PFAL: An Unorthodox Translation
Raf replied to Tom Strange's topic in Doctrinal: Exploring the Bible
So did he just spend like 100 lines reviving this thread just to say he had nothing to say about the thread? Get back on topic. -
Oh my God. It's a countdown! Checkmate! Checkmate! Independence Day Here's a tough one... "Women will sleep with you if you write a book?" "Women will sleep with you if you write a bad book."

I wanted to applaud, but was too drained to do it. No one in my audience applauded (at least not audibly: I applauded silently). There were many, many tears. I shed a few, but "sobbing" would not be an accurate description for me.

I don't think there's one word that can capture it. I don't want to say "Go see this movie," although on quality alone it deserves it. If I were a movie reviewer, I'd say "go see this movie," because their job is to recommend well-made, well-acted films. I don't know if it brings closure or healings. It does make you enormously proud of the passengers of flight 93. But at the same time, the unmitigated hatred it brings out for the hijackers easily spills over to a hatred of Islam (particularly in one scene: let me know if you spot it). The more I think of it... Bring tissues. Confront your discomfort. Go see this movie.
-
Well, I saw it tonight, and I'm glad I did. It's gut-wrenching, powerful... You really want things to end differently, but you know, of course, that they won't. Still, I have a renewed appreciation for the passengers who rebelled. Nice job on the part of the director, the actors, and the re-enactors (men and women who played themselves).

It's not off topic. Those two posters were mentioned in the opening post on this thread. I'd have to do more reading of all his posts to answer the "profession" issue. I was under the impression that it was more than a mere interest. And if the reaction he gets here stops him from posting, then I suggest "surprise" is an appropriate word. But if you can come up with a better word for it, I won't quibble.

I wasn't complaining about the horse. I just didn't get it. Now I do. :)

Regarding the two posters who "know" LCM, one of them is some kind of cult researcher. I suggest that a cult researcher who is surprised at how former cult members might react to his words needs to reconsider his profession. Freud, if you're reading this, and if you're good at what you do, come back. Consider the audience and don't be surprised at the tone of some of the replies you get. It shouldn't surprise you. Don't let it turn you away.

Someone explain Mr. Smith goes to Washington, please. I guessed it (look at my post and you'll see). But I don't get the horse.
-
Well, I don't know about you distinguished gentlemen in this august body think, but I'd rather sit here and sound out the words to this pictionary for hours, days if I have to, before I can determine whether or not it's all right. Days, I tell ya. Mary! Mary! Don't you recognize me? I can't read the danged Oscar teleprompter!

You know, when it comes time to exterminate them, no one has any trouble identifying "Who is a Jew." Along comes WTH (which must stand for "What's The Holocaust?"), naysayer, skeptic, smear-spreader and HOLOCAUST DENIER, to say that not even Jews agree that Jews are Jews. WTH: You have no credibility on this. The evidence is there. The Jews who are Jews share genetics with the Jews who you say are not Jews, proving that Wierwille was wrong. Hitler had no problem identifying the Jews when he proposed, plotted and attempted their extermination. ANd he got close to or over 6 million of them, according to the evidence you don't even refute with any actual evidence of your own.

But the modern Jew is Semitic.

Is Part Two up yet?

Raf replied to Zixar's topic in About The Way
Actually, Oaks, I think the latter is a better definition of agnosticism (except I would add that it neither supports nor discounts the existence of God, according to the definition). Atheism would state that the evidence DOES support a belief in Nogod. (I like that. :)) The atheist belief is a conclusion, while the agnostic belief leaves the question open. -
I'd disqualify "Zeta" as being some way to get the "Zee" sound, primarily because it's not even a "Zee" sound. It's a "Zay" sound. I'm not nuts about the Saw Knife Red Engine, either. :)

Happy Birthday ILB! And WELCOME MR. PIPES. Welcome to Greasespot. Welcome to Freedom. Welcome to Fresh Air. And welcome to Greasespot Coffee: Better than Starbucks!

Oldies, lean real close to the monitor for this one: It was an intentional, systematic, planned, event by Hitler and Co.

Because a. it is not worthy of an intellectual response, and b. an intellectual response was provided and ignored. Let's be real, here: The Ashkenazi Jews for the most part share a genetic link with other Jews, proving the very common background ck claimed would not be found. Somewhere between five and six million Jews were killed during the Holocaust. Many were gassed. And it was a coordinated campaign to exterminate Jews. This is indisputable history, not some idea the Jews made up to gain sympathy from the world (fat lot of good that did them, anyway: much of the world still hates them). We've documented this, and anyone who cares to do the slightest research on this, real research, will see it because it is so well-documented. So the people who believe in documented history are now the "detractors" who "smear," according to WTH, and you demand OTHERS provide an intellectual reply? Here's an intellectual reply: If this thread were the only posts I'd ever seen from CK and WTH, I would be forced to conclude that they are among the stupidest people on the face of God's green earth.

I'd put it second. Oh, wait, "intellectual." You're right. :) I had no bad experiences during the time I would count myself among Geer's "followers," but the limited foreknowledge thing was my breaking point. Not because it's wrong and my view is right (although that is my belief) but because it was so easily refutable. The CES/STFI presentation is tougher to argue with because they have thought through the very verses WordWolf and I raised in objection to Geer's presentation. I disagree with STFI's conclusion, but their presentation is at least 50x better than Geer's. Still, I always thought of Geer as a good presenter and a decent teacher, if not a terribly exciting one. I didn't find out the bad stuff until Waydale/Greasespot.

Hey, Star Trek fans: note anything interesting in this pic?

The chapter is a highlight itself... I keep reading it just to prove to myself it was actually posted.

Lest What the Hey's "highlights"... hahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA! HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA! HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA! HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA! HA!HA!HA! Hah. Sigh. Where was I? Oh yes: for those interested in a refutation of the nonsense that appears in What the Hey's Greatest Hits list above: Click here to see the evidence that, yes, there were gas chambers and, yes, there was a concerted campaign to exterminate Jews and, yes, the figure six million is a pretty good estimate. I'm still at a loss for words over the actual post, but why stupidity should surprise me at this stage is probably the greater mystery.
