Did you expect anything else?
Matt
2 Peter 1:2
Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.
LOL, no that is exactly what I expected. I've seen her do that too many
times, to too many people to expect anything different.
Lets see I made a comment. Where is the lie? Vera why are you
attacking so many people.
Exodus 20:16 (King James Version)
King James Version (KJV)
Public Domain
16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour
Matthew 19:18 (King James Version)
King James Version (KJV)
Public Domain
18 He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder,
Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not
bear false witness,
seems you need to do a little repenting.
Have a nice Day Vera
Matt
"My brothers, if one of you should wander from
the truth and someone should bring him back,
remember this: Whoever turns a sinner from the
error of his way will save him from death and
cover over a multitude of sins."
It didn't appear to be an attack, ion as much as the
picture she is referring to was menat by Mark as a general
representation of Christians which he seems to consider
brainless.
You are incorrect. The pictures on that site are of specific named people.
The statement she posted was a lie . She knew that when she posted it. Yes,
her picture is there.
Rod, they "luv" Marl T's form of what they call "satire" - so I wanted
to do them a favour with *my* "satire". I think it is funny. It is not
my fault if they have no sense of humor. I can also draw them all, Mr
Croucher with a Bible in the hand - and a picture of them all, just for
fun, oh, how much they would all be laughing! ROTFL!
::: vera :::
She calls that "site". lol
She is such a funny -err, "Christian". lol
But you see, her hubby is a deacon, so she can afford it. lol

Or she runs away, hurling more insults over her shoulder. She and John make
a good pair, and they're certainly doing sterling work as far as driving
people away from christianity is concerned.
Jani
Yes, you do need a sense of humor when you're on usenet,
but Marks satire isn't funny. Yes, I've seen the picture
of you on their and Marks comments, and for these folks
to think it's funny but cry when you hand it back to them
is hypocrisy.
What gets me is that no one thinks to call a stop to it
and end the fighting. Mark should change his site to
reflect the better qualities of Christianity, not
demonstrate the bad qualities of Christianity by creating
the site that he has.
What has happened to common sense and the love that
was reputed to be found in Christianity ? Or is that
just another badly told story ?
No Vera, I don't believe Marks site is funny, I believe
Mark represents the depravity that is a constant of the
human mind, and those believing it humorous need to take
a deeper look at their faith.
No Grace, I'm not incorrect. That last picture is a
picture mocking anyone not seeing things as Mark is seeing
them, that means he mocks any and all christians not
agreeing with his interpretation of what Christianity
should have been about.
Mark is about one thing, Mark. He sucks, his humor sucks
and those that believe he is funny are viewing him through
a dark glass.
The pictures on that site are of specific named people.
The very last picture is NOT, it's a generalization
of a christian character. It could be anyone subscribing
to a belief in the scriptures, and not to Marks pet
theories.
Mark is a cad, and a selfish, arrogant ass and will very
likely stay that way because he doesn't give a damn about
anyone but Mark. He has proved this by ridiculing
others....
> The statement she posted was a lie.
No, you are. You can't see past the obvious to
what has been right in front of you.
You say it! These hypocrites have been doing this for years now. It is
really not funny. I could do the same with them, but I do not think such
things are right. But I am in good company there, and thank the Lord for
my brothers.
> What gets me is that no one thinks to call a stop to it
> and end the fighting. Mark should change his site to

You say it. They have never said one word to stop Mark, but they even
laughed with him when he prayed for my death for about 100 times or
more. They are so rotten, really.
> What has happened to common sense and the love that
> was reputed to be found in Christianity ? Or is that

Mark is no Christian, but a persecutor of Christianity - so do not
expect anything from him. They are even proud to cal this guy their
friend and even "brother". Aaaarghhh..
> No Vera, I don't believe Marks site is funny, I believe

I agree with you.
Correct. It is a picture of Amazing Grace. <grin>

Not only others, but Jesus as well.
If he had done the same with Mohammed, he would probably be a dead man
now.
But Mark is a cad, as you say. Some others here, however, claim to be
good Christian people, posting one positive Bible verse after the other.
Or they started a big friendship with Mark, taking his side, giving up
the friendship to their brothers and sisters.
>> The statement she posted was a lie.
>
> No, you are. You can't see past the obvious to

Correct!
They see what they want to see.... They accept a Bible mocking monster,
and hate their brothers and sisters... That says much to me.

Hi Jani,
Yes, sad but true.
Grace
But your dark soul can be seen by your actions. You should pray for your
own soul as long as there is time - which I doubt. The devil is laughing
about your stupidity. There will be an hour which will be your last. How
will you spend it?
You really will be dead soon enough when the Lord calls you to His
Throne to explain all your actions against His People to Him. I am
looking forward to that already.
And while you are dreaming, I am real.

You say it, and he has been doing it for more than five years already.
He is on a vendetta for his brother, a homosexual who had AIDS. Now he
hates all Christians who do not accept homosexuality as a virtue but
regard it to be a sin in the eyes of God, which it is.
That explains a lot.
And your stirring it up is making it so much
brighter ? Come on Mark, stirring up more
hate won't gain acceptance for your brother
or for you, it just drives people further away
and you end up causing division, not healing
any breaches.
Is that your goal ? What do you hope to gain
from this ?

Good morning, Matt.
It appears that vera is attacking more and more people here every
day. A vendetta of hatred....... sad.
There you go - all pics of Amazing Grave there:
Wanna see a picture of Amazing Grave?
P.S.: You are wrong and the boss of the mobbers.
It is sad but it is also her pattern. Maybe Vera will write another

You are right on everything above, John.
Mark T. came to ACC and libelled me and others while I had not even
known anything of him. It was just because of his hate for all
"fundamental" Christians. He hates Jesus. I have seldom seen any worse

Amazing Grave link to his libel site. It says all there is about them

Mark is kind of like the rest of us. None of us agree on
everything about Christianity or fundamentalism . You, me,
everyone has their own views about certain things all in the
realm of Christianity.
We'll stand up and fight for what we believe to be true,
sure. We all do this! Right or wrong.
The difference between the two, Vera and Mark.... is Mark is
secure in what he believes to be true and doesn't need an
army to stand up and fight for him.
The more Vera fights with him the more he sees her just as
he pegged her.
Vera otoh wants everyone to join in her crusade to fight
against Mark.
Nobody is joining ranks with her to fight a battle war
against Mark. There is no need to, it's a ng open to the
entire public. Doh....
Vera feels people let her down and is no longer going to
associate them as being friends or Christians.
She now goes to extremes saying people chose Mark over her
so she now fights against those who were cautious enough to
listen to their inner guidance not to fight to help her
gain this weird kind of control over a *news group* that she
so desperately wants to control.
It's almost laughable to think someone would go to such
extremes to gain control of something they could *never*
control in a million years even if Mark wasn't here.
She tries to run people off to this day which is the
weirdest thing... really *weird* and when people disagree
with her desire for weird control she really gets in a weird
whirlwind and bingo.... bible verses of hate and discord
come bouncing out of her of which Mark also sees her doing
and displays her as one of the weirdest fundamental
Christians he ever met.
I'd have to agree in the sense that no one can take
control of a ng and turn it into just one belief...
hers,mine, yours,etc.
But she keeps trying and trying....and trying....I really
want to laugh about it but she's made it so serious you just
have to have pity for her and conclude that it is rather weird.

CORRECT!
People can be Mark T's brother or sister or mine. Both at the same time
is impossible!
> She now goes to extremes saying people chose Mark over her
Oh really? Where have I ever claimed this?
Fact is you belong together, Mark T, Amazing Grave, Matt, Feather (who
even phones withhereticks like him or "Pastor" Dave) etc.... But since
Mark T is no Christian, you are none, either. I for one am not one of
yours, that is sure!

And who of importance would care? What he is doing is libel, and he has

You cannot stop *me* from saying my opinion - ever.
The Gospel is of importance, not what you wicked person claim here.
Jesus died for my sins - however you would like to reject that - and all
who call upon Him will be saved. But the rest will all be lost - just
like you, Sensi. You will be lost in the lake of fire where all the
wicked will go - forever. No, you will not be destroyed, just thrown
there forever - after a fair trial.

He will not - but you will - after being sentenced by God Himself. You
will suffer an endless death in the lake of fire where all the wicked
people will be together with you.
I hope you will enjoy it - for you have been crying for it.
I am so sorry that there is no hope for you.
Yes, it is ALL satire! And now it is my turn for Satire, SSujbSS short

I can't speak for Mark but I can say He's studying the idea
that Jesus is great but God is even greater.
> The God of the Bible can assume any form He chooses. That's part of

Sensi:
Sure He can. He can choose you to be a part of him and send
you on a mission to help others and you could truthfully say
I and my Father are one, meaning you and He could have the
same purpose and intent to send a message of love and
forgiveness and to be of service to help heal man kind of
their differences.
God is omnipotent enough to place himself in everyone and
everything at anytime. anywhere in anyone or everyone....so
I agree with you. But I don't think you can stuff an
omnipotent God in one place, one person, one time and say
that's all folks.

Sensi:
The core...holds the essential structure of the fruit.
In this case it's picked from the tree of knowledge. This
fruit holds the DNA in the seed,the seeds carry the
flavor,color,texture, water and design to be what it's meant
to be.
If the DNA is love and forgiveness there will be a very
special appointed messenger to deliver the core of this
fruit in the form of knowledge that it be seeded into the
minds and hearts of the people. Jesus presented this fruit
of the Spirit...He taught about it, he practiced with it, he
lived it as perfectly intended. He even died for it to
prove love and forgiveness was real He even forgave those
who crucified him. They didn't have to believe him, they
saw it *through* him.

I claim Christ as my Lord which I see the name Christ as
being that omnipotent part of God that dwells/lives in
Jesus's heart & mind who-when Jesus often went away to be
still and quiet away from the crowd he could listen to His
Father as He guided him to do His work.
I claim Jesus as my brother, my savior, my example, my
teacher, but not my Father. God is the Father, Christ is the
Son and Jesus is the example of when God and Son become one
in heart and mind with same intent and purpose. Jesus led
the way of the Father and Son relationship.

Oh, come on - you will know where they are, since they were only posted
a short while ago... Google for the subject line, Jani! It will lead you
immediately to the posts in which you discussed private e-mails with
Andrew.
I hope my English is good enough to make myself understood... Tse...
Yeah, you were talking about e-mails from Andrew - do you want to deny
that?
Sensi:
Well, a good thing I don't have to search very far.
Err umm... read your own writing on the wall...
Hint....
two sentences above your last one and the whole next
paragraph below this one.

The rest of it.....I read it but it's the same old plot with
the same old story line.
Commercial break..
please show you can read, and understand English by showing the posts.
No time for such a nonsense. If Jani wants to talk about e-mails she
exchanged with Andrew it is up to her to do as she pleases.
Wrong - he hates Jesus, and he has never hidden that.
Oh, that is what you meant! Why did you not say it right away? I do not
care if someone chooses "Mark over me" - the problem is more that so
called Christian people accept the heretick Mark T and fight with him
against me - a Christian. It was the way you expressed it which
distorted what I meant.

Management of the HIV Infected Patient - Dedication to Brett Tindall
Date: 01 July 1994
Author: The Hon Justice Michael Kirby AC CMG, President, Court of Appeal,
Supreme Court of NSW (1984 - 1996)
Type: Speech
Subjects: HIV/AIDS, Person
Location: Sydney
For some reason which I have never discovered, Brett Tindall has always been
known to his friends as Badger. Mind you, I can see some similarities
between that remarkable creature and the hero to whom this book is
dedicated. The similarities derive from the fact that each traces their
origins to the Northern Hemisphere. Each is a small but powerful animal. The
habits of each are generally nocturnal. Above all, each retains its hold
upon the object of its attention with a terrible tenacity.
Brett Tindall was born in Sydney in 1961. At the time of this publication he
is therefore 33 years of age. But what an amazing life he has packed into
those years.
He took his first degree at the Cumberland College of Health Sciences. He
spent four years as an undergraduate medical student at the University of
Newcastle in New South Wales. He did not complete his primary medical
degree. I suspect that it was because something more important came along.
The AIDS epidemic. He worked for a time in various para-medical capacities -
as a tutor in nursing studies at the Kuring-gai College of Advanced
Education and as a speech pathologist in Sydney.
But by the mid-1980s, he was in the midst of the scientific response in
Australia to the AIDS epidemic. He began as a research assistant in the
Centre for Immunology at St Vincent's Hospital in Sydney in 1985. In 1987 he
was promoted to scientific officer. When the National Centre in HIV
Epidemiology and Clinical Research was established he was appointed a
research assistant to Dr (now Professor) David Cooper. In due course he was
appointed Senior Project Scientist and for a time acted as Manager of the
Administration of the Centre.
His busy life as a research scientist did not detract from his Badger-like
activities in national and international programmes addressed to the
scientific and community responses to HIV/AIDS. He served as a committee
member of the AIDS Council of New South Wales. It was the high opinion in
which he was held by his professorial colleagues, and his own outstanding
contributions to national and international conferences, that caught the
attention of the World Health Organisation in 1988. Dr Jonathan Mann, the
charismatic Director of the Global Programme on AIDS utilised Brett Tindall
repeatedly in WHO meetings concerned with the prevention of the transmission
and the reduction of discrimination once transmission is established.
Amongst the more important WHO appointments were those in 1991 and 1992 as
consultant to various governments in the Western Pacific region to assist in
the establishment of an effective HIV surveillance and policy. Brett Tindall
did not just talk about Australia's relationship with its geographical
region. He did something about it.
According to those who know him best, a critical moment occurred in Brett
Tindall's life when he discovered when he was himself infected with HIV. The
usual, one might say human, response to that discovery would be rejection,
denial and despair:
"Close up the casement, draw the blind,
Shut out that stealing moon,
She wears too much the guise she wore
Before our lutes were strewn
With years-deep dust, and names we read
On a white stone were hewn."1
But this was not the response of a Badger. Brett Tindall's discovery
coincided with the visit to Australia of Dr Robert Gallo, a famed scientist,
now controversially associated with Luc Montagnier, in the identification of
HIV. In a small workshop which Brett Tindall attended, Gallo was asked what
he would do if he found that he was infected. One scientist who knew of
Brett Tindall's late discovery of his own condition allowed his eyes to
wander to the Badger as Gallo gave his answer. "I would spend the rest of my
life trying to find a cure". Brett Tindall had his mission.
"'O where are you going?' said reader to rider
'That valley is fatal when furnaces burn,
Yonder's the midden whose odours will madden,
That gap is the grave where the tall return.'
'O what was that bird,' said horror to hearer,
'Did you see that shape in the twisted trees?
Behind you swiftly the figure comes softly,
The spot on your skin is a shocking disease.'"2
Brett Tindall has not discovered the cure for HIV/AIDS. Some sceptics say a
cure will never be found. But he did concentrate his considerable intellect
upon the task. His research, shown by his publication list, is phenomenal.
And its central focus has been upon the process of sero-conversion and the
body's responses to the entry of the AIDS virus into its midst. If the
differential impact of the virus and of the available, rudimentary modes of
treatment could be examined, out of the variations might spring ideas for
the cure. They may not present a silver bullet cure. But they may point the
way to the control of the infection and a scientific response to it which
will save lives, reduce pain and prolong the quality of life of those living
with HIV/AIDS.
I first met Brett Tindall at the IIIrd International Conference on AIDS in
Washington in June 1987. He was, by then, two years into his mission. He was
publishing furiously, usually with other heroes of the Australian scientific
work on HIV/AIDS. Ron Penny. David Cooper. Basil Donovan et alios. The
Australian contingent in Washington stole away from the rest. We took an
early dinner in a sidewalk cafe in the summer light. Ita Buttrose, who was
then (as she still is) communicating understanding to middle Australia
presided at this feast. By chance I sat next to Brett Tindall. So began a
friendship which endures. I recall how he talked of his work and how it was
the sense of urgency that he projected that was infectious. If only that
infection would overtake the other.
My service on the WHO Global Commission on AIDS threw me into contact with
Brett Tindall at the Stockholm IVth International Conference in June 1988
and at the Montreal Vth International Conference in June 1989. But then I
drifted away from AIDS whilst Brett Tindall, true to his Badger instincts,
continued to work at the burning furnaces.
In recognition of his original scientific work, the Faculty of Medicine of
the University of New South Wales admitted him to an MSc programme. The
University awarded him that degree for a thesis on "Factors Associated with
Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection and the Development of Acquired
Immunodeficiency Syndrome". In 1993 the same University conferred upon him
its Doctorate of Philosophy. And still the co-authored papers were produced
addressed to the detailed scientific data and targeted upon the process of
sero-conversion.
At the beginning of 1994 Brett Tindall went to Spain to attend the wedding
of a friend. By chance again, I was there. But this time we did not meet. He
returned to Sydney, struggling with illness. But he was ever determined and
resourceful.
Brett Tindall's life has become a series of goals. He has not given up. He
is an inspiration to friends and colleagues alike. And his work points the
way to the ongoing struggle against HIV/AIDS. It is a copybook example of
the lesson which one of his mentors, Dr June Osborn constantly taught. Good
strategies - scientific and social - in response to HIV/AIDS must be based
upon vigilantly observed and scrupulously recorded scientific data. Not out
of myth and prejudice but out of truth will come the effective responses to
this horrible and unexpected challenge to human health.
When I think of Brett Tindall. I think of his fierce determination, his
sense of urgency, his prodigious industry and his happy mixture of attention
to the scientific and social features of HIV/AIDS. He is an example and a
model for all of us. He teaches lessons about the indomitable human spirit.
When HIV/AIDS is finally tamed, Brett Tindall will have an honoured place
amongst the heroes.
"Near the snow, near the sun, in the highest fields
See how those names are fêted by the waving grass,
The names of those who in their lives fought for life,
Who wore at their hearts the fire's centre
Borne of the sun, they travelled a short while toward the sun
And left the vivid air signed with their honour."3
