    LOL! That's how I ordered my copy of COC - too much vodka and rum. Never did feel bad about ordering it. My wife wanted to know WTF was I doing with COC. I told her that I had all I could take of the Society. Funny thing is that she agreed. Both of us never looked back at the un-Truth. Buh-Bye Society - liars, slanderers, crackpots!

    I found Ray Franz to be a total bore in his books, Penton at least has some talent no doubt aided by the fact he is a scholar.. Though it was interesting after reading CofC to go back and count the number un-sourced plagerizations of this book I have encountered on the internet the last few years. Mind-boggling.

    Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm................you just made an enormous advertisement as to how much intelligence you radiate!

    Add this to all of your posts since you came on board in January as a total know-it-all, and never telling anything about yourself............you don't show much credibility.

    My guess is that you are a one man band and probably always have been. Maybe by the time you grow up, you will be able to think a little better and comment a little better on matters that so many on this board have been through and have much more knowledge of certain subjects than you can comprehend.

    Now I invite you to prove me wrong if you will. Perhaps it is your immaturity that makes you so knowing.

    Before I am chastised by anyone.......just read this hero's posts since he came here.

    This is why I can only find patience to post on this forum once or twice a month . It seems that people from a certain POV cannot say anything without being whipped on some level. I am actually a peaceable, agree-able debater, but this is like the 4th or 5th or time someone has questioned my intelligence, said I was full of "bullshit", or called me a "bastard" since I have been here.

    clippity clop, clipptiy clop- as DTTP scurries off on his horse to other forums til the next month or so... cippity clop, clippity clop...clippitty clop

    Why the anger Happy dad? :>) And I have probably told more about myself than half the people here, that is just an FYI..

    DTTP - Personally I found out stuff from CoC that I had never read before. It amazed me quite frankly. I had no idea half that stuff had gone on. At times it got really heavy and he went into lots of detail about things and I admit I skimmed over those sections but all in all it was an enlightening read!

    Oh... fantastic! Would you be kind enough to cite your documentation of plagerizations.


    Thanks so much for your contribution and assistance.

    As far as actual documentation I have not saved any, I could probably go find some. On Bnet they was a well read fella that I highly respected named Jwtruth. He would use that book like a textbook. The Bethel apostasy questions were extracted and placed in argumentation and the like. It was just an opinion on my part, I was not looking to argue or make some great point about it, just an observation that I think many would be forced to agree with.

    You accuse R. Franz of plagerism, then when called on it you say...
