  2. No need to hang your head in shame.

  4. But they call LeBron "King James". Surely there must be a spiritual significance to that.
  5. Did you ever, personally, hear someone speak in tongues in a language you understood? Oh, I know, we've all heard about how some guy in Distanceville, U.S.A, spoke in tongues at a twig meeting, only to have some newbie say, "Hey!, that's my native language and every word made sense!" No, not those incidents. I mean ones where you, personally, heard someone have tongues with interpretation in a language you understand. I asked this question back in my TWI daze. I think I'll hold the answer in abeyance.
  6. Different bikes-----he had lots of them.
  7. All the name dropping was really just a gimmick they used to try to lend credibility to their product.
  8. Oh, I'm sorry. I thought that much had already been established.
  9. Can you imagine what it would be like if anyone was appointed "leader" here? How in heaven's name could you ever whip this motley bunch into submission?
  10. Such talent gone to waste. We could have used your services as a chart flipper or film projectionist back in the day. Those guys always seemed to nod off at the most inappropriate times. We could have given the job to you and instructed you to speak in tongues. But then again, according to Mr. Wierwille, it's supposed to act as a substitute for sleep.
  11. Bill Russell of the Boston Celtics was possessed. Bill Russell was possessed????? :o
  12. Actually, I think that particular scooter (1976) was a fully restored, 1949 Indian Chief. He had lots of bikes. Kick azz classic cars, too. They were kept hidden away from the eyes of the ABS-ing general populace.
  13. You heard it here first, folks, The Way has cooties.
  14. If the fork is in the road, it's a choice that only you can make.

  16. Only if you believe there is no spoon.
  17. I think it's about being able to do this http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://themindperspective.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/bend_spoon.jpg&imgrefurl=http://themindperspective.wordpress.com/2009/07/23/the-brain-adapts-in-a-blink-to-compensate-for-missing-information/&usg=__n7dR6tTPw9rEi8SQvaFB1ngHEfk=&h=440&w=640&sz=68&hl=en&start=24&itbs=1&tbnid=VzjJvmde5uAeOM:&tbnh=94&tbnw=137&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dbending%2Bspoons%26start%3D20%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26sa%3DN%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-US:official%26gbv%3D2%26ndsp%3D20%26tbs%3Disch:1 .
  18. "What has the word cost you?" Isn't this really a euphemistic way of saying, "Your efforts to sell PFAL are currently substandard. Step it up"
  19. 15. Discover the hidden benefits of flax seeds. (¿dónde está el baño?)
  20. I still speak in tongues. Only now, I don't give any spiritual significance to it. Here's an example. Suppose I have misplaced my car keys. I can speak in tongues and sorta zone out from what's going on around me. I can usually find the keys. But, and this is critical, it only works if I already know where the keys are but have forgotten. If I don't actually know where the keys are, it doesn't work at all. Another thing I use it for is to take my mind off pain. If I smack my thumb with a big hammer, I can speak in tongues and take my focus off of the pain. People have suggested I try other techniques, as well. But, why should I? I already know how to s.i.t.
  21. I'm not interested in debating whether the record in Acts is true or not. I do think, though, that it's possible what this record is saying is that these cats spoke in their native languages but people in the audience who didn't know those languages were somehow able to understand them. I speak English. But, suppose I addressed a group of people who spoke French, Spanish, German, Polish, etc. (but no English) and they still understood me. That's what I'm saying. No idea whether that's what this record is trying to say. It's just something that has kicked around in my head for decades.
  22. It's glossolalia. And it has a different effect on mental function than what we loosely call "meditation". It predates Christ (so much for proof of "Christ in you") and has been practiced extensively by non_Christian peoples. http://www.skepdic.com/glossol.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossolalia
