Rev. Bauscher,

Don't pay any undue attention to Dave. The idiot really believes that by throwing around the word "dialect" he might impress us into thinking that he actually knows what the word means.

For someone to have come here and lectured about how the Holy Spirit is a "broad", to borrow a word from a specific dialect of American English, and then to repeatedly announce his premature departure....only to come back and make himself look foolish again with his blatant racism (I don't care who your first wife was, Dave) - convinces me once and for all that he truly is, in all senses of the word, an Internet Troll. (for a definition of an Internet Troll, see the following: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_troll ).

The best way to deal with Internet Trolls is to ignore them, thus depriving them of the one thing they desire the most - drawing attention to themselves in order to fulfill some unmet childhood need.

Anyway, here is a map of the various American Dialects of English, and the link to the webpage which explains exactly what a "dialect" is and why all languages are made up of them......not the way Dave thinks that a dialect is something outside of a language or that there was ever such a thing as "Aramaic." There was never such a thing as "Aramaic" - Aramaic was, is and always will be a series of dialects just like the map below of dialects of American English. Incidentally, there is no single entity known as "English." Never was, is not now, and never will be. This is how the dynamics of human speech works. But again, we can't expect Internet Trolls to know that.

Here's the page:

See, Rev. Bauscher - Internet Trolls don't bother to edumacate themselves on the terms they so loosely throw around, so in the end they fail in their objective to make us think they are actually intelligent enough to have a conversation or debate on our level. Ignore an Internet Troll and it will go away.

Now, Rev. Bauscher - this is a really important point so I'd like for you to think and comment on it. After reading the material above about the various American dialects of English - answer this one question for me ........p-l-e-a-s-e.

Imagine Jesus was actually born and raised near the Accabonac Creek in eastern Long Island, and spoke the Bonac Dialect of American English. Now, wouldn't a New Testament that recorded His words, but say in the Ocracoke Dialect of American English, be of far greater value than a New Testament that was not only *not* in any sort of English Dialect, but not even in English or even in a language that was part of the Indo-European family (let's say it was a language of the Altaic family, like Turkish for instance.)

Now, which would be more valuable? An "Ocracoke American English" New Testament which recorded the "Bonac American English" words of Jesus - or, a Turkish New Testament?

I know, Dave, I know. You're leaving again - this time for good.
