I am very interested to know the answer to this. Did you GENTILE TTers know you were considered "ridiculous" before or did you just find this out?

School spokesman Duff Tittle told the Salt Lake Tribune the photo had been altered because tattoos (along with smoking, drinking and premarital sex) violate the Mormon school's rules. "We have touched up photos for years -- as far as removing tattoos, covering up bellybuttons, just things like that," Tittle says. http://www.sltrib.com/2004/Jan/01142004/utah/128942.asp

Hi Dave:
I find it interesting that your nephew is stuck on the same question
as you and what does the _expression_ "tracted into" mean?

The apathy does not surprise me; nor does the confusion concerning
"truth" because there is massive Bible illiteracy out there even among
those in leadership positions in nominal Churches. Have you seen any
Barna polls on this?

How is your nephew so certain he is not being led by the blind? Has
he been born again by the Spirit of God and is he a follower of the
resurrected Christ? One who walks after the Spirit daily or is he just
another follower of Joseph Smith and his BofM?

How sad and what a shame that Christians are so lethargic.

Grace and Peace,
Judy

DAVEH: Note to some of the old TTers........Jeff has been gone from TT
some 20 months now, but he still refers to TT in some of his posts to
his Mom (who transcribes them for email distribution). Here is an
excerpt from his latest letter home that I thought some of you might
find interesting........

I have tracted through the area a couple times since I got here. And
it is tough. A lot of apathy. Everybody is
Catholic or Baptist. We tracted into a Baptist preacher last week. He
liked us, but of course we are a cult. Well anyway he
invited us to this Bible study. We watched him preach, then went into
the (illegible word), and he tried to bash with us. I have
come to new conclusions. The things he was saying were more than ANYTHING I ever heard on Truth Talk. I am so
grateful that we are not being led by the blind. This is one thing he
said.

I asked him, "Why would God create somebody to send them to Hell?
Did he know that?

Him: Of course. God is Holy, He is just. He knows everything. That
person was CREATED to give Him glory by going to Hell.

me: How's that???

Him: By proving that God is just. . .

Send that to Dave. . . See what he thinks. Well I am out of room. I
gotta go.
love, Jeff
