Well, unless pineapple is sausage with sugar added, putting pineapple on a pizza negates said pizza from any longer being a pizza. It may look like a pizza, but that pineapple on it... it sorta changes the rules. Long hair, sweet face, feminine figure... and what have we here? The Crying Game? Well, I don't care what features that character had in common with women: he wasn't a woman, by virtue of the presence of... well, you know. Same thing with pineapples on pizza. It's the Crying Game. I'm telling you.

Nothing secretive about it. I said I was going to do this before you left. And you are one of the "you know who you are" in the opening post.

Not quite. It's like saying "arsenic free water."

Ketchup and tomato sauce are NOT the same thing. Ask any four year old.

Cheetos. Six pack of Jolt. And Pineapple-free pizza. And I ask myself: Self? (Yes?) What would the world be like if ExWay Daryl were straight? Hmmmm...... ~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If ExWayDaryl were straight... He and Raf would have gotten into a fight at the ! wedding over a certain nurse. No one would get Raf's showtune references. His pictures of Jen-o would be ... (remainder of this item deleted by former FCC Chairman Michael Powell). Leather sales in Chicago would drop by 43%. Village People CD sales in Chicago would drop by 73%. He'd attend the Radio City Christmas Spectacular every year to see the Rockettes' legs instead of their outfits. That annual parade in Chicago... well, it JUST wouldn't be the same. He'd wear a Fuschia handkerchief: code for, "I'm straight. Stop looking at my behind!" In the Navy, you can sail the seven seas, in the Navy... (thanks to you know who you are for the assist).

I respectfully accept your respectful disagreement. But I don't see not one hint of a self-serving attitude in Jerry Barrax. Not even a little. Not a hint. Nothing. Zip. He's got no followers. He's got no church. He's got no control over anyone. He just sincerely thinks that's what the Bible teaches. I don't assign the same motives to VF as some others here do, but that's me. I also haven't dealt with him since he made this doctrinal change.

I MIGHT be able to come by that weekend. But I'd get there late. And I'd leave the next day.

I'll tell you what really scares me: This thread (as of right now) has NOT been moved to Just Plain Silly. Which means our proprietor must think there's some merit to me taking over the role of Satan. Is Pawtucket really... What the Hay?

Latino Review???

Do you put tomato sauce on a hot dog? Goodness, I thought this thread was about ME being the devil, yet all of you are introducing these Satanic food combinations. Sheesh.

I'm feeling lucky, punk. Dirty Harry "Slick shoes! Slick shoes!"

Spelling does not count. And, to the best of your ability on this board, you properly spelled Les Miserables. Oh, and KUDOS for picking that movie. :)--> Edward Scissorhands Johnny Depp Sleepy Hollow

That, I don't know. My stand has always been, believe that I'm right, behave as if they are right. :)-->

Oh you sad, sad man. Rum and Coke is a masterpiece! Pineapples go with pizza like radio shows go with mimes.

Ok. I happen to agree with you. But I still don't see anything self-serving about the stand they're taking. If anything, I'll be it cost them followers.

Of course you can! It's just that the moment you do, it ceases being a pizza.

Heh heh heh.

Self serving, man made, slavery... ? You don't think they resisted this conclusion just as strongly as you do now? These people were taught just as we were. But they studied and came to an opposite conclusion, and they're entitled to do so. Why do you think it happened? Do you think they looked at three scriptures and said "whoops! changed my mind"? I respect that it took a ton of soul-searching for them to go back on a popular doctrine. By the way, VF teaches that "born again" is a reference to the resurrection, not to what we have long referred to as the "new birth." Jesus talked about being "born again" with Nicodemus. He expected Nicodemus to know what it was. That means whatever being "born again" means, it's not a part of some future "mystery" that Nicodemus could not be expected to know. Prove all things. Hold fast to that which is good.

I mean, really, how hard was that?

Please move to silly... I sit before a bowl of Cheetos and a six pack of Jolt Cola with one question on my mind... What would the world be like if Steve! were God? ~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~ If Steve! were God.... Cindy! would be the Virgin Mary. (*) would replace the sign of the cross. Instead of saying "in the name of ..." He! would want our prayers to end, "Praise be Your! Name." Everyone would be required to drink an entire bottle of wine at communion services. And a pound cake. Instead of a Divine Son surrounded by 12 apostles, He! would approve a holy terror surrounded by 12 Chicago area nurses. (A guy can dream, after all). He! would tell a preacher from Ohio that He! was going to teach him the Word as it has not been known since the first century. Then He! would lean over and tell him the Word. And the Word He! would tell him is... Keep it in your pants, you pervert. Not in My! Name!!!

I think others have come to that conclusion, though not nearly as politely.

From their statement of beliefs:

Knock out a few of those question marks, willya????????????? :)--> Christian Biblical Counsel (V Finnegan) now teaches that salvation is for those who make a lifetime commitment to Christ. I don't know about "how many sins does it take to get to the Gehenna center of a Tootsie Pop," but the point is that they no longer believe the new birth is the incorruptible seed that TWI taught it was. They believe the new birth is synonymous with the resurrection. I don't think they refer to themselves as "born again" anymore. new birth = resurrection incorruptible seed = the Word of God
