Therein lies the flaw. Yes, either it was by revelation or it wasn't- and if it wasn't, then this is NOT special and unique, and it is only special and unique if it WAS by revelation. Therefore, we investigate carefully to see if it was by revelation or not. And looking to see if there were "benefits" and considering that the standard is a SMOKESCREEN. vpw himself pointed out that people claim a benefit from sitting on a therapist's couch. Christians all over the world claim benefits in their groups, and supposedly this is greatly superior to ALL of theirs. HIndus, Jews, Muslims, and so on similarly claim benefits of their groups, and this is supposedly greatly superior to ALL of theirs. How do we find out if this was by revelation or not, with some degree of authority? We examine the claimed specifics concerning the revelation. Mike's never actually done that. His process would hold up as "genuine" any group from which one would claim a benefit- and there are satanists who would claim they benefit from their group. So, we examine the specifics. What would we find? The same things we found when some of us already did this and discussed it. http://www.greasespotcafe.com/ipb/topic/24592-the-failed-1942-promise/ IF this failed a reasonable test for revelation, it could not be considered revelation. SINCE it failed SEVERAL reasonable tests for revelation, if could NOT be considered revelation. If it could not REASONABLY be considered revelation, then Mike should find out what the rest of us can teach him and why we're prospering and serving God while he's claiming we're not. Naturally, he's under no compulsion to do so, and I personally don't see it happening this side of the grave. However, I can be surprised, and I also can't rule out a miracle.

I'm hoping you guys come up with the name soon. I mean, you know music. I'm not dealing with a couple of cavemen here...

"If my answers frighten you then you should cease asking scary questions." "Want some bacon?" "No man, I don't eat pork." "Are you Jewish?" "Nah, I ain't Jewish, I just don't dig on swine, that's all." "Why not?" "Pigs are filthy animals. I don't eat filthy animals." "Bacon tastes gooood. Pork chops taste gooood.""

"You know I love you, I always will. My mind's made up by the way that I feel. There's no beginning, there'll be no end. 'Cause on my love you can depend." "It's written on the wind, it's everywhere I go So if you really love me, come on and let it snow show." "I see your face before me as I lay on my bed I kinda get to thinking, of all the things you said You gave your promise to me, and I gave mine to you I need someone beside me in everything I do."

Well, if it's a Brit we'd want to make fun of,. how about King George III, reigning British monarch during the US American Revolution?
-
*looks it up* Ok, Jon Gries was Lazlo Hollyfeld (the genius from a decade ago), Gabriel Jarret was Mitch Taylor (the new kid, 'Mighty Mouse"), Michelle Meyrink was Jordan Cochran (the hyperkinetic chick who makes stuff), Robert Prescott was KENT (the schmuck-student who sucked up to Prof Hathaway), Patti DÁrbanville was Shelly Nugil (she REALLY liked geeks), Val Atherton was Dr Hathaway (the actual villain that Kent drew attention away from) and Kilmer played Chris Knight, the graduating genius who learned to balance his life and wanted to teach Mitch how before Mitch turned into Lazlo Hollyfeld.) Amazing how well I remember the movie, but can't name virtually the entire cast.
-
Yeah, that would have given it away. I was confusing Robert Preston with Robert Prescott. Once I realized that, and saw Atherton and Kilmer, my first guess would have been "Real Genius." (Atherton was in that and "Ghostbusters." For a short moment, he was the go-to man if Hollywood wanted someone educated and incidental who should be punched.)

Ok, we know who William Atherton is, we know who Robert Prescott is. We don't have a movie with them in common-that we are aware of. (2 movies for WA, 3 for RP).
-
Ha! Finally remembered an actual actress in it! Faye Dunaway the Thomas Crown Affair (new version) Pierce Brosnan
-
Ok, we just put our heads together. We figured this is probably: a British role, a historical role (otherwise, why on "Drunk HISTORY"?), a role famous enough to be nominated for an Oscar, let alone win (to say nothing of attracting some of these people.) Considering all that, and trying to picture TIMOTHY SPALL making the list means that we think we should start with RICHARD III.
-
It's been covered, but I'm pretty sure John Ford Coley was not in any band that's been known to have covered it, and was not in the original. (So, say, if he jammed in a club somewhere and did this, nobody knows but it's humanly possible.) I'll add more lyrics later.
-
The first post says this is for threads with "clues to a movie." Forgive me if I'm not at my best when the round isn't with "clues to a movie." I also hate looking anything up and will wait for some sort of follow-up clue since that actually allows me to play rather than look up.
-
I know William Atherton from 2 movies, but I can't tell if this is either movie, yet.
-
It could be, and is.

Was this "Brokeback Mountain?"

Wild guess..."No Country For Old Men"???

Played this song for Mrs Wolf to overhear earlier, so blame her for inspiring this round.... ;) "You know I love you, I always will. My mind's made up by the way that I feel. There's no beginning, there'll be no end. 'Cause on my love you can depend."
-
I keep forgetting to run this past Mrs Wolf, but I mentioned one role was played by both Timothy Spall and Gary Oldman and that didn't spark a memory. Let me run this list of Brits past her and see what she says.

Why can't corps retire from twi.......with dignity?
WordWolf replied to skyrider's topic in About The Way
Trick question. If you're asking if they need to CONTINUE to pay "emeritus corps" then it's a trick question because they would have to START paying them first. If you want to know if they meant "retire and START getting paid", I think that isn't the direction of the question. The question is meant as "Why can't the corps retire from being on twi's leash and continuously living at twi's beck and call. and instead just be normal retirees who might do something because they want to and volunteer and not because they're "volunteered" by twi?" -
I thought part of the reason for Emporia was so vpw could rope his son Don back into twi by offering the Education student an educational facility to administer. And it worked.

May Explain 'Salvation' of Non-Christians
WordWolf replied to GoldStar's topic in Doctrinal: Exploring the Bible
I'm not ignoring this thread. I'm refusing to reply until I can sit down and treat this subject the way it deserves, and not with something off-the-cuff. I'll get to that as soon as I can. -
