Re: Bye Bye Balrogs

Didn't think I had a 'tude'.
I can get one if you like---just let me know.

I gave some advice that it should be examined again.
Then demands of proof and quotes were issued, and rather rudely too.

It's not my job to hand out answers to a group of people who profess to research everything.

If the consensus is that the at most 7 quote stands no matter what, then it doesn't matter what I would say since it would be refuted as 'clearly and without a doubt' the quote means this... *insert perception by whomever*.

I simply question those perceptions.
For this I am labelled 'unscholarly' and 'curmudgeonly', and in the last label I assume it's more about the bible comment.
Or is it about the 'vagueness' of the replies?
See above for that---concerning handing out answers.
