    It means, "struggles or fights with God". (Gen 32:28)

    It still means "likes really big hooters."

    I don't give a RAT about them there facts. I prefer my version!

    And I'll stick with it! The WTS denies the facts all the time and sticks with their version in face of the facts. They TRAINED me to be an idiot just like them...

    So in that "rich spiritual tradition" I will choose the most unlikely answer: "Israel" means literally, "likes really big hooters."

    If "Israel" was alive now, he would not object to this definition. If he did, he would probably be gay, but that's another subject, and I don't want to go there...

    Sorry to mess up your nice thread, Gumby. Sometimes I just cannot help myself.

    Shotgun.....why why why.....do you always tell people about our personal stuff? Why? Perhaps you would like me to tell everyone about that big doll you bought at the same sale! You know....the one you have to put air in. Ya secret tellin bastard!

    Farkmeister,

    If "Israel" was alive now, he would not object to this definition. If he did, he would probably be gay, but that's another subject, and I don't want to go there...

    OK...then I'll go there. You may have a point cuz I remember that ol' Jacob wrestled with a male angel all night long! He also had no hair and had to steal some from a goat to fool his pa. No hair.......wrestling all night......Hmmmm. You may be right.....but I ain't going there.

    Gumby,

    : (Tm of smothers brothers)

    Tom, of course.

    I drop vowels all the time. I drop consonents. I drop entire THOUGHTS sometimes!

    The Smothers Brothers are one of my most favorite teams of all times. I saw Tommie and Dickie at the San Diego Wild Animal Park a few decades ago. They had not lost their edge, nor their wit.

    If you haven't heard Tommie do the "Slitherey Dee" bit, you haven't lived.

    Check out where the 12 apostles, 12 tribes, etc. and the statement "my father's house has many abodes" came from. (!!!)

    Great thread Gumby.
