Sigh....as usual, Lenny is twisting everything around and taking things out
of context. If anyone is REMOTELY interested, I have all my postings from
that and will send them to you privately.

While I have never presented myself as a biblical scholar, I, at least,
argue using reason, logic and factual information. You, on the other hand,
refuse to answer questions put to you, or defend any of the ridiculous
positions you say you hold (like slavery being OK). Additionally, you
refuse to even acknowledge positions and arguments presented by others,
continuing to simply cry "You haven't answered me...you haven't answered
me!!" like a three-year-old having a tantrum.
