All of his misquotes, twists and ... well the list is pretty long. Now obviously on some basics, such as Jesus being our Lord and Savior we agree.

Uh no. Check the Hebrew that the Greek is a translation of. Used lots of times in the OT and of men and never, as you noted, has amy meaning of "God".

Alberta is booming due to that kind of oil.

Humor is an essential part of life. After all our CReator made kitttens, puppies, otters and ... the Duck Bill Platypus. Great sense of humor.
