    Very...diplomatic.

      Lets see what Pekka makes of it. If anything can be screwed into something negative Pekka can do it.

        If he can't do it, on one can!

          Everyone should basically just quit whining about the meaning of it. I did explain it in the very OP already from both perspectives.

          If someone wants to argue about it, they should at least have their nipples pierced first.

              Well, it's what happens when people start repeating things already said many times before. That's the penalty, nipples pierced.

                  There are always substitute places for nipples. And it's not like I'm saying we should enforce this, I'm only saying if people want to make valid arguments in threads I created, they should have their nipples pierced or I win by default.

                      I think one at a time is good enough. We wouldn't want to be unreasonable.

                          No, it just means you can have an argument. That's all.

                            I'm not going to do that to me. Nope. Nuh uh.

                                When Jesus says that it's not about some 'earthly' stuff, but about the eternal saving of man.

                                He says it about something in which God is directly involved. Not about something in which God is not directly involved. I think that a saying like that is being putted out of the original context way too often.

                                Anyway, I'm with Pekka on this.
