(What's a neural linguist? now THAT sounds fascinating! Sometime I'll tell you about my kid and sign language)

Taking all the probable--inferences--not even including the possible ones--just the probable ones--it's definitely there.

I guess I'm going to need you to come up with a significant portion of RC's who think that. Why? Because I read that, and I just don't see what you're saying in it. I don't think you'd find a RC on this list who would say that the only way we are to glorify the Trinity is through Mary and that we must glorify the Trinity through her.

So it's like I am not part of this sample of deluded people, and I don't know anyone who is, and yet I am to stop thinking what I think because somebody else, somewhere, whom no one has ever introduced to me, might think something different which is bad for them to think.

On that basis we should at least consider burning all the Bibles because of what "THOSE people" thought upon reading them, despite the fact that others have profited greatly from reading them. (Speaking of which, there is a JW thread against the Holy Trinity somewhere. I pinged Blogger to it.)

You can show me no ducks. I wasn't being artificial when I said that's not a duck. In fact it took me a minute to see what the fuss was about.

Long Boring Parable:

A teacher from London is sent to a missionary school up in the border country. First day of class, a group of "gormless" country boys comes into class sits down and looks at her stupidly and passively. To start the conversation she draws a sheep on the board -- and this is sheep country. She's proud of her drawing. it's detailed, from horns to rump, from saddle to hooves - a beautiful sheep!

She then asks the class, "Can anybody say what this is?" Sullen shifty looks at one another, silence.

"Nobody?" (She thinks, they just CAN'T be that stupid.") YOU then, James: What is that a picture of?

"Well, I don't rightly know, ma'am. Y'see, the body looks like Leicester or maybe a Cheviot, but the head is more like a Scottish Blackface, the hooves look like Romney hooves but the fleece is definitely Lincoln wool. So I can't say WHAT it is!

It may look like a duck to you ...

but my spirit within and Holy Spirit within will not be silent on this enormously horrid distraction at best and idolatry wholesale detracting wholesale from God Almighty and His pure and simple Gospel.

That sho' 'nuff will keep you from learning what we think, whether or not you agree with it..

Good meat in your msg dear bro. Going to have to get back to you.

BTW, I think you have more than sufficient access to my heart and mind to get most anything conveyed to me that you wish. I may not agree but I can at least understand and that probably above average.
