QUOTE(princessdi @ Mar 7 2007, 12:43 PM) [snapback]183422[/snapback] I am not insinuating anything. I just asked where she was. To my knowledge she has not been on the show, or very visible lately. That is all I meant. Now, from your response one would thing something was wrong. I don't think we can get around Brandi being brought up either. Now what is off limits is anything pertaining to her life before marrying Danny. However, she will be mentioned as she inherited this mess through marriage. @ Bystander trying to tell Calvin on me! Stop! Remember, my g-mom use to say that a lie don't care who tells it.

I didn't know Brandi had a brother. But I am sure that he is pretty much off limits. Unless it has something to do with the owrkings of 3ABN, I think we should just let this die right here. Brandi married Danny and is only mentioned in relatinship to that. No need to drag in her whole family. Not very nice, either.
QUOTE(lurker @ Mar 7 2007, 09:45 AM) [snapback]183424[/snapback] O.K. Even if we say she is off limits, is her brother? It is a matter of public record in the courts. Does not necessarily reflect badly on her. Just that she may feel that he needs moral support and sympathy. -------------------- TTFN

QUOTE(Bystander @ Mar 7 2007, 12:24 PM) [snapback]183412[/snapback] Wow, this sheds some light on a subject that keeps being mentioned here. EGW couldn't be any plainer on the subject. That helps me understand the "personalities" of those that are a big fan of Voltaire. Have you ever read anything written by Voltaire? Have you ever even tried to do so?

It would be foolish indeed to read Voltaire after reading what Ellen White has said. Oh, but you think you are big men and you can tell what is right or wrong in Voltaire's writings? Well, then consider this: "Just as soon as you begin to think you are big men, and that you are so large that you can comprehend and pick out all that is precious in INFIDEL authors, and leave out all that is vile, then you are wise above that which is written....The devil is right by your side, and the evil angels are there. The devil is a great deal smarter than you are, and you cannot see what he is driving at. He will so cunningly interweave his sentiments with the thoughts of these writers, that it will be IMPOSSIBLE to distinguish the error which they contain." This was taken from This Day With God, p. 217 (emphasis mine) Mr. J.--go ahead and look up what I wrote about Voltaire yourself. I believe Child Guidance and Great Controversy are both available online in case you don't have the book to verify what was said. Here is the link for you: http://www.whiteestate.org/books/books.asp Or if they don't have this online at their site, then borrow a book from your Church. Oh, and Clay, ignore my spelling mistakes. Thanks. |

Excuse me Clay? Are you trying to accuse me of something? Are you speaking of what I said or of Ellen White? And you are a moderator on here? What kind of example are you?
Sorry, your ad hominem remarks show that you just must have the last word, even if there is nothing more than to say I am not using my brain. So tell me, what part of my post tells you I'm not using my brain? Can't find anything? then it is better to be quiet than make useless accusations. |

Thanks. You do realize that your thinking would have been very much at home in Berlin in 1936, don't you? Are you going to wait until sundown for the book burning or is it so compelling that you need to start it right away? Ray Bradbury didn't know how prescient he was being in writing Fahrenheit 451... but when people like you start endorsing censorship and the avoidance of ideas as something laudable... we are but a short step on a slippery slope from having firemen that start fires with material deemed 'objectionable' rather than putting fires out; who take the lives of those deemed dangerous thinkers rather than saving lives... And to make it worse, you actually think your stance is righteous...

Well, those comments pretty much let us know where you stand with Ellen White. Unbelievable. Lee is correct when she says satan makes sure you can't discern between what is good and bad by infidel writers. Very few people would be arrogant enough to say they could, and wouldn't you know it, 2 of them are here, woops 3 I forgot Fran... |

Wow Clay--you are a just like pickle--sure go ahead and accuse me or Sister White. Since you refuse to answer my question, I will assume it is both of us.
Yes, this is a public forum. And you can say whatever you want. But to insult a prophet of God is serious business. Are you sure you wanted to go there? Oh, did I say how you are like Pickle? Well, for pity sakes, can't you figure it out? |
