I've always wondered, and still do, why a religion that preaches "love thy neighbor" can manage to divide itself so many ways. I actually have my own hypotheses and they amount to just what you said, Roy: "small things".

Two more lines: Oh my my, oh hell yes Honey put on that party dress

Even scarier, there are still lots of people (at least one, anyway) who "understand" it.

Why does this thread keep getting bumped?

A friend of mine on the accuracy and validity of the PFAL class: "all the wrong in that class does not outweigh all the good." And, from the book Receiving the Holy Spirit Today by Victor Paul Wierwille: "Faith (believing) is your operation of the God-given ability to believe for the impossible to come to pass at your command as a son of God, by use of the information you have received from Him by revelation." Huh?

I saw Sling Blade, I just don't remember any lines from it.

Hendrix - If 6 Was 9 (I messed up -- I answered without thinking.)

Note to whoever listens to this song: Turn the volume up as loud as you possibly can! The solo in the middle of the song used to be the sonic equivalent of Eddie Van Halen's for a younger generation of guitarists.(And, no, I'm not saying that Van Halen is anywhere near the guitarist that Jimmy Page was.) Zep - Thank You

The most disturbing part of that Facebook post were the inane and hateful comments. If those were Christians talking then maybe they should read their bibles: "Do not mistreat an alien or oppress him, for you were aliens in Egypt." Exodus 22:21 I don't see any figures of speech in that verse.

The thing I like about William Shatner is that he's a parody of himself and, not only does he know it, he capitalizes on it, commercially. Back to the game...I'll repeat my earlier clue: "Some people cry and some people die by the wicked ways of love" Next line: "But I'll just keep on rollin' along with the grace of the Lord above"

I like that song.

Awesome. (They probably made the least amount of money of everybody down the line for their performance.)

Well, adultery isn't something that my friend either learned or internalized at TWI. In fact she was against it. If she had a more liberal attitude towards adultery than she does -- well, let's just say I'd be a happier guy right now. (More sinful and bound for gravedom, perhaps but yeah, happier.) edited for clarity

Cool version. I imagine it's closer to the original than the Tokens' verison.

Ha ha! That's a good one.

I just realized I went twice in a row. (But I won twice in a row, so it should be okay, right?)

Songs remembered from just one word: A-Wimoweh

More often than not, when I'm reading Bullinger I feel like I'm getting more of a lesson on Greek, Hebrew, linguistics or numerology than a lesson on the bible itself. I've said this before: as intelligent and knowledgeable as Bullinger is, I can't place a lot of credibility in someone who squeezes out "six denials" and "four crucified." Also, I find it hard to believe that God would not have foreseen that most humans are unwilling or incapable of approaching scripture as if it were some ancient puzzle. No, I think God made the stories simple enough so that the common man would be able to understand the message. Incidentally (and this concerns the reason you started this thread), it's becoming aparent to me that many priests, ministers and rabbis do not read the creation story literally. Which is kind of a load off my chest because, reading other, more conservative bible forums, I was getting the impression that I was headed for the lake of fire if I didn't believe that Noah saved every species of animal on earth. :)

I love Sarah Silverman but I couldn't vote because it wanted me to also vote on the Sugar Shack deal, which I'm not familar with.

Pretty interesting there, guys and gals. I think the places my friend lived were pretty tight ships, seeing how she didn't smoke for 20+ years. I always figured that if I was born again, I wouldn't need to take any kind of drugs anymore. @ Sunesis: If the new corps coordinator had disapproved of the scene he stumbled upon, could he or would he have gotten you kicked out? I imagine it would have depended on exactly who he reported it to.

Alice Cooper - I'm Eighteen If I knew how to do those sound clippies, I'd have lots of fun. For now, I'll have to stick to text: "Some people cry and some people die by the wicked ways of love"

Why not? (just kidding, bad joke) :)
