Um, the typo cherry pick was just doing you a favor because I know you would have capitalized it if you had noticed. I’m not Roman Catholic, and I also own the entire McGee “Through the Bible Series.” What I gave was good advise about how not to undermine your argument by immediately causing offense to your target audience. They will deal with the offense first, and ignore any arguments you are making.

For example, “What part of the Scripture do you disagree with?” Is a highly offensive question. It presumes that the person being asked is in active opposition to the scripture rather than just in opposition to your particular hermeneutic. If disagreeing with your personal interpretation of scripture causes the immediate accusation of opposition to God then you are operating on the presupposition of your own infallibility. So people will immediately tune you out.

Well… it seemed like you were grilling me like a Marine sergeant would…..lol... also... I will take any and all advise given.. but, it is it wise to do so in an open forum? If you would like you may email me next time.. that would probably be better… Also if people are looking for a reason to get me they will.. No typo will stop them.

I also listen to Dr. McGee’s TTB -In Job at present-

Thanks for your reply and military service! God Bless!
