This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

For me, that is the basic premise of BOTNS. It supersedes any scheme of 
universes, in that the correct scheme must allow the Father to be 
separated from the Son.

If the Logos is the "good news," then plainly it is possible for the 
news to never come.

Don't ask me about the Holy Ghost. ;)
