-> I made *one* factual post in reply to one of Jeff Snyder's
-> non-factual posts in his private echo (EDGE Online), for
-> which he went ballistic and threw me out ("I urge you to
-> leave this echo immediately -- never to return -- before
-> I am forced to remove you"). 

The same happened to me... :-)




 It took him about five screens
-> of his rules interspersed with diatribes (but no quotes or
-> refutation of anything I'd said)

Won't. Not into discussing, he's into ripostings his --what?--'lectures'
with not a whiff of biblical knowledge gleaned since...about 1850, I
think...
Biblical archeology, as well as linguistic knowledge and discovery of many
many ancient documents have made this a golden age for theology --
Science advanced in 2000 years...
The theology of that age has gone WAY past it's sell before date.  
Tryin'to get a discussion gon' in BIBLE STUDY...
It's a hell of a book...
(JS bragged that he's studied the bible for 40 years...I told him I got him
by 20years...got 'im pissed off...
:-)
(...uh...that was me braggin'...)
(I'm as heretical as you are cynical  :-)

Once you get old enough it doesn't make make sense to 'worry about
tomorrow' 
hell, as long as tomorrow is provided for...it optimismville! :-)

Regards...

 
-> Note that in the past several months Snyder has been the only
-> person posting in that echo - except, of course, for the one
-> post I made.

I did note that, and stopped to read your post and his reply.
