Nope. But then we can't put toothpaste back in the tube either. :)

Not even close to what you were thinking of, maybe, but right on as the Al Green song goes. :)

All the changes you that you put me through...(great lyrics) "Take Me to the River".

Nice, George. That was a hard one. You go.

I used her, she used me but neither one cared

Very true. And it took me years of listening to that song before I recognized it.

This is just a great song...it is a ballad in the traditional sense, but with a fearsome tex-mex riff. Great chorus, too.

Doors - Touch Me

Short segments? I don't think so. They are long and boring (sorry). Call this Marketing 101: your readers are pulling away. Less people reading means less discussion. But do it any way you wanna. Maybe others here are enjoying your "short" posts.

+1 James, why don't you post a link or attach a thumbnail document and save the real estate on the actual post for your comments?

Is that a reference to Luke or Jeremiah? Either way, you're right, it's cold as ice.

Well, I'm no bible scholar but... I thought Jesus was using hyperbole to demonstrate that one must give up everything in order to be his disciple. Jesus said on more than one occasion to love your neighbor. And the OT says you must "honor your father and your mother." So clearly, Jesus doesn't want everyone to hate their families. That's my take, anyway.

I have known about TWI for over 25 years, but I never thought of it as a "cult" until last fall when I stumbled onto this forum. It's still hard for me to get used to the idea that it is, indeed, a cult. Of course, I was never in it.

Grr...from what I've been reading here I'm actually beginning to develop a hatred for this wrewill guy. I never really had an emotion either way. But when you demonstrate yourself to be a hateful bastard, then yeah, I can hate you back.

so Human, it's your turn

I didn't realize the Devil Rays dropped the "devil". Tampa Bay "Rays" just doesn't have the same ring to it.

Great song!

WW, I guess you were away for a few days (I was about to give it away). Your turn.

I figured somewhere in FL, anyway. I think it's your avatar that made me think that. P.S. Interesting discussion in that link on your "About Me" page. Are you Confutatis?

Maybe you had to be "spiritually advanced" to understand?

It seems to me that if the bible were truly "inerrant", God could have made it so that these differences over word usage, translation and interpretation didn't arise. And I think He could have made it so that you didn't have to be as intelligent as either Gen-2, or Mark to understand it. I think He could have made it so that there wasn't any doubt. At the very least, He could have offered us some updates. It's been about 2,000 years. Those are my thoughts, anyway.

All this time I thought you did.

Nobody ever seems to hang out on internet forums forever. Even the great ones eventually leave. I know you've had a rough road but you gotta lotta heart, man. Take care, and come back soon.

yes
