ET1 (SS) Galen Young, is my title and name from my carreer in the navy. I retired last year (March 01), after 20 years.

I am an Electronics Technician (Silent Service) accordingly I rode various submarines, from '78 through '97. During '97 - 01 we were in Italy working as police, and I served with Kosovo (defending muslims from christian retribution).

Sudo - I was doing stuff with BBS's and Fido boards through the late 80's and 90's. Good to see others that have been on-line from old.

Good to hear you Kit.

I think that public schooled children do have a more difficult time stepping out of the box.

1979 - 1997

1976 - 1997

This one was one of few doctrines that I did not agree with in TWI.

By the rules of doing Word studies. We look at all the places where a word is used and from the context we build a definition.

Gal 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

Rev 9:20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:

21 Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.

Rev 18:23 And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.

24 And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.

pharmakeia is translated as: Witchcraft, or sorcery.

Reading each of these 3 contexts, it is difficult to translate pharmakeia into drugs. Here TWI went to latin and pointed out the similarity between greek (pharmakeia) and latin (pharmacy). To state that these verses meant drug use.

TWI broke their own rules for conducting a word study, they went to see how men of later generations used a word in their vocabulary.

pharmakeia and harlot are both about the only ones that I was able to argue about successfully.

Sudo -

"We dentists have advocated the use of fluoride in drinking water since the early 1950's and have been fought at every turn. Folks said it was a Communist plot and even today the lunatic fringe says fluoride will destroy minds and free will."

I do not mean any insult to you, nor your profession.

In 1983, my supervisor (ETC SS John T. Burg) had to have a series of operations on his jaw. As I understood it, he grew up in Phillidelphia with flouridated water. Supposedly the water's flourine had dissolved his mandible. When I knew him, they had to slice open his jaw and re-pack it full of ground bone, to fill-in for the bone that had leached away.

His multiple operations took a long time, and appeared to be fairly painfull. He seemed certain that it had been caused by the flourine, and the government did the operations on the assumption that flourine was at fault.

Was that in error?

Hogan's Heroes:

Was a great show, and it included many references to the masonic underground, it had a former concentration camp prisoner, and a former German soldier. What better cast to mock the Nazi's.

Baywatch:

Marketed world-wide, and a major cause of our current fighting. More titilation would be hard to compress into a single show, and it violates just about every religous group's standards. Great example of America.

Who Wants to Marry a Multi-Millionaire?

I have heard of this one, but I thought it was just a one-time thing, was it a series?

Howard Stern:

I have heard about this show for years. last year when we returned stateside, I found that we could get it on our TV. So I finally was able to watch it, ugh. I have a difficult time understanding how this could be popular.

Saturday Night Live with Howard Cosell:

SNL made fun of Cosell many times, I did not know that Cosell hosted one SNL, kewl.

The Flying Nun:

I grew up watching this one. as a kid I liked it. could be because she was cute. I dont remember enough about it, to say whether it was good programming.

Most of the shows on this list, I am not familiar with sorry.

Oh yeah

We are interested in finding Gary Durban.

David-

"How long have you been back in the US?"

We returned Stateside last march, when I retired from the Navy.

We thought you were still in Florida.

We are back in that same house when you last visited.

Bless you and Gail

PS. Guess who showed up on our doorstep one day?

He was on the George C. Marshall SSBN 654, with me.

Someone that we thought we would never see again.

Then we met them again in Scotland on the Lake.

Wait for it.

Carl (and Diane) Stigers

They just bought a home in New London and are doing fine.

Just looking for some old friends here.

Galen

Here we are.

We were here 1978-1981, and again 1990-1993, and again we returned (as the Lord led us) in 2001.
