Bible Note: Ray, please, please -- you've been requested again and again and again -- when you quote a passage from Scripture, quote it EXACTLY as it is written in the particular translation you're quoting from. Please STOP inserting your private symbols, such as parentheses, asterisks and diagonal marks. When you write at the bottom of your Bible quotations, "The parentheses are mine for comparisons," no one knows (or really cares) what you are talking about. Once more I ask you, "Ray, is it impossible for you to copy a text exactly as it is written." If you want to mark up your copy of the Bible with your own brand of hieroglyphics, that's your business. When you quote a passage of Scripture on this Forum, it becomes our business. Please quote it verbatim and leave your personal markings where they belong, at home tucked away in your personal copy of the Bible. Please don't force members of this Forum to take sterner measures against the content of your postings than have already been taken. Do you understand what I am saying to you? --Hank |
