Not only does this NOT PROVE that heteros means "other when only two are involved," it actually helps disprove it. If heteros means "other when only two are involved," then "two other" is redundant. It would be like saying I bought a pair of two shoes. You go on to say that heteros is used to distinguish the kakourgai from the lestai, but why? Why distinguish between the kakourgai and the lestai when the lestai are not being mentioned at all in this gospel? Again, the use of heteros doesn't prove a single thing you're insisting it does.

Now I see what's been going on. Thanks everyone. So who's up? AH, here it is: did anyone get this yet? I'm stumped.

You're really confusing me, Digi, so let's clear the air. It's a game. It's all in fun. It's all good. I'm not pointing a finger at you, and I didn't even say it was cheating. I just said it's not a good idea. I even added a smiley. :) Just like that one. It's all good. It's all a game. Woohoo! Yippee! and all that. :)

"Ugly American" was a self-deprecating comment, meant to indicate that I don't get something a British person would get. "In and Out" was obscure. To get from a photo of Queen Elizabeth to ER? Can I get some Americans to chime in here? How many of you have EVER heard of ER as a reference to Queen Elizabeth? But hey, no one said this was an American board. Or game. :)

I'd start TWI II at the reading of POP. The entire mood changed. Instead of people leaving, entire movements were leaving. A TWI I attitude and POP were incompatible.

Family Tradition! Hank Williams Jr?
-
Yeah, it's generally a good idea NOT to do that. :) The other thing is to look for something SIMILAR to the word you're looking for, but not identical. Something that suggests what you're looking for. For example, when looking for the word "Bout," I searched for images related to "boxing match."
-
If that's the explanation, then I'm mistaken (ugly American!!!!)
-
I think that ER was WAYYYYYY too obscure.
-
Wait a minute: How did the pictures spell out "Buster." I mean, Bust is obvious, but ER?
-
I can't get past the first pic. :)
-
The first time, it was an old man and a yellow lab. Old+Yellow was easy. But I didn't answer it (for the reason that when I get these things too quickly, I sometimes want others to have fun). But then you changed it to the current two pics, and I had ZERO idea that it was the same movie. Yes, a very good debut.

The list at the bottom of GS sid it's No Member's birthday today! Happy Birthday, No Members!

Thanks. Cutepdf is the one I was looking for!
-
Funny, because that's what I guessed from the original clue, but then marypoppins changed it, and I was baffled. :)
-
Sorry I missed it alfakat. I'm not big on the birthday threads, but I'm trying to do better. So happy... belated? birthday!

WordWolf, The movie was Legal Eagles, starring Robert Redford, Debra Winger and Daryl Hannah.
-
Oh my! Is that right? (checking) Bullinger's writing never was very clear. (I used to joke that the easiest way to fall asleep is reading "How to Enjoy the Bible." WordWolf and I were going to write a follow-up: "How to Enjoy How to Enjoy the Bible").
-
Ah. So it comes from Bullinger, who used it to prove the same "four crucified" teaching for which Wierwille used it. Any other non-Bullinger sources?
-
On "the four crucified" and the gospel of John, Wierwille's point was that the word "one" (on either side one) was not in the text. On that he appears to have been correct, from the few interlinears I've seen.

So, here we go. Here's the list of hurricane/tropical storm names for 2006. You'll note that my name is on it. :) Alberto Beryl Chris Debby Ernesto Florence Gordon Helene Isaac Joyce Kirk Leslie Michael Nadine Oscar Patty Rafael Sandy Tony Valerie William

Mark, In fairness to VPW, I don't recall him mentioning the punctuation difference in the gospel of John. That was just me. The use of the five crosses pic always bugged me. After telling us not to rely on art to prove our points, TWI relies on art to prove Wierwille's point. Now we know the truth: the monument was never intended to be a representation of the crucifixion. It's not even one monument! Good catch. By the way, on the heteros v. allos issue: has anyone ever found any scholarship indicating heteros means only two involved while allos means more than two? I mean, aside from Wierwille? Genuine question. I'm just curious to know where he got the definition from.

Happy Birthday, Tom! And God Bless Texas!

I'm actually not sure where the singer is from. It's a song that had very little staying power. It was a huge hit while it was a hit, but since then you almost never hear it. It's from the 80s It's from a movie It's peppy Just give me a chance to let me show you how much...
