DaveH this is an Ad. Hom attack. If I must play by the rules so must you.
Besides......Didn't you (or perhaps Kevin) say that DavidM has given me a lot of passes......don't think I've used them up yet! <VBG>
Seriously Dean.....Do you not enjoy having a little rib poking fun here? That's what the smilies are for....so we can chat without getting too serious at times. If you really don't want me to kid you now and then, I suppose I can be serious all the time. But is that what you really want...???
Let me offer a suggestion, Dean....If you want to say some borderline AH stuff that (probably) won't get you into AH trouble, why don't you use some humor to do it?

You haven't been Reading the "off list" lectures I have been getting
lately-I.m telling you-they hate me because I am speaking truth:-)
DAVEH: ??? What
""off list" lectures"???
No....I am not in that loop, but I'd sure like to be. Who's "they",
and why do you think "they hate"
you? I hope you don't think I feel that way. Ahhhhhh.....I
see you used a smilie....so maybe you aren't serious....
DAVEH: Doing what, Dean??? I just read the above and fail to see what I'm doing to you. DavidM....Am I attacking Dean??? Maybe it is me that is myopic.....for I cannot see my own faults.

It seems that you may have a preconceived notion of how you think I
believe/work, and then try to twist the

to lead to a lot of wrong conclusions, but in your case I really think
you've made the conclusions first and then use weak evidence to support
your theory. And if anything (such as

suggest that I'm not telling the truth. I really do find your motivations
and thinking to be interesting, Dean.....! Too bad you weren't a Bible
translator.....I can only imagine

Another ad. hom. attack DaveH-Your wording are getting you in

Dean.....why do you perceive that I am attacking you when I am only trying to carry on a casual/friendly conversation?
All this while I am "off list"DAVEH: Hmmmmm......I think you just answered some of my previous questions, Dean!
defending myself by telling DavidM that I'm not the only one doing so.
ThisDAVEH: Dean......I don't perceive that I am attacking you. You just used a smilie above.....Because of that, I perceive that you somewhat said that in jest. Yet from your other comments, I perceive that you really fear me attacking you.
will help you DaveH. If you must attack-attack my words not me:-)
By theDAVEH: No......I had not considered that, Dean. Is that a common perception?
way don't you know that Preachers are translators of the bible
You didn't ask my opinion, but I'll offer it anyway. Rather than think that "Preachers are translators of the bible", I'd say it is much more likely that many "Preachers are mininterpretors of the bible".
-that is whatDAVEH: I think you and I have different definitions of what "translator" means, Dean.
they do-they tell people what the word of God is saying so that the people
can understand and get saved from hell:-)
Let me explain why I think your understanding is wrong based solely on what I've learned from TT, Dean. I have said that I believe the Bible is true as far as it is translated correctly. And for saying that, I have been and continue to be chastised.
So.......Now
you say that "Preachers are translators of the bible".
Do you think all preachers translate the Bible correctly??? If so,
then you would have a big dilemma due to the divergent opinions amongst
preachers as to their understanding of principles and doctrines found in
the Bible. If you say that not all preachers teach correct principles
from the Bible, then my original suggestion (believe the Bible is true
as far as it is translated correctly) would make a lot of sense, would
it not? Do you see what I mean, Dean?
