Casiv: Peace to you, too, brother. With all respect to you, I went back through the thread before I posted to Serenetime and even then I still had no idea to what she was referring or what she meant. I don't mind following your suggestion to read Matthew 13. However, I thought we wrote and read Notes to the Forum to aid in our understanding of the Bible. Instead, it seems I must now read the Bible in order to understand a posting. I don't mean to be argumentative, defensive or offensive, but -- I just read Matt. 13:14-15. Now I don't understand what you are saying either. Do you mean that if I don't understand Melchizedekau, Elijah, Solomon, Serenetime, etc., it's because my heart has become calloused? No sarcasm intended, but I thought the reason I couldn't understand them was that they were not making their meaning clear. I thought it might even be because they were being obtuse or that they themselves didn't know what they meant. Again, this is not intended as sarcasm. I am saying exactly what I mean. Does this mean that now we all have license to sit down at the keyboard with our eyes closed, bang out any combination of characters and then when people of average intelligence can't make head nor tail of our words, we can claim that they just don't love us? That they don't understand because they have an inappropriate attitude? I'm not trying to put words in your mouth. Once again, I am asking for clarification of that which is not at all clear to me. If the inability to comprehend the writing of others is a character flaw, then I suppose I need to repent. |

Radioman, perhaps I, having majored in English, am just more sensitive than some other persons to the use, and abuse, of my native tongue. Or perhaps I'm just playing the pedant. But, upon my word, I never cease to be amazed at the apparent ease with which various posters on this forum can manage to use so many words to say nothing. --Hank | ||||||

Maybe they are speaking in an unknown language, tongues. :) | ||||||
