Oh wait a minute. scripture isn't that important, I forgot.

Having not followed the conversation I can tell what kind of person you are talking to with that statement. :-)

I dont' think I like this new format. When this thread is 10,000 posts long how in the world do you quickly get to post number 5221?

You can also tell what kind of person is making such a statement.

Select "New Style" from the choices at the bottom of the screen. Then select "settings" from the bottom of the new style screen. It lets you select to have the posts broken up by 20, 50, 100, etc. posts per page.

Then you don't have to scroll through all thousands of posts.

Go to the box in your browser that shows the URL. It will read something like:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/fr/548277/posts?q=1&&page=581

Delete the 581 at the end and replace it with:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/fr/548277/posts?page=586#586

This will take you to that exact reply #. If you have your preferences set for 20 replies per page, you could also write it as:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/fr/548277/posts?page=581

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/fr/548277/posts?page=5221

That will take you to the top of the page that has that reply # and the next 20 replies. (Obviously you would enter numbers in multiples of 20. If you have your preferences set for 50, then use multiples of 50).
