A8.- The Terrace Standard, Wednesday, April 19, 2000 How many Bibles are there? Dear Sir: Excellent! Praise God! Not only do we have a philosopher in Tom Bro- phy, but now a religious scholar in Brian Gregg and a full-blown prophet in Manfred Lubke (letters, 22 March). Now, if I could only figure out Zeev Hom- burg, who sent me some curious pamphlets | (are they Zionist or neo-Nazi propaganda, Zeev?). Perhaps after another issue of The Standard J will have 12 disciples and we shall all go fishing. 1 would turn the Skeena into wine. We would get drunk eating steelhead and talk- ing politics, theology, and our prostates. But to my prosecution. Brian thinks that if 1 had read Tom's letter | would have seen the slippery slope down Big Brother’s tongue to his gaping maw. Well! ] knew thal was not Tom’s letter we all read; it was Satan’s. Indeed, as Brian pre- sumptifies, 1 must have been a victim of “satanic ritual abuse” myself. I admit it, | was: every Sun- day at Mass — that Latin does strange things to you. Much better to have his King James Version: that Shakesbeere’s language of the early 17th century is CORRESPONDENCE FOR THE TERRACE STANDARD The Mail Bag stupendous clear (though | remind Brian that the KJV is Protestant, which burns the fingers of wayward Ca- tholics like Tom and me). And there is no trusting — those “ungodly seminar- ians” who create new ver- sions of the Bible as if it were a TV Guide to be up- dated with each season's salacious linguistic titilla- tion. Then again, more people watch TV than go to church, so maybe them seminarians are on to something. Definitely a carbuncle. Hang on, though. As to Brian’s accusing me with “fornication” and John 8:44, I admit that I am as guilty as the next fellow in resulting from it, but surely my parents are to blame for that, though I myself have sinned in creating a child, mea culpa. However, since Brian would seem to claim that he has not been and has not fornicationally pro- duced, we can conclude only one thing - he is an alien. But let us not hold that against him. Rather, as he talks Bibles, let us redeem him with John 1:1, which I prefer in the original Greek but hére give in our every- day TV English: “God’s da Man, an’ he da Word!” Now, “word” in the Greek is “logos”, which in pré- TV English translates to reason, tationality, con- sciousness — all that hard brain stuff that the Old Nick loves to poke with his fork. Brian, as an alien, evidently arrived and got stuck at the time of King James’ Bible and that dia- bolical Shakesbeere, but since Shakesbeere is and alien too, because of his language, that King James, speaking in that same diabolical Shakes- beere English, must be an- other alien, especially since he had Brian’s “ungodly seminarians” in his court (read “alien in- Local voices lacking in the fight to stop shutdown of logging Dear Sir: The article on the logging freeze in the March 22 issue of The Terrace Standard has prompted me to write the following. I am retired so if the freeze came to pass (Lord forbid) it won't affect me fi- nancially; but it will affect the lives of my children and-grandchildren. Isn’t it a fine state of affairs when the likes of Greenpeace and the Sierra.Club.. begin to take aver the reins of. govern-.. ment which is assisted by’ European’ ac- tivists who have never even seen a bear in the wild except in our garbage dumps and who wouldn’t know a forest from an orchard, The phrase Great Bear Rain forest would be laughable if it wasn’t for the fact that these organizations have con- vinced the.Europeans that there is such a place; and the wimps in our provincial and federal governments allow these lies to go on without countervail. If our Prime Minister would get his nose up off the floor of the basketball court and apply it to the grindstone, and devote some time to counteract the blackmail being applied by these organi- zations instead of wobbling down the street on a bicycle somewhere in China, maybe he could make some progress in getting the truth regarding our sustainable yield forests, to our customers. I’m aware forestry is a provincial juris- diction, but the ramification of the log- ging freeze would be felt Canada wide. Could it be that Chretien has aspirations to make B.C, one large park, catering to ‘Eastern Canadians and Euippean tourists who would engulfus?, 9 wtersens Pearce I can hear Jane Stewart bragging about the jobs this would create. Yes, two to three thousand minimum wage jobs in the hospitality sector, replacing the same number of jobs that are presently earning enough to make ends meet. Congratulations to Justin Rigsby for saying it’s like it is, in the March 29 issue of The Mailbag in The Terrace Standard. I’m appalled that there isn’t more hue and cry from the hundreds of you here in this area that would be directly affected if this proposed disaster was to take place. Surely you aren't all a bunch of wimps, Sandy Sandhals, Terrace, B.C. vasion headquarters”) “translate the Bible from the original Aramaic, Greek and Latin just to confuse us to take us over. So take if on my reasoned historicalized rationaliza- tionality, Brian — do the Greek. And remember Luke 17:21 — the Kingdom of God is within you. Doing the Greek, if God is within you, and if God is the word (as reason and rationalily - and consciousness), then you too can be God - when -you’re reasonable, Just because you ar- rived late doesn’t mean you can’t learn from what came before you. As for Manfred Lubke’s jeremiad about out “democratic dictatorship” assassinating his “truth”, let him recall what we and our fathers fought for and against in Europe and Korea.
