PFAL: An Unorthodox Translation
WordWolf replied to Tom Strange's topic in Doctrinal: Exploring the Bible
We can, but isn't this beneath us? Can't we wait until he restarts trouble before invoking it? It's equally possible he's grown beyond this position and we're needlessly taunting him with it. Ok, maybe not EQUALLY possible, but possible and fair. -
Looks like she doesnt want a taste of the treatment she gave Mrs W. And "term limits" was a campaign promise-you don't expect her to tell the TRUTH, do you? And yes, they're reshuffling the chairs to make it LOOK like there's more people. Because if they keep SAYING there's more people, some will believe it... Gotta justify the budget... Let's see... 20 x 8 x 8 x 7= 8,960 in the state. Supposing all of those were "typical." (Average-sized twig, and branch, etc.) And of course, that was one of the biggest states (NY, vs CA which were about it.) Later... 7 x1=7 in a state. My the numbers sure have gone down a bit, haven't they?

Reminds me of 1984. The Ministry of Truth ran the propaganda. The Ministry of Peace ran the war. The Ministry of Love ran the brainwashing. The Ministry of Plenty ran the rationing.

I think it was one of the Wayans brothers. Talked about his daughter crashing her car. Like any teen, the first words out of her mouth must have been "My daddy's gonna kill me!" Cops checked her ID. "Yeah, he will. He'll get away with it, too." I also liked the Saturday Night Live coverage. Like when they supposedly had him on, and he was talking about how if you love something, it's ok to kill it. For example, that Ebola virus that loved all those people...

No, that guy was sure they were tribal tattoos. He'd gotten some back in the 90s when everyone else was getting them. :) Not the same scene. In mine, he wasn't sure if they were added or inborn.

"I was admiring... your markings. Are they decoratiive?" "No. Are yours?" "No. ...If you don't mind me asking... how far down do they go?" "All the way."

Should be any day now, IIRC.

I'll have to remember that. Are you looking forward to the Richard Donner cut coming out soon?

Ok.... Deep Space 9. Julian Bashir and Elam Garik are talking. Bashir just told the story of "the Boy Who Cried Wolf". I know the scene, but not the episode.

Correct. "Remember Me." Go, Raf!

I think this was when Worf "admired gall." That was when we met Kevin Uxbridge and found out why we won't be running into any Husnock anytime. (We never did encounter another Dowd, oddly enough.)

Why Do We Criticize TWI Doctrine?
WordWolf replied to Oakspear's topic in Doctrinal: Exploring the Bible
What he was referring to was the mistake most of us made, where we confused CORRELATION with CAUSATION. That is, confusing things that were TOGETHER as if one explained the other. vpw taught some things (taken from others) that made sense when explained. He then taught some other things (some he made up) that didn't make sense. Since part seemed to make PERFECT sense, we trusted that anything we didn't understand made sense and we just didn't see it. (Or considered any error to be too small to matter, depending on the example.) So, if you got healed under one ministry's umbrella, you might conclude that means the ENTIRE MINISTRY-its curriculum, leadership and so on-was quality, whereas it might only be the LOCALS that are quality. That's what JB was talking about. -
Actually, Raf would tell you it was Juedes that covered this one... http://www.uia.net/~messiah7/vp_stiles.htm http://www.uia.net/~messiah7/vp_stolenrthst.htm But I'd like to see what else was found.

IIRC, the story was that Rosal1nd R1nker (I may have the wrong person) supposedly told him Bullinger wrote like vpw taught, and gave him his first Bullinger book. Not much longer after that, vpw WROTE "like Bullinger wrote." In the same sentences and chapters and books and so on.

The Word-Faith Movement ALL stole from EW Kenyon- including vpw and Osteen. Which is no guarantee what was stolen was WORTH stealing. LEONARD. He stole the names from LEONARD. He did that when he stole Leonard's class, and his name for his publishing co, CANADIAN Christian Press. He stole the class' TEXTBOOK from STILES in the same year. "Receiving the Holy Spirit Today" was what he called the textbook and Leonard's class when he was saying it was his OWN class. (Later termed pfal.)

Would you care to post any examples from Stiles' book?

A) Don't they still "turn over" employees so they're fired or "asked to leave" just before they can reach eligibility for stuff, or is the candidate pool so shallow they actually have to keep hires now? B) At those wages, how much can a few years of that add up to, really? Even if others get something, only those at the top are more than a "rounding error."

Correct, which makes this hiway29's turn. I thought naming "Fred Scuttle", Henry McGee and THAMES TELEVISION were giveaways for anyone who watched the show. Henry McGee interviewed "Fred Scuttle" and "Chou Minh" a LOT. Apparently not. Actually, he taped several years that were never aired in the US. (They werent as funny as the ones that WERE aired here.) So it's Hiway29's turn, since never tried a guess when he had a "clear shot." :)

This show was never up to the standards of PBS. This is NOT a recent show-it aired some time ago. This show sometimes got static over the musical numbers and the "questionable" humour. This show mixed comedy skits with visual gags and speeded-up motion. This show had a number of regular characters, and the most common recurring characters showed up in interviews, where the real name of the interviewer was used in the skit, as he interviewed the character, who was always doing some DIFFERENT profession from last time, as if they were being introduced now.
