HEY BUDDY. I LOVE YOU DEARLY AND WE'RE ON THE SAME TEAM.

HOWEVER, gotta share the same English lesson for the Rel Forum with you, too.

Armageddon was slapped obliquely within the rules.

I agree that some seem to get away with a lot more than others of us but that's OK. They are more pathetic to begin with. I don't mind bearing a 'handicap,' that much. Besides, perhaps there's a percentage subtracted for my general level of cussedness and fierceness of style and personality . . . or because some . . . limited perception . . . folks seem to LOVE to hate me or whatever the rumors are.

Anyway--here's the English lesson to keep in mind:

Just remember this was written FOR NAYSAYERS . . . not BUDDIES. LOL

It appears that a major proportion of the naysayers need some ENGLISH REFRESHER LESSONS:

“personal”

IS NOT REALLY that difficult a concept.

It comes from the word “person.”

A “PERSON” is

DIFFERENT from

1. A GROUP
2. THEY
3. Y’ALL
4. THEM
5. SOME OF THEM
6. CADRE
7. A COLLECTION OF
8. A CLIQUE
9. A CLUSTER
10. ALL Y'ALL
11. A PLATOON
12. A FLOP-HOUSE FULL
13. A CELL (GROUP)
14. A GANG [not sure why the fascination with mental gang-banging. Would call it intellectual gang-banging but it never rises that high].
15. A FLOCK.

WHICH IS DIFFERENT FROM [i.e. NOT the SAME as]:

A “PERSON” IS directly associated with

1. YOU
2. HE
3. SHE

I realize that the more chronic naysayers tend to have a dreadfully difficult time distinguishing between

DIFFERENT

VS

SAME

but it does make it a lot easier when some of them try.

AND, I realize that the more chronic naysayers have this THING about

OBSESSIVE, ADDICTIVE EXTRAPOLATING, ASSUMING, INFERRING . . .

however, as I understand things . . .

EXTRAPOLATING, ASSUMING, INFERRING

[accurately or not]

PERSONAL “INSULT” DOES NOT COUNT.

The rules have to do with plainly written PERSONAL insult.

We will return screens to regularly scheduled programming after the following freebie additional refresher lesson:

This English Comprehension lesson has concluded.

DISTINCTIONS REALLY ARE IMPORTANT.

DISTINGUISHING

THE DIFFERENCE

BETWEEN

THE CHURCH AGE

VS THE MILLENNIAL AGE

IS IMPORTANT IN SCRIPTURE. It could rationally be considered important in life.

DISTINGUISHING

THE DIFFERENCE

BETWEEN

AN INDIVIDUAL

VS

A GROUP

IS IMPORTANT.

DISTINGUISHING

THE DIFFERENCE

BETWEEN

calling even a group idiotic vs a belief, perspective, idea, doctrine idiotic

IS IMPORTANT.

I’m beginning to wonder if it’s something in the holy water that REPLACEMENTARIAN, preterist, amil’s might drink that renders them incapable of making important distinctions.

Of course, the awake, aware and alert need no such lessons and the otherwise will not heed them but . . . just for the record, there they are! LOL.

Ha! Excellent and concise. I wish that was part of the invisible FR FAQ somewhere. Thanks bro!


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.
