Well there are three or four posts on this thead alone that have explained to you point blank - and directly - that I'm just not going to type out stuff for you that I've typed out countless times before and yet you've somehow managed to not understand it every single time. So, maybe you'd have the same inability to understand even if you looked at ten thousand posts. π
Originally posted by FetchmyjunkPoint blank what? I've told you point blank that I am not going to type out any stuff especially for you. I'm just not going to do it. I can't get any more point blank and to the point than that. And it's tens of thousands of posts, not 10,000... and as far as I'm concerned, very, very few of them are "odd". π
If that in your book is point blank and to the point, then I am afraid I will be wasting my time reading those 10 000 odd posts, especially if they are also 'point blank and to the point'.

Originally posted by FetchmyjunkYou've asked me several times if I'd tell you about stuff that I've explained can be found in my posting history, assuming your curiosity is genuine. I've told you point blank that I'm not going to ~ I've told you maybe 4-5 times.You should read the content of my posts. π
Ah there I was thinking that you meant you had [b]point blank answered my question.[/b]

Originally posted by roigamOnce more, because you brought it up (not me) and then took flight when asked about it. Be clear now. Are you - or are you not - claiming that the NWT translation of "EN ARCHE EN HO LOGOS, KAI HO LOGOS EN PROS TON THEON, KAI THEOS EN HO LOGOS" as 'In the beginning the Word was, and the Word was with God, and the Word was a god' is "accepted by most Bible scholars as the best translation available"?
Excuse me but this has been translated just that way in several other Bible.
The NWT used master texts for it's translations.
A master text is accepted by most Bible scholars as the best translation available
according to the latest ancient scrolls available.
What Bible do you use and what does it say at John 1:1? Also, what scrols were used in
that particular translation?

Originally posted by FetchmyjunkYou will find that you'll get treated here only with as much respect as you earn or deserve. On this topic, on page 18 of this thread, I got the distinct impression you were simply taking piss by being as gormless as possible, ignoring what I was saying, and asking the same already answered question over and over again. I decided to indulge you no more on the issue which is a personal and fundamental one - it's not something suitable for your kind of lumbering piss take routine. Call it a cop out if that makes you feel better about it.
What a lame cop out.π

Originally posted by FetchmyjunkBe that as it may, but I wouldn't swap my posting history on this forum for her's for all the tea in China. If I had her posting history, I'd be at pains to keep it hidden from family and friends. The same can't be said about my own posting history. π

Originally posted by FMFYou certainly hold a high opinion of yourself. For your sake I hope other people do as well. π

Originally posted by FetchmyjunkA high opinion? I simply stand by everything I've ever posted on this forum. I take full responsibility for it. I'm proud of it in that sense. You may not have been here long enough to realize that, for people like me (and, I'm sure, there are others who would say the same), talking about how you agree with Suzianne, or how Suzianne agrees with you, is not going to cut any mustard. If you thought that was a zinger, you'd best think again. π

Originally posted by FMFYes you must really be proud about how you have managed to duck and dive to avoid answering a simple straightforward question. π

Originally posted by FetchmyjunkWhich one? I think I've answered all your questions to the extent that have wanted to and without repeating myself or rehashing (retyping) stuff that I have discussed in thousands and thousands of previous posts.
Yes you must really be proud about how you have managed to duck and dive to avoid answering a simple straightforward question. π
