Well, Come on down.

You have been chosen as a contestant, for you did draw sufficient attention by your own comments.

That t-shirt and hat (which you still are wearing?) proclaims Elsie was awarded a "dodge"? correct?

how so then?

First, there must have been an actual question, then further understanding as to how answers may best apply.

What did Elsie mean in #16, coming as that did in context including his long habit of mocking "Mormonism"?

The question here is was he speaking tongue-in-cheek, in 'Mormon Dude', put-on persona? I will suggest that he was, which serves to render your own comments to him indicating to me that you likely did not understand what he meant, for he was not himself declaring a position, expressing that to be in total covered by the scripture passage he referenced.

Which is how the Ford turned into a Chevy. You won that only slightly mis-used and abused 'new car', fair and square.

Congratulations.

But don't forget, one must pay the taxes before such can be registered and driven away from the t.v. show lot.

Are you going to make this same comment to the non-Catholic women on these threads?

That does not follow, for unless they themselves made the same comments in the same context(s) including what can be seen spoken of in #25.

Consider that one carefully.

Questions?

Whatever makes you think I posed any questions which I sought answer for from you?

Nevermind...that's another one of those rhetorical sort of "questions" which I do tell you truly, I am not interested in the very least in much any answer which you may provide for that one.

Enjoy the new-old confused badges car. Or don't pay the tax and walk away from it.

It just flew over yur' head anyway, and out the window already -- too late I do think you missed it.

It could have been a helicopter, if one would have just taken-hold lightly of the three-axis control, twisted on a bit of "throttle", lifting the collective, putting one foot lightly pressing on the proper rudder pedal -- you could have truly flown, demonstrating to all to be a sky-pilot in reality instead of petulant theoretical schoolboy/professor.

listen I am really busy with another matter if you have something of significance/ importance to say let me know.

I've already told you more than once, where things here went wrong, even breaking it down, providing a couple of links to other comments, in way of sketched outline of map to make things easier to find.

All the rest of the technicalities, and the time spent in your own efforts explaining those, was all but wasted in misguided effort, even though some of the technical specifications were correct enough, and can indeed be found in the manual.

I have copies of that manual myself.

But as to you very much not understanding Elsie (as far as I can tell), and which my first note to you was all about, then responding as if you had all along properly understood him and my own words to you as 'nothing' --- in the future do less of that, and the "really busy" may not bite down so hard.

Is English your first language?

[Elsie]

So; the NUNs can be married if THEY wish; too?

[Elsie]

Because I believe that I know more about Catholicism than some men.

And I believe I have more cats than 'some' veterenarians.

[Elsie]

Silent Nuns.

What a concept!

BEcause YOUR time is so, SO! precious...

What model year is my Chrysler?

[BlueDragon]

Is English your first language?

Well, harrumph. Are we now to the personal questions?

As you requested--- if I had any questions to ask, to put those in five lines or less, then I ask you to ask yourself these;

1) are you an illegitimate child

2) are you, or are you not one of those whom repeatedly killed Kenny

"

3) what grounds would I have for believing any answers which you may supply to the above questions -- but which I am not in the least seeking from you requesting reply -- just ask yourself instead, this third question, most of all.

[BlueDragon]

I said I may know more about Catholicism....that’s it.

That is "it"?

Would it be fair to say that this assessment of yours as to extent of your own knowledge, is chiefly your own assessment?

Being that there is a great deal of material possibly including in "Catholicism", with many various things ancillary to and also tangent to "Catholicism", with these additional conditions of relation to the subject themselves, at times and places being themselves subject to some amount of discussion and disagreement within Catholicism itself, then by what authority other than your own opinion of your own level of expertise do you tell others much of ANYTHING in regards to Catholicism?

Have you been appointed spokesperson for this organization?

You "may know" more...about "Catholicism"(?), you say and/or say "you believe" that you know more than "some".

So tell me, would those whom 'may know', or as you did previously also say of your own self, "believe" that they knew more [than some others] of Christianity --- would not those persons have every right in the world to "teach" people, including 'Catholics' about what they knew or believed they knew about Christianity?

If not -- then why not?

I ask this question, for more than a few times I have witnessed you ask others to the effect "who they thought they were", or "what gave them authority", etc., to "tell Catholics" about "Catholicism" (which religion as it were, should not to be entirely confused with Christianity for reason there is overlap in *some* areas).

I have noticed too yourself often speaking about what those other than [Roman] Catholics are alleged to believe or not -- that put in your own words, with those words presented as if they were actually truth.

By what authority do you speak? Is there anything whatsoever beyond your own opinions?

If not in actuality, then again;

Are some special flowers more equal than others?

And now

Do some of these more special flowers have born-in capability for playing "victim card" which others lack?

Next question, which you here put to another, himself a man as it were;

Why don’t you believe Christ and follow him?

Since you did not much explain what it is which you meant -- we must assume you "believed" that person (a man) to "not believe in Christ", since you asked him why he did not, then it also begs question as to just who "you" think this Christ is, and which direction He may be moving in or towards, if a person is follow this Christ.

In preface of your own statement to this man, whom it does seem you believe in some mysterious unexplained fashion "does not believe" with your question being also two-part in asking him "why" he presumably does not, I will ask also what in the world would be so LOL funny about that (if it were indeed true this man was not "believing in and following Christ") unless it be laughingly humorous for some small devil, laughing at yet one more whom they may prey upon?

Another gentler possibility, is this man I speak of, may be following Christ well enough to suit (or please) Christ, even if appearing for whichever reason not doing so well enough to suit your own self and your own assessments of what in your own opinions following Him would entail.

“Because I believe that I know more about Catholicism than some men.”

What do you know about being Christian?

[Salvation]

Catholics are Christians. In fact, they were the first Christians.

[verga]

I will pray for you.
