(...) I just wan't to be clear: when I wrote "I won't argue that" above, what I am NOT arguing or contesting is that illustrators like me can put a spin on things. So, Tim, to say you agree with Bruce on this issue is also to be in agreement with (...) (20 years ago, 9-Sep-04, to lugnet.build.ancient)

|

(...) May I ask that non-Lego discussions be moved to the non-Lego area of Lugnet? (lugnet.off-topic.debate is usually a good choice). This thread diverged from discussion about building ancient creations a few posts ago. Thanks, Clark Curator (...) (20 years ago, 9-Sep-04, to lugnet.build.ancient)

(...) I'd agree with Bruce here, and also note that every other illustrated Bible also inserts its own spin/commentary in its illustrations. I think the BT rocks, but I disagree that the illustrations don't carry any commentary about the text or the (...) (20 years ago, 9-Sep-04, to lugnet.build.ancient)

(...) I agree with that assessment, but that still doesn't mean that you haven't put your own spin on things. Example (since that idiot reporter wanted to represent all of Lugnet with this particular episode): is there any part of the Bible that (...) (20 years ago, 9-Sep-04, to lugnet.build.ancient)

(...) It's just that I find so much of the Bible to be "juicy", whether it's because the stories are surprising, utterly outrageous, or just fun. That book is just loaded with good stuff. There won't be very much, in the end, that I'll have (...) (20 years ago, 8-Sep-04, to lugnet.build.ancient)

(...) It depends if you want to consider each and every point individually (which seems like a valid approach to me) or are trying to present an overall point that perhaps you have flogged to death already. Having said that, I'm not sure what real (...) (20 years ago, 8-Sep-04, to lugnet.build.ancient)

(...) At least be honest. Your "work" is mockery. It must be very amusing to you to have Christians praise the stories in the BT. Suckers! ;-) JOHN (20 years ago, 7-Sep-04, to lugnet.build.ancient, FTX)

It merely presents evidence for consideration. And in my view, (...) (20 years ago, 7-Sep-04, to lugnet.build.ancient)
