No big deal. If I say something here, I should be able to defend it. George

You might if you were still a follower of TWI. And it's not just VP we're talking about. What about other TWI leaders? Some of them were good folk. If I were a Catholic, I might stand for a priest or bishop, even though some (other) priests and bishops are child molesters. George I'm not saying what they did was right or wrong. I'm just saying that the God of the Bible can't lie. Unless, of course, He was lying when He gave THAT revelation... :) George

"On Golden Pond"? This exchange jogged my memory: "It just seems like we've been mad at each other for so long..." "I didn't think we were mad; I just thought we didn't like each other." George

Would you stand for a priest? A bishop? A rabbi? Any one of those might be considered a "cult leader" by someone outside his faith. George

Even if it hits New England, it will be the first US landfall of a hurricane in two years. George PS And isn't the varaibility the reason you (Raf) started calling them WAGs instead of cones? :)

:lol: I keep trying to work "How high? into this. Too bad he wanted you to stand instead of jump! George

"Cocoon"? George

"Tough Guys"? George

I remember LCM teaching Exodus (no, not the one where everybody leaves TWI), and saying that if the midwives lied about the Hebrew boys, it was because God told them to. You could have heard a pin drop in the big tent. But it didn't take long for the "faithful" to swallow it. My assistant TC remarked after the teaching about this new "revelation." I pointed out that the Bible says it's impossible for God to lie, so how could He give "revelation" to do so? Plenty of believers lied in the OT, and it often worked out for the best; but they weren't spouting God's words! George

Correct! George

Without knowing the context, I couldn't really say, but slaves of the Israelites were taken care of fairly well, as required by the Law. Obviously, it's been different in other cultures (Israelite slavery in Egypt, African slavery in America, etc.). George

Apparently, you're not a person like johniam. George

"Don't you see the rest of the country looks upon New York like we're left-wing, communist, Jewish, homosexual pornographers? I think of us that way sometimes and I live here." "That sex was the most fun I've ever had without laughing." "Sometimes I ask myself how I'd stand up under torture." "You? You kiddin'? If the Gestapo would take away your Bloomingdale's charge card, you'd tell 'em everything." George

Well said. ;) George

Even if you didn't leave Buck's name in the middle quote, I would have gotten it from the last one. "Uncle Buck" (The high school scenes were filmed at my old high school, and the kindergarten scenes about a mile from my home.) George

Hm. I would have assumed it was Elvis Stojko. :lol: George

"The Running Man" was his PREVIOUS post. George

Well, the last quotes pretty much give away the movie's plot, I suppose; but I don't recognize it at all. George

I'm a PhD. Joined TWI in grad school. People do occasionally call me Dr. St. George. (In formal settings.) George

When I was in college, one of my fraternity brothers was a big fan of the pulp fiction character, Doc Savage. So, I began to call him "Doc," and the name stuck. Later classes thought he was a pre-med, or something. :lol: Does this have anything to do with this thread? I don't know. I'm just saying... George PS I AM a doctor, though I've never played one on television.

No idea. George

Of course the title wasn't "Project Rebirth," but it is "Captain America" (The First Avenger) And thanks for the homage to the old ('60's) Krantz Marvel cartoon. Cap's song was the only one worth singing, anyway! George
