Thanks, Sab.
Hey, where did your last avatar go? That quotation was from my all time favorite book, The Princess Bride. I read that aloud to my kids at least twice. The movie was sorta okay but simply didn't do it justice.

Marvelous - Wondering if maybe WTS are just 1,000 years off cause Mayan's started in 5126 but WTS goofed it and started in 4126 - always a bit out of date, you think? And now they realize they got the starting time wrong but they went the wrong direction by a hundred years. But ya know - those BC/AD dates get everyone confused. Guess they lost a ciper in there too but what's a few zero's - the prophet probably thought that added up to nothing - maybe they need a good statistician on their prophecy board? I tried volunteering but they wouldn't have me - think it was the gender thing and maybe it was my old age too! Think I'll file a discrimination suit.

Oh, dear. You are a SaltyOldLady. I suspect you'd have done a far better job of it.
However, Christians and Muslims, to name just a few -- are quite anti-female gender. Perhaps it's a Pauline thing. Just a gut feel, but subtract the apostle Paul's writings and you have nothing left to place women as second class citizens within the congregation; elders must be HUSBAND of one wife, then there's the head covering thing, then there's the headship thing, etc.
