Actually, if the account of Wyatt's claim I read was accurate, it (the blood) should be all over everywhere. Since the article I read claimed that the scientists were "overcome" when they saw that the blood cells were still dividing.

Hi Lam, a.k.a. Darth Mal,I reviewed the article. Apparently the blood cells had to be placed in a growth medium before they began dividing.

Amazing claims

An actual sample of Christ’s blood, with chromosomes allegedly still visible under the microscope, showing that there was no human father. Placed in growth medium, the cells began dividing, says Ron.

Hello PecosGeorge,Just curious here about your transliteration "aloham", because transliterations can result in confusion.Do you mean instead to say: ברוך אתה אדני אלהינו מלך העולם(Baruk atah adonai, Elohainu, melech ha'olam)Blessed are you Lord, our God, king of the infinity (or, the universe).This would seem to make better sense than anything your transliteration "aloham" might otherwise be intending to refer to, such as עלֵֹהֶם (over them), for instance.If this is what you intended, it is the common beginning to Jewish thanksgiving and blessing prayers for most holy days. And while the developed theology of both Jews and Christians is self-evident, this does little to invalidate schrafinator's point that some earlier writings tend to describe יהוה in less omniscient terms.AmlodhiThis message has been edited by Amlodhi, 08-20-2004 03:35 PM

Hi schrafinator,You're very welcome. But no thanks are really necessary; I just try to tell it like I see it.I do, however, think that it is poor form to post something in an alternate language without providing translation for those readers who may not have had occasion to familiarize themselves with it.As always,Amlodhi

He cannot be proved, will never be, since it would topple the faith premise on which his requirements are based.

I have no reason to attack your position. But you must understand that some of us choose a different starting point from which to begin the investigation.

. . . I'm fairly good in German.

(chuckle). . more than I can say, but therein lies an anecdote.My son had organized a local chess club in the university town where he lived. And there was a wonderful specialty coffee shop that allowed the club to meet and use the tables there on Wednesday nights.I would often join them for some play and carried a flexible board with the pieces in a separate box. As it happened, the pieces were made in Germany so all the writing on the box was in German.At one point during play a darling young female waitress, who appeared to be about high school age, came up to my table to refresh my coffee. Seeing the German writing on the box she asked me, (in what appeared to be wide-eyed wonder), if I was from Germany.Now, when I was in high school (back in the dark-ages), I had taken two years of German, though I have forgotten most of it through years of disuse. Nevertheless, I felt that I had retained just enough to briefly tease this young lady. So I replied: "Jah. Ich bin ein Deutschlander. Haben sie Deutsch in der schule?"Her joy was palpable as she commenced to bombard me with rapid-fire and (to me) unintelligible Germanic speech. As it turned out, she had spent the majority of her young life living in Germany and had only recently returned with her parents to the U.S.As I said, she was a delightful young lady and when her shift ended she allowed me to instruct her chess play; even if she didn't need my help with her German.C'est la joie de vie,AmlodhiThis message has been edited by Amlodhi, 08-20-2004 06:28 PM

Hello again PecosGeorge,I know not what it means
that I am so sad
a myth of olden times
that passes not from my mind
the air is so cool and dark (darkening?)
and calm flows . . .Or that's the best I can make of it. Anyhow, too melancholy for me. I think Nighttrain and I will stick with singing "Mein hut der hat drei ecke" in der biergarten.

Como te llamas?

You already know what I am called. What you are wanting to ask is, "What does your name mean?" More like: "Que es el sentido de tus nombre?" I did also take two years of Spanish at university.Nevertheless, "Amlodhi" is an enigmatic character of Norse poetry. The quintessential "Once and Future King" whose esoteric presence, in various guises, pervades ancient mythology.But we are about 7 leagues off topic here now. As for playing around with languages or literature, el gusto es mio, but it would probably be best if you were to PM me and I will give you my email address.namaste'AmlodhiThis message has been edited by Amlodhi, 08-21-2004 05:42 AM
