Ping to those who may have been interested in the last thread posted on the subject.
Ping for those on the other thread.
I'll pass. Thanks.
See you on the other thread.
The case about Elijah not dying is compelling. Enoch was translated, so he can't die again. Moses probably died.
The case about John not dying is compelling.
Sorry, forgot to ping you guys over here.
Thanks for the ping!
"Moses probably died."
Probably nothing! He's dead, that's D E A D, as in Anna Nicole Smith. "kicked the bucket", "shuffled of this mortal coil", "reached room temperature" "pushing up daisies", "no pulse", "gone", "singing with the angels", "gathered unto thy people".
Num. 31:1-2, "And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Avenge the children of Israel of the Midianites: afterward shalt thou be gathered unto thy people."
So, you don't think it's probable that he's dead, if you think he died? It's Friday, I'm a Neener, You're a Neener, wouldn't they like to be a Neener, too?
Elijah & Moses jokes solicited. Solicitation is punishable by law, but comics make good money.
:>) More insight into Moses' life & teachings from kids:
Moses led the Hebrews to the Red Sea, where they made unleavened bread which is bread without any ingredients.
The Egyptians were all drowned in the dessert. Afterwards, Moses went up on Mount Cyanide to get the ten ammendments.
The first commandment was when Eve told Adam to eat the apple.
The seventh commandment is thou shalt not admit adultery.
Moses died before he ever reached Canada.
Then Joshua led the Hebrews in the battle of Geritol.
The greatest miracle in the Bible is when Joshua told his son to stand still and he obeyed him.
Damn those Israelites and their Chocolate Pudding Vats of Death! ;)
Many Hindus believe Enoch and Elijah were simply earlier incarnations of John the Baptist and Jesus.
He isn't only merely dead
He's really most sincerely dead.
LOL! Thanks.
I was trying to drown in chocolate pudding just last week...then I discovered it was a sorry, Egyptian islamofascist plot!
I put the remaining pudding in the fridge in one of those saran tupperware thingies....which, like tupperware, is never co-located with its lid.
On inspection after day before yesterday it had shriveled, dried, and appeared to be someplace between a gooey brownie and a baby diaper.
Islamofascist chemical attack!
I was reading "Why Men Hate Going to Church" this morning as part of my devotions and the author made a good point. He asked what would you choose as heaven,
a.) Dressed in a white gown and doing nothing but singing or playing a harp eternally as most churches portray heaven.
b.) Making celestial babies eternally as the Mormons portray heaven.
c.) Being serviced by 72 virgins as the Muslims portray heaven.
Let's see, singing or sex; singing or sex; singing or sex? What would a man choose?
An invisible man marries an invisible woman. The kids were nothing to look at either.
From the newly discovered gospel of Moses:
It seems that when the good Lord was making the world, he called Man aside and bestowed upon him 20 years of normal sex life. Man was horrified, but the Creator refused to budge.
Then the Lord called the Monkey and gave him 20 years. "But I don't need 20 years," said the Monkey. "Ten years is plenty." Man spoke up and said, "May I have the other 10 years?" The Monkey agreed.
The Lord called the Lion next and also gave him 20 good years. The Lion also only wanted 10, so again Man spoke up, "May I have your other ten years?" "Of course," said the Lion.
Then came the Donkey, who was also granted 20 years. Like the others, 10 was more than enough. Man again asked for the spare ten years, and he got them.
This explains why Man has 20 years of normal sex life, 10 years of monkeying around, 10 years of lion bout it, and 10 years of making an ass out of himself.
Um - all do respect bd, but there is no "d" choice, being the never ending buffet of apple smoked ribs, grilled shrimp, corn on the cob and a few coronas and limes with Lynyrd Skynyrd playin on the celestial radio xm
Thats so bad it makes medicine sick

Interesting, that is the conclusion the author comes to using different words to attract men back to the church. It is a challenging book for Pastors and Elders. Then again, every time I comment from it to K, she says "forget it".
Why don't you guys get the book and let's discuss it. The comments will rival the Luter and Nativity threads.
