‘Scuze me? I thought bigotry had to do
with race or something? What bigotry? Against left wingers? Nope—that would be
discernment, wouldn’t it? Izzy

I miss the Iz I once defended -- since the political exchanges, you
have contributed precious little to this forum. This "key to
understanding " the Defensive Three was started by one of your buds, the
well read Mr Slade but he is not included in your little tyraid
-- your bias is now more accurately defined as bigotry. We
patiently await the return of the real Linda Shields.

If you'd read what Jonathan said that I said concerning you in a couple of his

What is it with you Iz do you just set out some days to piss
some people off?
Please make an effort to be a little more thoughtful.

The
whole key to understanding why Lance, John, and Jonathan are so intent on
getting everyone’s “favourite” reading list is this: In most Christian circles
when someone meets you and wants to figure out what theological box to put you
into they ask, “Where do you go to church?”. If you say Baptist, or
Pentecostal, or RCC, they immediately know whether they think you are saved and
what your errors are. With the Defensive Three all they want to know is
what you READ so they can do the same. Why? Because what you read means
more to them than where you fellowship. It tells them what you think, and
therefore they can size you up based upon that. Izzy

Good list and I thankyou as well. Comfort, Brown and Douglas
are the translators of the interlinear I use. Same appreciation for
Young's over Strong's. Green is good IMO. Gives me some
confidence with the listings I am not familar with. Thanks again.
