I don't quite understand why someone would devote 20 years of self study to a subject they deemed trivial.

Am I reading you correctly? You think mathematics only applies to the trivial elements of life? Wow! ...just...Wow!

Ya know, I'm beginning to think you're not quite the grammar expert you think you are.

I must not have been paying attention. Can you give a brief summary?

You're probably right.

Now, here's the part that puzzles me. If PFAL is the pure word, why did God allow for so many errors to find their way into it? And then there's the part about not being known since the first century. The vast majority of content is simply material that was copied from other sources, some more than a century old at the time PFAL was compiled. If it hadn't been known since the first century, how did these people hear about it before VPW? Maybe this is really the Great Mystery.

You forgot "necessarily". Somehow you have to squeeze that in there, too, or the whole thing falls apart.

In regard to cults and religions being a joke, there is no difference.

Farewell the temple master's bell His kiosk and his blackworm seed Courtship solely of his word With Eden guaranteed For now Prince Rupert's tears of glass Make saffron Sabbath eyelids bleed Scar the sacred tablet wax On which the lizards feed Source

Is this not the same as saying you believe PFAL is God-breathed?

Maybe it's a grammar thing.

How Wierwille's words became God-breathed: HERE

When I was a little boy, my Mommy told me it's not nice to fib. You know what I want to say, now? Are you a mind reader, too? On second thought, maybe you're not really the grammar expert you think you are.

You seem to be the grammar expert, so I'm asking you.

Did you notice that little word "implies"? Now couple that with "not...necessarily". It doesn't mean that some parts are and some parts aren't. It only implies that some parts may be God-breathed. Then, again, maybe none of it is God-breathed. It's not stating an absolute. There is an element of uncertainty. So, the question remains, how do you determine which parts might be God-breathed and which parts might not be God-breathed? Or, for that matter, that any of it is God-breathed. "Not-necessarily" is not an Easter egg as you call it. It's simply a common phrase that people use to indicate a lack of absolute certainty.

"Balls!", cried the Queen. "If I had to, I could be King." And the Jester laughed because he had to.

Let's play the semantics game, shall we? "Not all that Wierwille writes will necessarily be God-breathed." So, this implies that some parts are and some parts aren't. Can you tell me which parts are and which parts aren't? (I wasn't paying real close attention the first time around.)

I still struggle with fractions at least 2/7 of the time.

That's what I was afraid of.

Do you add it through that little hole in the top?

Well, then we need some traveling music.

Soooo, you're basing your assertion on 40 year old, secondhand hearsay?

Archeologists recently uncovered an ancient coffee shop of sorts. Among the items they found were 3 coffee cups inscribed with the names Timbo, DJ Silas and Paulie. They also found an ancient percolator, the basket still intact and filled with what appeared to be the remnants of moldy, stretched coffee.

Probably more like: "uh huh, uh huh."...(If I placate this bozo, maybe I can end this nonsense.)

I remember, once, while doing some yard work in the hot August sun, stumbling upon an Easter egg the kids missed on the Easter egg hunt. Gave a whole new meaning to "stink".
