Re: short question.
That message normally comes up if there is code in the title. Was that the case here?

Re: short question.
It does not seem to be Modulous. I tried again just now. There was some punctuation. Neither removing it nor posting the letter "a" alone worked. By the "title" I take it to mean the "subtitle(optional)"? This field is blank for me. I will go to 'chat' if that helps.

First of all refer to this thread. Admin, could the kendemyer of the theologyweb site be the same kendemyer of this forum?

Any YHWH discussion links.
With regard to what possible time periods the name (which seems to have once been a verb)could have come from. Example. I always heard c1200 BCE but historic grammar's(especially in English) are pretty much not avaliable.Most people,that have studied just a little Hebrew, can easily tell that III-H verbs were once III-Y (well its easy to tell since the grammar's always point out the reason for the appearing "Y"s and explain that they reflect an archaic form of the word left over,though I guess it isnt THAT obvious). I am interested in what kind of West-Semitic examples we have extant that can show us precise historical developments step by step.There are the Amarna tablets which have many branching dialects that use Akkadian words, but Canaanite syntax and morphology (differs from seperate regions,even the Amarna tablets arent 1 of 1 unified grammar).A very odd situation where an international language (Akkadian) developed into a hybrid language in Palestine.We have lots of tablets to document this distorted dialect(s).Brill even has a 4 volume grammar produced detailing it(it is so technical that it is unreal,better have Wikipedia ready for linguistic definitions). I doubt anybody can clearly pin down exactly when changes took place.Most of the historic Grammar process is theoretical especially when giving broad time periods saying exactly when change took place.One Canaanite dialect (there could have been hundreds of branches) could have begun a change LONG before it was documented in writing and/or diffused over a wide non-local base. But, that aside. I am wondering if there has been any discussions on the "YHWH" name. Thanks!

Re: Any YHWH discussion links.
This isn't a short question. This is more like a thread of its own.

Re: Any YHWH discussion links.
YHWH, Yahweh, Jehovah, adonai, lord, elohim, god, allah, Allah thread. should be a good start. Try hunting around here if that one isn't to your tastes. There is constant debate here about the name - not always strictly on topic.

Re: Any YHWH discussion links.
Hi, Nim, I contributed somewhere on the existence of inscribed stones dated to the second millenia,B.C., which used 'YH'or 'YHW' or similar. I`ll try to find it.

Random quick question
Is the name of the tea company "Celestial Seasonings" (intentionally or unintentionally) racist? "Celestial" is an old racial epithet for Asians, particularly Chinese. And it occurred to me that a lot of tea traditionally is of Chinese origin. And then I looked in the cupboard and found some Celestial Seasonings tea, and wondered if the name was racist. Any thoughts?

Cold blooded --> warm blooded
So, birds evolved from dinosaurs (reptiles). Its pretty obvious just by looking at an Emu and a Therapod fossil. (I actual saw an Emu face to face a short time ago and damn if it didn't LOOK like a dinosaur.) So my short question is: How did they go from cold blooded to warm blooded? It had to have been gradual, right? Anybody got any links to an explanation for me? Just wondering, thanks in advance.
