There was, indeed, absolutely no indication that you had read Jason BeDuhn's criticism of the use of the word "Jehovah" in the NWT's NT aside perhaps from what can be gleened from wikipedia. Where are the "extensive quotations" you claimed there were?
the link was provided to demonstrate that i read the book, i think any reasonable person can tell from that thread that i have read the book. If you like i shall rephrase my claim and state that i have extensively paraphrased ideas from the book.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieIf you have quoted from the book extensively in discussions with R J Hinds, Jaywill and Suzzianne why not just clear this up and say where this happened and what the "extensive quotes" were?
how do you know, you have not read the book?
Originally posted by robbie carrobieThat block of text that you posted mid way down page 9 - try googling bits of that and you'll find some of those sentences come from disparate sources and are not attributable to BeDuhn. What a mess. It took just a few seconds to realize. No wonder you acted furtively after you had posted it.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieNo, I am saying that it was not an example of you quoting extensively from BeDuhn and that, as a reply to a request for an example of you quoting extensively from BeDuhn, it was bogus.
so you are saying that i googled those and put them together to make it look like i had read a book?

Originally posted by Suzianneyes its true, ive had enough i should have known better, no more for me, thanks, usual nothingness, no spirituality.
Why must every decent thread be infected with "the FMF and Robbie Show"? It's been going on now for 10 pages, driving everyone else from the thread.
Nice hijack.

Originally posted by FMFthanks FMF so you cannot say where i got those ideas? it would seem to any reasonable person who has read the book that they come from the actual book, but you would not know that because you have not read it.

Originally posted by FMFthis is why people do not want to engage with you. I have provided two references where i quote directly from the book, another where I paraphrase the ideas. Its really quite simple, i have read the book. there is no other explanation for it. You cannot say how those ideas came to me, they cannot be googled and put together as you have claimed?
In which post/which page did you retract it?
I want to take a look at how many pages you ran with the untrue claim before admitting it was not true.
