    A British Compliment ... Your'e ALL Soooo Preposterously Predantic!!

    One thing that always made me question JW thinking so much as a kid, were those 3 dots in quotes taken from professionals in the magazines. That space I always knew was a misrepresentation of facts and it interested me highly that to verify such comments was always most difficult in that position.

    That lil space I reckon was one of the reasons for my very first initial doubts at around 14. I would always go further in reading than most, past the scripture given in the body of the public talk to check out whether that was in fact what the scriptures were saying compared to the brothers comments.

    Hooray and cheers for a questioning mind. The borganisation put the very first seeds of doubt in my head and it only took 3 .'s to do it. Isn't it amazing how much you can learn from the seemingly very insignificant attention to detail?

    But you're all still preposterously predantic if you ask me!!

    peace

    Hi Celtic: You say "Predantic!!" Shouldn't that be "Pedantic" meaning: "pedagogic" or book-learned? Thanks. - Amazing

    Ai ISP, Nelly and Chimpgirl described me as like a moth on acid when I met them in London in the summer, what the hec, life is there for really living aint it?

    My apologies to all and sundry for my highly complex language structure. Even though I have not a qualification to my name, I still managed to study at depth quite a broad span of subject material in the past 6 years or so in search of my spirituality.

    Bottoms up!!

    PS Errrr no, predantic is definitely the fitting postulation, cheers anyway!! But I like you.

    dictionary.com as well as the Concise Oxford, 10th Ed. have no listing for predantic. I did find this on Google:

    http://www.google.com/search?q=predantic

    which seems to indicate it is a misspelling of pedantic. Perhaps this is an in-joke instead?
