Is it don rickles flavor,or Jonathan winters?
When I can get my ducks in a row and have a few funny moments, it's a combination of George Carlin and Rodney Dangerfield. Some mish-mash of self-deprecating and a militant biting undertone.

As I never said that they weren't there's no reason to be asked this question.

Just as I quoted what Martin Luther said about James and then Whatshisname said I was calling Paul's epistles straw.

Apparently the scriptures aren't the only thing getting twisted here by some.
Ok,ok,now even I am getting suspicious.

I read you post backwards an it says some twisted scriptures apparently.....

And epistle paul called whatshisname and james said martin luther quoted.

and then "question reason never said I"

I find it suspicious a post could have such a dual holographic dimension.

Here's an example of twisting:

I said "some of y'all" and then you say "us ALL".

Watch out using such trigger words like "retarded". I was digitally spanked by someone for using the word "cripple" when they knew in fact that I am one myself. It's amazing the amount of time some folks have to do nothing but attack others, but here's the thing about that. I learned in psych class that most of the time people attack others for displaying the exact same behavior that they themselves have. It's transference of self loathing.

I okay with a bit of fun and joking, but implying that doing illegal drugs is okay is not cool or very Christlike.

The legality of using the aforementioned drug is determined by what state in which one resides.
Guess I should have said booze then since it's legal, right?

Please cut and past any scripture spoken by Jesus that supports the "salvation by faith alone" and then give more detail about what it is that one has faith in. I believe it would be having faith that the Gospels are true and that Jesus died to cover our sins and was resurrected. THAT is the gospel to me.

Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God's wrath remains on them.
(John 3:36)​

He said to take up your cross and follow him.

Guess what works a person does on their cross?
Just one. They die.
And in Him, we find life -- we know we will live with Him, because we have died with Him.
. . . A death that split the curtain of the old covenant in two, and destroyed the priesthood of the Levites, and reduced all the complexity and burden of trying to establish our own righteousness and be justified before God down to one simple act, the thing that that the thief who also carried his cross that day did: believe, and die.

Paul, by the Spirit, expounds for us what we believe.
Seeing that Christ said it was for our benefit that He left - because He would then send the Comforter, who would explain all these things - i'd say the things that His apostles opened up for us are more than just "
important."

But my fine dude, now that this Spirit is given to those who believe, we could have Isaiah alone and comprehend the gospel, as much as any human can at this point in time. i do agree on that respect, and from what you've said alone in this thread -- i don't care to go wading through others -- i don't see you rejecting Paul, though i do see a hint that you may not comprehend that the work of God is God working in you to bring you towards Himself, not you working towards Him ((i.e. that popular arminianism business)). Sometimes i believe it's necessary to understand that Christ said things to people still living under Moses, which have a new meaning for those who don't -- where commandments have become promises rather than frighteningly high measuring sticks.

Is that the case?
Here's a question that might illuminate that point: when He said "
be perfect" -- what does He mean? Is that a command to us like "do not hold a grudge," or is it said in the same way He said "let there be light" ? Is that a completely unreachable goal meant to always spur toward greater effort and desire, or the litmus test for entrance into the kingdom? What does this mean?


((How'd i do?))

I discovered Monty Python's Flying Circus as a preteen when Alabama Public TV ran reruns of the show in the 70's. Fell in love with them immediately and sought out their records. Bought them all and wore them out. Introduced my daughter to them when she was in junior high school and now she's doing the same with my granddaughter.

And don't worry about some folks here attacking me because "It's just a scratch!!". ;)


Just wondered did you ever discover the Goodies, it's a little similar to the
Monty Pythons but with themes like King Kat, Jack and the Beanstalk, etc

Although, excellent choices in comedy, (I don't like Monty Python, but love Carlin and Dangerfield), deep down, I pictured you more of a Steven Wright kind of humor.
