Blaine:  Hey, Very good!!  Glad to hear personal stuff, after all the philosophizing, religiosity, etc.  (:>) I was born in Idaho, left there in 1955 to go to Taft, CA.  I worked in a theatre for a month or two, got hungry (didn't make enough to cover food at the theatre) and went to Bakersfield to join the USAF.  I did four yrs, mostly at Edwards AFB on the Mojave Desert, as an instructor in a high altitude chamber unit.  From there I went back to Idaho for six years, then to Salt Lake City to go to the UofU, graduated and moved to Southeastern Utah to teach school among the Navajo and Utes.  Da? Dine Bizaad nil behozin. (You speak Navajo?)  I ran a group home for teenaged Navajo girls (11 of them plus my wife and daughter).  I had a lot of fun listening to the girls pray to their Bear God before meals, but usually didn't understand a word they were saying.  But they would all laugh afterwards.  I suspect the joke was on me.  (:>)  ----- Original Message ----- From: Terry Clifton To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, February 03, 2004 11:06 AM Subject: Re: [TruthTalk] Adam's Transgression   DAVEH:  Correct.  At least up to the point where they partook of the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good & evil. How does God know about right and wrong?   You gentlemen are letting it get way too complicated.  You have obviously never been poverty stricken kids living in the hills of Kentucky.  If you were, you would know that the kid who owns the baseball gets to make the rules, no matter how worn out that baseball may be.  It need not even have a cover.  If it is the only ball in the village, the kid who owns it has great power.   Multiply that a few million times when you look at God.  He has all the power.  Everything belongs to Him.  If He says "this is wrong", or "this is right", you better listen, cause if you don't, you are out of the game. Job tried telling God a thing or two and got set straight real quick.  God don't have to explain to anyone.  He says it.  We do it. Real simple. Terry
