"Specially"

[Chris R]

I'm quite sure you have a point to make, so lets hear it.

I just find it to be odd that you'd take a type of people and just call them all rude.

I appologize , that wasnt my intention.  I read your explanation sounds resonable to me.

Peace

Thank you all for the clarification.  I obviously misunderstood the motives behind this thread.  Maybe it was in the wording...I'm not sure.  One thing is for sure, though.  We are all much more clear on the meaning of the word "specially".

Paul, to you, I apologize.  Please forgive me for misunderstanding your intentions.  I understand now that your were merely trying to create healthy dialogue.

Joyce, I just read your second post on my question about Titus 1:10. You cleared it up for me.

I think Paul's admonition was of "a religious" set of rules NOT of a people group: the Jews.

Sozo, no problem. I probably should've been more clear that this was basically a word play thread.

If a car is "specially" equipped on the production line does that mean that all the other cars are to be deemed obsolete and demolished??

If a computer is "specially" equipped with a braille keyboard does that mean all other keyboards are worthless and should be destroyed?

If a child is "specially" gifted in math do we then refrain from teaching the other children mathmatics?

Specially in and of itself doesn't mean exclusivity or inclusivity. It depends on the context.

The competitors are all given medals, but the gold cup is specially for the person who comes in first.

Praise God.  I loved this thread!  What love and maturity.

Out of all the wisdom, this one is what will stick with me:

All Americans eats grits, specially those in the South!!!

NOW, I GET IT!!!!!!

I think that is what I will use to tell my girlfriend- we are both Kentuckians!!

I think it matters whether you put sugar or gravy on your grits.

But I don't want to divide the church, so I won't mention it.

I have actually had grits mailed to me because they are so hard to find up here in Canada...and grits are not really grits unless you put butter and sugar on them....and fry up some mullet and slice some tomatoes....and make some iced tea to go with 'em! 

[gmik]
