouldn't mind, I said nothing about anyone else minding....
  12. AFAIK, this actor did not appear on either show.
  13. He sounds a great deal like the last child of one that passed through here, the one that later claimed to be his own Dad posting here to support his own posts, sockpuppet style. The "making up stuff" part's pretty obvious in spots. Remember how vpw claimed he "confronted" the church elders about money after they gave the newly-minted preacher ONE RULE and he made a policy of doing the exact opposite of what it was? Then he claimed they just went away after he spoke and he never had any consequences? Remember that pile of horse manure vpw peddled in "TW:LiL"? It's almost the same as the new claim of confronting people who just rolled over and took it with no consequences. Anyone who'd buy that one has never MET the people he's ALLEGEDLY confronted on MANY OCCASIONS.

  16. A little accidental humor, but I wouldn't mind wrestling Marisa Tomei in the bedroom. I'd never heard there was a movie with that last name, however. (Reminds me of the Monty Python scene about what to tax to raise revenue for Great Britain. "I would tax the nude woman in my bed. No, not 'tax', what is the word? Oh, yes- 'welcome.' " )
  17. I think we might have had it at Linus Larabee. It certainly rang a bell. Now it's obvious this is Harrison Ford.
  18. Exactly. He faked that "sincerity" could mean that you were faking-that is, that a "sincere" person could be FEIGNING sincerity and it counts as "sincere." He taught that all around. In real life, sincerity IS no guarantee of truth, but the sincere person at least THINKS what they hold forth is true. They may be honestly MISTAKEN, but there is no attempt to con, to fool, to defraud. vpw held to the opposite, that one attempting to defraud MUST be "sincere." Benny Hill has made jokes on this subject, but vpw was serious. "The most important thing is sincerity. After you can fake that, you've got it made." -Benny Hill. "Always be sincere-even if you don't mean it. I would never knowingly tell a lie-unless it was absolutely convenient."- Benny Hill.
  19. By his own standards, vpw was certainly SINCERE. Then again, he was quite negative about sincerity. "After all, the guy who tries to sell you the toothbrush with one bristle on it, he's got to be sincere!" "Sincerity is no guarantee for truth!" According to vpw, sincerity has neither a relation to truth, nor to reality. Naturally, vpw was WRONG about that. The 2 big collegiate dictionaries in English in the US are the Merriam-Webster and the American Heritage. Their online versions have definitions of "sincere", and they're very different from what vpw said it meant. ======================================= https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/sincere a : free of dissimulation : honest a sincere interestb : free from adulteration : pure a sincere doctrine sincere wine 2 : marked by genuineness : true https://ahdictionary.com/word/search.html?q=sincere 1. Not feigned or affected; genuine: sincere indignation. 2. Being without hypocrisy or pretense; true: a sincere friend. 3. Archaic Pure; unadulterated. ================================ If one takes the homiletician as some sort of English expert (Why? His degree was in homiletics), then there's a contradiction. The experts say one thing, he says another. The obvious conclusion is that he was wrong-but his definition was definitely self-serving. It made it sound as if one could be "sincere" during dissimulation, while feigning it, while in pretense, with hypocrisy. That's the opposite of what it actually means. Then again, does this surprise anyone at this point?
  20. "Hold it! You'd never last five minutes in a New York subway!" *WHAM* *WHAM* "Now, THAT's how it's done!" You go find a doctor. Get me Dr. Kildare. Get me Dr. Livingston. Get me Dr. Frankenstein. Just get me a doctor!" "I'm Nikolas Van Helsing, professor of proctology and other related tendencies. A graduate of the University of Rangoon. And assorted night classes at the Knoxville Tennessee school of faith healing." "You may be a little over-qualified for this job." "I'm sure that doctor's a very sweet man, basically." "Oh, thank you." "But don't you EVER tell me where you found him. EVER."
