I'm saving money on Amazon with the interesting people gone who recommended good books and ideas. I can't even read posts from the ones attacking you. I have most on ignore. | |||

Glutton for punishment, are you?-) I find the cultivated ignorance and petty vindictiveness of that little clique a bit more than I am willing to subject myself to...not to mention that discussion is a foreign word to them. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Fence straddlers get a crotch full of splinters -- Granny | |||

I'm trying to read "The Invention of the Bible and Talmuds" by Donald Akenson. But after reading Barker, I'm finding it a bit of a 'dry' read. And...I haven't ordered a single book since I got banned. Not that I need any, mind you. I have plenty that I haven't gotten around to yet. But that forum was a money maker for them while we were there simply because of the number of books we bought. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Fence straddlers get a crotch full of splinters -- Granny | |||

I plan to just hang out on this and the refugee thread for a little while because I am just too busy right now with my crochet work to spend too much time chatting - which always leads to research - when engaging with The Mob. Speaking of glasses...me too. But glad you were able to find your way here! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Fence straddlers get a crotch full of splinters -- Granny | |||

CMS, You're not the only one! I forgot which thread it was on too. Did you see what I posted to Allan on the "Amazon Refugee Camp" topic?
If you saw my note, then obviously I did get it posted--but not on the thread I thought I posted it on! This is the topic I'm currently reading. It's quite a long one--goes up to page 62. Are you posting on any others? If so, which ones? --Linda ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ That which can be destroyed by the truth should be. --P.C. Hodgell | |||

So, where is everyone? Amazon is dead, no one posts here, what's up? | |||

Whatsamattah sugah, you missin' the inability of the ignorant rednecks to respond to well laid questions and refutations to their convoluted theologies that even they do not understand?

There is still some of that going on, just not as much, but yes I miss the lively discussions. I just told Cheri to mind her business, ;-) she is such a buttinsky. For the song, I would say Mary Russell. | |||

Guess I found all the dissension very tiresome. Felt much like having to hold your nose far above the sewage in order to carry on a civil discussion. The constant judgmental, condemnatory, holier-than-thou, when-my-mouth-moves-God-is-speaking, cyber bullying, and childish reporting to be much more like a spiritual vacuum than a spiritual uplift. Can't say that I miss it. Oh, and Cheri loves to butt in, always hoping someone will step on her, so that she can play the victim. Fancies herself suffering for the Lord when she does. And loves the attention she gets in the process. Some real strange heads in that bunch. And yeah, spot on with the song! Really blew my mind when she said her husband was Superintendent of Schools (for the county?). I kept thinking IF that were true, one would think she'd have learned a little something above 5th grade school-yard trash talk. 'Nuff of that stuff already! I am 1 of 9 children, 3 of whom are Evangelical-End-Times-Hyped-Up fanatics. My exposure to that deception was in overload on that forum! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Fence straddlers get a crotch full of splinters -- Granny | |||

You might want to consider sizing your avatar to Aantares specifications. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Instead of seeking understanding, people are increasingly interpreting the actions of others in the least generous way possible and assuming the worst of intentions. | |||

I might but it won't allow me to put one of my own up. I am also used to the place I post one to to edit it to size or all posts reverting to a new avatar. My definite bad. I also learned there is like a 5 hour window to edit your posts. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ “I’m not in this world to live up to your expectations and you’re not in this world to live up to mine.” | |||

robinhood, Yes, it's very frustrating when you're used to Amazon's no-time-limit editing policy. You can edit an old post a year after you originally wrote it if you want. I'm pretty sure the 5-hour editing window was originally put in place to foil an incurable liar and plagiarist (since banned). When someone would quote one of this dude's posts in order to refute him, they would discover he had engaged in yet another of his slimy CYA maneuvers. He had edited the post they were trying to refute, so it no longer said what it did originally. This all happened on the News forum of course. So the 5-hour editing window was put in place. It's frustrating to honest posters who just want to fix a typo, or maybe add a few lines to what they said previously. --Linda ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ That which can be destroyed by the truth should be. --P.C.

Or edit an avatar. I gotta ask why it says you can use an image from your computer and then not allow you too. Or use one from OneDrive. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ “I’m not in this world to live up to your expectations and you’re not in this world to live up to mine.” | |||

Robb, I can't help you because I've never had an avatar on Aantares, or even tried to have one. I really should, especially now since I revived the R&S forum. The real reason I don't have an avatar is because I am very cyber-challenged. I get frustrated trying to do things that are easy for everyone else. If I ask for help, I often don't understand the instructions given, which is even more embarrassing. Still, I'm an old-timer here, so I should try it and see what happens. There might be restrictions on newbies that wouldn't apply to me. I'm sorry to say I don't even know THAT! --Linda ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ That which can be destroyed by the truth should be. --P.C. Hodgell | |||

It just doesn't work like I am used to. They have 2.5 pages of presorted avatars to choose from but there are others I would rather use. It is okay. This site has some good points over Ammy and some bad ones. At least there are no trolls as of yet. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ “I’m not in this world to live up to your expectations and you’re not in this world to live up to mine.” | |||

Are you posting on any others? If so, which ones? --Linda --Linda[/QUOTE] I'm kind of just posting here and there. From the list that shows up on the right side of the Amazon page of top titles with new posts.. A little back and forth with Vicki on one thread. I like her, so I hope she doesn't mind me bugging her. I have stopped paying attention to the topics, since no one seems to stay on topic. Vicki and I were at the point of Hezekiah's boil and if it was the plague could it fit Isaiah 53. | |||

I just messed up a post to Linda. Oh, well.. Hey, that sounds like a good title. Too bad it is dry. I'll have to see if I can read some of it on Google. You are good friends with Barker, right? ![]() Not that I have gotten through every page of Volume one... Just enough to be dangerous. 8) | |||
