    Don't listen to Rolf. He knows little if anything.

    First, I don't bully The Dude, but disagree with him. The Dude has very thin skin and calls anyone who disagrees with him a bully.

    The second thing of note here is that I believe evangelist6589 to be one of the most sincere people on this board. I don't always agree with his methods, or his reactions to situations, but I believe he is 100% sincere in his beliefs and he is absolutely on fire to be God's instrument in reaching the lost. On the other hand, I believe The Dude to be one of the more insincere and fake people on this board.

    The only one who listens to me, without the typical eye rolls, is my dog. Especially when I have a tennis ball... :)

    And that's the thing about help: it's especially best when it's unasked for.

    Remember the "Back to the Future" movies, where Biff kept messing up the saying "make like a tree and get out of here"? (when it should be make like a tree and leave) In BttF2, old Biff corrects his younger self, and says "you sound like a fool when you say it wrong."

    Well, guess what? When someone corrects your grammar, it's NOT because they're trying to make fun of you. It's to help you keep from sounding like a fool.

    So the question really is: are you willing to say "thank you" to the folks here for trying to help; or do you persist in your foolishness?

    Well, that was Christ-like and loving.

    If you're gonna start a thread about being loving, it'd probably be a good idea to practice what you're preaching.

    Funny; that's exactly what can be said about John.

    BTW: I don't know if you actually bully RD2 or not. He feels like you are, whether you think you are or not.

    No argument there. Where John runs into trouble is his constant rejection of advice and opinions--that he asked for.

    As a wise man once said: If you don't want the answer--meaning, you've already got your mind made up, or you don't want to be told you're wrong, or that you're gonna have to do something you don't really want to--then don't ask the question.

    I take no offense at his comment. Nobody else, on my behalf, should either. I chuckled a bit, truth told.

    Lies lies in this post. For starters I do not ask for opinions in grammar.

    Well you could go over to the dog house forum and talk about it over there. I am sure they would join in the gossip of the BB with you with gladness.

    Oh, please tell us where I lied. Not just the accusation: specifics. If I've lied about something in particular, then provide the example of where I've lied.

    And if I'm wrong, then I will publicly apologize, just like I did to RD2 a few weeks ago.

    Evan, when one calls another a liar, evidence should be offered. Otherwise, it may be considered slander.

    You mean : "Lies,lies. There are nothing but lies in this post."

    Or :"Lies lie [are situated within]in this post."

    Of course neither applies to Don's post.

    I do not ask for opinions in grammar nor advice.

    Hey Rippon correct my grammar. He he

    Rippon is a person "who" loves to correct mistakes in grammar as here needs his life fulfilled by doing so as that is how he gets his edification and fulfillment. Rippon Mayer even have surpassed the grammar skill of TadQuesy.

    No, you don't -- and I never said you did. As I mentioned a couple of posts back in this thread, those corrections were offered freely to you in order to help you keep from sounding foolish.

    But you have asked for advice and opinions about getting married, church membership, confronting your pastor, sending letters to "false churches," etc., etc.

    So where did I lie?
