JS>On 04/16/09, Jeff Snyder quoted TIM RICHARDSON: Re: A New Hero..


TR> I have. And I probably know more about it than you do.


TR> Yeah...right. Look....save that stuff for Sunday School. I ain't
TR> interested.



JS>Hey Tom, if you are going to make a snappy remark about me reading the
JS>U.S. Constitution, please don't take offense if I offer a snappy reply by
JS>suggesting that you read the Bible.


My name isn't `Tom'. And what you were trying to articulate for us would have
been more likely covered in the U.S. Constitution, rather than the bible.


JS>If you are going to dish it out, at
JS>least be willing to take it in as well.


You seem to be escalating to a conversational voice level that is uncalled
for. I begin to suspect your ability to converse at a normal tone of voice
leaves much to be desired.


`Dish it out'...........`take it'? Are you sure you know the echo you are in
here? This is not HolySmoke.....


JS>As far as your claim that you probably know more about the Bible than I
JS>do, well, maybe so, maybe not. I have been studying the Bible for some
JS>forty years,


I'm almost 68 years old. I was about 7 years old when I was first introduced
to bible study, protestant-type evangelism, etc etc.


I've had Christian-religious influence in my life since I could first
remember.


JS>and to be quite honest, there is still a lot that I do not
JS>fully grasp or fathom, and I am quite willing to admit this.


Thats good, because the gaps in your knowledge of biblical matters are quite
wide.


JS>I don't share my knowledge of the Bible to boast;


You shouldn't be `sharing them' at all in here. This echo is for political
type discussion. HolySmoke is down the hall on your left!


JS>I do it because most of my life has been dedicated to sharing Biblical
JS>truth with those who have an ear for it.


Thats nice.


JS>If you are not interested, so be it.


I'm not. Take it to the Lord in prayer.


JS>That is between you and God.


Exactly. Which makes me wonder why you brought it up to start with.


This nation is under the United States Constitution. The bible has no
authority over Americans once you step outside the door of your church into
the real world. We get more than enough religious fanaticism with the camel-
breaths who flew jumbo jets into skyscrapers, killing around 3000 Americans.


Put your bible aside and try reading a news paper once in a while.


Get a clue.
