Quoted from Grandma Bear

I don't think anyone was giving anyone shit...


Yeah, that guy who said, "No I won't read your fuckin' script", or something like that. (Sometimes you lost the whole gist of things when you paraphrase) I think he was kinda givin' people some kind a shit. But I liked him and his words of wisdom; so that shoots down the whole "shit theory".

Quoted from stevie
John actually said the Beatles were more popular than Jesus, which, at the time - 1966 - was true.


Quoted from Colkurtz8

Right on, its even more true today.


Quoted from dogglebe


The Beatles certainly get more time on the radio..


Lennon dug his own grave with those words.

Quoted from JonnyBoy


It wasn't actually anything to do with the OWC. It was more a general feeling that had been in the back of my head for a while. Just wanted to see if anybody else had experienced it, really - it's all very well to have that ambition or this ambition, but don't you ever worry that there's a certain level that might be beyond your capabilities as a writer?

Again, I'm not saying that this is what I fear for myself, or indeed this is what'll happen to anyone. I was just musing, really.



I see. I think it's natural for people to question their abilities. Those who are over confident, who don't recognize their weaknesses, are the ones who have little chance of succeeding.

Well if that condones Chapman's actions in your eyes, best of luck to you.

Colkutz, I'm not gonna get in a tit for tat with ya.   I tossed a couple edifying scriptures to JohnnyBoy, and even backed them up with examples of people who have overcome insurmountable odds and achieved greatness.   And then you and Phil wanna jump in and take cheap shots and Jesus.   I don't think so.  You can talk out of the side of your neck all you want.  The Grass withers and the flowers fade, but the word of the Lord stands forever.

This conversation is done.

Best of luck to you too.

Yeah, no kidding.  You guys seriously need to get back on topic.  This thread is becoming mediocre.

I stated a fact, Mike.  If you can provide any facts that state that Jesus gets more air time than the Beatles, I'd to hear it.

Sorry if your faith prevents you from accepting that (or most other facts).

It's probably not the first time that people confused Shelton with Satan.  Probably won't be the last.

Happens all the time.  Kind of hard not to when you're a jolly fat guy.
