Could we have a show of hands of all those who had never ever heard, prior to reading the first sentence of Nick's email, that Danny had accused Nick of billing improperly?

There are those of us who had heard certain things. It would not be appropriate for me to say what those were. All I will say more is this... that whichever limb whoever is on in this particular tree should be careful to stay close to the trunk and not go too far out.... for not all has been revealed that will be revealed. Things are not always what they seem to be. .............  ............... |

You're going to need a bigger shovel pretty soon Bob. I think I would let this one lie if I were you. But what do I know? I'm only a bear. -bear -------------------- |

QUOTE(Pickle @ Aug 13 2007, 03:20 PM) Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think you have yet explained how Duane releasing Tommy's letter without Tommy's permission is different than Gailon releasing Nick's letter without his permission. Clay can correct you as well if he wishes but it is quite obvious that there is a huge difference between the two postings. Duane gave permission for the posting of Tommy's email. It was his to give. Nick, on the other hand, asked that it NOT be posted. I posted much the same thing to you on August 5th, just a day or so after the email from Nick was posted and you asked a similar question. QUOTE The big difference here, Bob, is that Tommy didn't tell Duane to keep this confidential. Nick did. Let's not strain the gnats while we attempt to swallow camels. There is a better way. PB Click for full reference You can turn this gem any way you like, but the facets will not reveal any true justificaiton. Nick's email is posted. It was inappropriate to post it without his permission or until it truly had become a part of the public record. It is obvious that neither you nor Gailon has any intention to remove the email from www.save3abn.com. I hope what you gained by posting it was worth the cost. We will all be watching to see that impact. PB -------------------- Got Peace?

I don't recall your responding to my point that it seems quite obvious to me that Tommy's email was intended to be confidential. Thus, if only Duane's permission was needed before releasing Tommy's confidential email, then only Gailon's permission was needed before releasing Nick's email, since both Gailon and Duane were the recipients. |

Looks like the apples and oranges comments over there may have been dealing with Linda's daughter's letter, not Tommy's letter. Do you think you and I talked about Nick's letter over there too?

QUOTE(SoulEspresso @ Aug 13 2007, 10:57 AM) So ...  does knowledge bring us closer to God? Does knowledge have any relationship with a more sanctified life?And the Greek word for knowledge is ...  drumroll ...QUOTE(PeacefulBe @ Aug 13 2007, 11:47 AM) SE, epignosis? That's the only Greek word for it that I have found with Google so far. QUOTE(awesumtenor @ Aug 13 2007, 02:27 PM) Let's leave Marcion and his merry band of theological miscreants out of this, ok? I don't think they're ready for that... The word is "gnosis" so yes, PB, you were right ... epignosis has that as a root. That's where our good buddies the gnostics got their name. They thought correct knowledge could save. (Of course their "knowledge" was anything but ... but ...) A buddy of mine said to me this afternoon, "If knowledge could lead to sanctification, we'd be in the kingdom by now." I'm all for clear minds and correct knowledge, and I aspire to a plant-based diet even if I'm not there yet. But I have no illusions that those are significant contributors to our spiritual receptivity. -------------------- "The entire world is falling apart because no one will admit they are wrong." -- Don Miller, Blue Like Jazz. |
