Well, as it turns out, Servetus WAS burned at the stake, but not on Calvin's orders. The Council of Geneva wanted him burned at the stake. Calvin, it seems, thought such a punishment was a cruel penalty for antitrinitarianism and opposition to child baptism. Calvin preferred a more merciful fate for Servetus. He wanted Servetus beheaded.

All I've heard are rumors, nothing firsthand.

I've heard about the divorce, but not that he's left. I'll let you know if I hear anything.

He has been saying the same exact thing for two years.

Anyone see the trailer? I hear it's FINALLY looking like Lucas made some magic.

Almost as pretty as some of those Chicago nurses.

Oh, and what a babe it is that uttered that line, WordWolf... The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen

I just checked IMDB as well. I gotta go with Steve! on this one. You have successfully stumped us.

Correct.

If only. Steve! Thanks for the assist earlier. I called him while I picked up my (late shift) lunch a few minutes ago: he kept me from going into the local drug store to pick up a pack. :)-->

She is smokin, I'll grant you that.

Of course, I could look for some other means of distraction...

Ooh, good idea.

Cry me a river...

Umm, step away from me, Oldies.

Oldiesman, you are downright mean sometimes. :)--> Okay, don't think about cigarettes. Ok, gotta think about something else. Hmm, what would work? Hmmm...

Not new here? No coffee for you!!!

For a good drag? Say goodbye to all the political forum posters. I WANNA CIGARETTE!!!! Okay, I'm bitter now. I mean, I'm better now. Air... Air...

To what profit? It's not the point of the discussion. Simple. They don't take something I respect and make an idol out of it, claiming that God BOWS to their misunderstanding of the language, for example. You are so twisted in your worship of the man Victor Wierwille that when you searched for the right words to convey what you were thinking, you saw nothing wrong with the thought of God bowing to Wierwille's stupidity. Oakspear doesn't do that. Abigail doesn't do that. Stop trying to pit me against them to justify your repugnant idolatry.

WordWolf: check out the thread on "tell me something I don't know" in this forum for more info on Vasquez.

right about willing to execute three or four random posters for one lousy drag... but otherwise FINE! :)-->

Come on, Al. Join me!

Hmm, new quote... Okay, an easy one... "Hey, Vasquez! Have you ever been mistaken for a man?" "No. Have you?"

Sigh. Okay, here's the thing: If it wasn't shown on a big screen at a movie theater, it wasn't a movie. Just like, if they put pineapple on a pizza, it ceases being a pizza, just by virtue of it having pineapple on it. Chicago was a musical made into a movie. Joseph was a musical that was filmed. Not a movie. And so help me if you start quoting Cats, I'll banish you from this thread now and forever!!!! Oh, wait. I can't do that. Oh well.

You see, HCW, it doesn't replace the Bible. It just sort of replaces it. Or, rather, it "replaces" the Bible, in a way. But it doesn't replace it. Get it? So what you have to do is not replace the closed Bible on your shelf: you merely have to replace the open Bible on your desk. Or your lap. That way you can master your book on keys to Biblical interpretation without having to worry about opening the Bible you're supposed to be understanding in the first place... Just Like Wierwille Wanted! I still think Wierwille's knuckles would bleed from the force of repeatedly slapping Mike upside the head for this boneheaded and backward theory of his.
