It is not my education that is in question. When one claims to be a scholar (it is DM who makes that claim, not me), is given scholastic evidence as to why he is mistaken in his "educated" conclusion and responds with nothing but put-downs to the exclusion of any other consideration -- well, when that happens to me - I get aggravated. When one claims a certain scholastic level and responds with arguments that do not reflect scholarship - I am inclined to question the educational claims of that person. In fact -- it might be that David was actually casting doubt on my educational claims. I mean, he writes as if any first year Greek student would know that he is correct IN THE FACE OF QUOTED AUTHORITY to the contrary - authority that has nothing to do with my credentials, such as they are. When one does this, I believe he/she should be held accountable for their claims of educational accomplishment -- especially when they challenge someone as well received as JH THayer.

You just made it a major point, David the Scholar. You are self taught the last I heard. I am not.
Since you have decided to make your point while putting me down - we will follow this through.
By the way - what was your PhD thesis written on? I will be glad to send you a copy of mine,
when finished. We could exchange. As well as you write. I am sure it would be quite interesting.
I think you find that I can present an intelligently written thesis when I set my mind to it.

Big woop JD;
David is probably much better off - He and the Holy Ghost would be far less stressful and/or
complicated. What is the big deal with your, education, Greek, logic, and thesis? The Book
has already been written. Now if we can just understand what it is saying to us. jt
