prisonchaplain Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 In this string, I'll post a quote, and let others guess who said it. With each wrong guess, a clue will be given. So, who said: I feel most ministers who claim they've heard God's voice are eating too much pizza before they go to bed at night, and it's really an intestinal disorder, not a revelation. First clue...the person who said this was not LDS. Quote
Windseeker Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 Whomever it is it sounds like Scrooge ``Why do you doubt your senses?''``Because,'' said Scrooge, ``a little thing affects them. A slight disorder of the stomach makes them cheats. You may be an undigested bit of beef, a blot of mustard, a crumb of cheese, a fragment of an underdone potato. There's more of gravy than of grave about you, whatever you are!''~Charles Dickens 'A Christmas Carol' Quote
jerome1232 Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 Whomever it is it sounds like Scrooge That may be a great clue as to the time period. ??? Quote
Guest Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 Abraham Lincoln, or C.S. Lewis. They said everything. Quote
prisonchaplain Posted February 10, 2015 Author Report Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) OK...3 clues 1. The person was a Christian2. He was a minister3. He once took went down a waterslide while wearing a suit to raise money Edited February 10, 2015 by prisonchaplain Quote
EarlJibbs Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 I cheated and looked up the quote. I wouldn't have known anyway. Quote
Maureen Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 I checked too. It's Jerry Falwell. And the next quote is: Sound, balanced teaching is a must. Our default should be to partake. Our default should be to live in joy, not condemnation. Our default should be to love, not to correct, to encourage, not to criticize. Clue: The person who said this is also non-LDS. :) M. prisonchaplain 1 Quote
Guest Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 Okay guys... there are SOOO MANY NON-LDS people out there... There are more non-LDS than there are people in China. Quote
Maureen Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 OK then, for my quote this non-LDS person also visits these forums, often. M Quote

prisonchaplain Posted February 10, 2015 Author Report Posted February 10, 2015 CORRECT! PolarVortex!!! Woot woot!!! Go ahead and give us a quote, if you'd like... Quote
PolarVortex Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 "It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt." No Googling, please... the beauty of this contest is in the guessing. Quote
PolarVortex Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 Time's up. Clue #1: The person who said this has a monosyllabic last name that rhymes with something found in every kitchen. Quote

Vort Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 Doctor Psychrowave? beefche and Maureen 2 Quote
PolarVortex Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 Judge Bork is a great guess, but it's wrong. Doctor Psychrowave surely ought to win an award for something (but I don't know what). Clue #2 (final): The person's first name rhymes with a large sea animal. Quote
beefche Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 Mark Twain said that, but I have no idea what that rhymes with in the kitchen....or how that rhymes with whale.... Quote
