mannesah27,
Why don't you go to the "Roll Call Forum" and introduce yourself, that way we can judge how much credence to give your remarks.

Mannaseh, Homer Tomlinson reached thousands because he was a great publicist??? P.T. Barnum did, I know, but for him the medium was the message. You're saying that Homer T. had his heart in the right place, and that people knew about him because of his, to use your own word, "antics". In other words, the message was hidden behind the medium (himself), and he'd do whatever he needed with himself to make that message (which, I assume, you mean to be the gospel) heard from him. That, in my view, attributes more integrity to P.T. Barnum than to Homer Tomlinson. I don't think you intend that, but that's the practical conclusion of your defense of the man.
Do him a favor. Don't.

Rom 11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. Jhn 4:44 For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honour in his own country. Mat 12:36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. Isa 57:4

Yeah. Everybody here owns a Bible. Those verses are in there.
They have nothing whatsoever to do with Homer Tomlinson, Grady Kent, David Koresh, Jim Jones or anyone else we re discussing.
Now, about that Roll Call Forum request that was nicely made...

Wow, you guys are a bunch of grouchy old cynics aren't ya? 
Don't even let the new guy get their feet wet before you make them feel unwelcome. Estrange them for standing up for someone they have confidence in when they are being publicly mocked, why don't ya?
And why you are at it make them feelm like a hill for having the gumption to do so.

It's a matter of common courtesy, Poimen. You don't climb up in a stranger's car, put your muddy feet on the upholstery and change the radio station. Ease in... introduce yourself... engage... this is not some anonymous debate board, it is a community of real people.

Why do I get the feeling that I've read these remarks somewhere before?

Well, TCOG in Divine Order is also in OK. They are a limb on Homer's COG branch.
TPOT are a limb on Kent's COG branch.
I would suspect if they are not TCOG (Scottsville, KY -- Homer's original group) that they are TCOG-DO. But that's just a guess. *shrugs*
