Pia-

Occassional cigars?

I secretly have wanted to take up pipe smoking (you know, the C. S. Lewis thing), but I thought explaining it all the time was too much a hassle.

Every cigar I smoke is by accident, so I'm covered!

Seriously, though. . . .

Colossians 2:20-23 has interesting things to say about man-imposed rules on members of the Body of Christ:

quote:
Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances, (Touch not; taste not; handle not; Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men? Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body; not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.


Personally, I'd rather have true wisdom (relationship with Christ) than a show (shew?) of wisdom (bowing to man's legalism).

Tom, my uncle smokes a pipe and as a little girl I used to love the sweet smell of the tobacco.

As for cigars, we spend time in the Carribean where they roll some of the smoothest cigars in the world in little shops along the road to the beach or the mountains or wherever. And the rum is even smoother than the cigars.…

Accident, I thank thee for the verse thou sharested with us. To that I would add, Every good and perfect gift cometh from above, as Saint James reminds us.

Pia-

I don't know if I should say "Almost persuadest thou me" or "Get thee behind me Pia!"

HEY, for those who care, there's this great little site which will sell you FINE cigars 10 at a time! Usually you have to buy a whole box and they are the same. Here you can get 10, mixed and matched as you please. Best of all, they carry some great Dominican cigars. Here's the address www.cigarsx10.com

Modes (and everyone)-

It's not right that I earn my 50th post on a thread relating to "smoking," but I simply can't wait any longer to know what happens after Neophytism.

Oh, look, I'm an "A-B-C-Darian"!

Tom, its not right that all you get as a reward for that much work is to be called somethin' that ain't even in the dictionary (not the American Heritage Dictionary anyway).

Hey wait, you can smoke Cubans there (legally, I mean) can't you? Lucky dawg.

I'm getting the sense that we need to have a forgiveness hug. Eh? Maybe a peace pipe would be more approrpiate for this thread.

Congratulations Tom.

I guess Abecedarian isn’t in most dictionaries. It means: 1. One who teaches or studies the alphabet. 2. One who is just learning; a beginner.

Have a good week. ~ a

Thank goodness for Trosie. At least I didn't hit 50 just by virtue of giving you a hard time.

You sure you haven't seen any pelicans?

Yo Adiaphora i guess we don't have many linguistists amoung us. Cool choice of names. Im remminded of Micheangelo at the end of his life claiming that only now was he beggining to learn the alphabet of sculpture. Edmund Husserl claimed to be a perpetual beginner. Andy Warhol made a print intitled "The Philosophy of Andy Warhol: From A to B and Back Again." Virgina Woolf imagined a character who was a philosopher who viewed philosophy as a giant alphabet in which you start at A and progress from there. only one person per generation ever gets to z. acording to this character he was at letter q and straining for r. as a neophyete and a pseudo-itellectual im stuck on aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
