Wadn't no apple in the tree that caused all the misery, it was the pear on the ground, he he he. BTW, you shouldn't put Rev. in front of your name, Jesus Christ is the only one to be revered. At's a little sip of milk for all you preacher's if you can bear it, huh?

That is because of a lifetime of false depictions of wise men & shepherds at the manger at every years christmas play.

Re: Please answer these very easy questions.

There's a game we bought in Canada, not sure if it is in US, called MINDTRAP. It is the same sort of questions. It distracts or "traps" your mind away from an obvious flaw (such as no wise men attended the birth) by pointing you to something else that was said (such as how many wise men). The distraction is always something that makes you stop and start calculating or intensely thinking, which is a waste of time if you could only see the obvious point. It's a hoot!

MB, this is Saul with a sword. Can you tell me who the 15 Apostles were in the KJVHB? Name them if you know, the original 12 we know, so the last 3 is all I need. Thank you.

I love milk. Drink it often, but it's best when consumed with warm chocolate chip cookies. That being said my use of Rev. corresponds to Merriam-Webster's definition 2a.

Quote:
Main Entry: rev·er·end
Pronunciation:\ˈrev-rənd, ˈre-və-; ˈre-vərnd\
Function:adjective
Etymology:Middle English, from Anglo-French, from Latin reverendus, gerundive of revereri
Date:15th century
1: worthy of reverence : revered
2 a: of or relating to the clergy b: being a member of the clergy —used as a title <the Reverend Mr. Doe><the Reverend John Doe><the Reverend Mrs. Jane Doe>
And while I see Jesus as being the most worthy of receiving reverence, others can also be revered in a lesser sense.
