Steve Murphy Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 Adults with a good sense of humor just may live longer than old sourpusses, claims the Norwegian University of Science and Technology as reported by USA Today. Researchers tracked 54,000 Norwegians for 7 years and found that the greater the role humor played in their lives, the greater their chances of surviving those years. This was especially true of those with cancer. A great sense of humor cut one’s chances of death by about 70% compared with adults with a poor sense of humor. Get your laughing gear on. It may save your life! Quote Shine your Light on the World!
David Koot Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 Interesting. Steve Murphy is a pastor and is in Maryland, and has a blog, Lazarus lives! Lazarus is a pastor and is in Maryland, same blog? Is pastor Lazarus also pastor Murphy? Hey, gotta have a smile or two, right? Quote
Woody Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 Hey David .... you may be on to something. I do wonder if they are related. Who knows .... I may even be related to Laz. After all ... I am a brother you know. We all are brothers aint we. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
David Koot Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 Related? The smart money says they are one and the same! But, yeah, I know you and Laz are related. A good family to belong to! Quote
olger Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 I've had personal experience with laughter. It can be a medicine. Fortunately, the Bible distinguishes between good and bad kinds. Ie. the laughter of fools (Proverbs 14:9) and a merry heart that makes good like a medicine (17:22). Have a smile, olger Quote "Please don't feed the drama queens.."
David Koot Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 Hey David .... you may be on to something. I do wonder if they are related. Well, Redwood, no protestations or denials have been noted. Betcha they are one and the same. Ha! Multiple personas! Wonder if we should do something like that? Dave Quote
Steve Murphy Posted May 3, 2007 Author Posted May 3, 2007 I sent a PM to Lazarus to ask where he was Pastoring. I haven't had a response yet! Are you sure he's a Pastor? Did he say that? There are three conferences that overlap in this area. Maryland and Virgina have alot of churches. Quote Shine your Light on the World!

Wonder if we should do something like that? Yeah ... I just wonder how he can afford double dues to CA on a Pastors salary? Quote May we be one so that the world may be won.

Woody Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 I can tell he's my brother Laz from a long distance away. Just look at the photo .... it's a dead give away. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
David Koot Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 Yeah, and take a look at the email addy that Laz shared with us on his profile. Hehehe. Aww, cmon Laz, this IS interesting! I can just see a dialogue between pastor Laz and pastor Murphy! Will be fun to follow it. Hmmmm . . . Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde? Quote
Administrators Gail Posted May 3, 2007 Administrators Posted May 3, 2007 Indeed. Quote Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.
Moderators lazarus Posted May 3, 2007 Moderators Posted May 3, 2007 Redwood, are you kidding me? Just because Ps Murphy's avatar is a black kid and mine is a black cartoon kid u assume we are the same person. Anyway, take a look at the blog. Dogs on a Plane!!!! No offence Ps Steve but thats not my style. "Are you surprised?" is my kind of entry. Now the e-mail thing David does offer some circumstancial evidence but there are certainly many, many reasonable doubts. And another thing. Right now as I look at who is logged in Ps Steve is logged in. we couldn't be both logged in at the same time if we are the same person.

Woody Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 Quote: pastor Laz and pastor Murphy Yes .... I admit that they are one and the same. But what really makes me Schizo is that we have devoted all this cyber space to Murphy or his alias Laz. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
David Koot Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 Good point. But it does leave me wondering . . . How bout the rest of us? Split personalities lol. Hmmmm . . . The conservative Redwood having a lively discussion with his liberal alias, right here on C/A! Or how about Bravus coming up with a NEO-CON alias, and arguing with him/her on here. Wouldn't that be a show?! Alright, you guys, should we stay tuned? Quote

Moderators lazarus Posted May 3, 2007 Moderators Posted May 3, 2007 As I Pastor, I have seen the ones who are quick to make accusations are often indulging in the very same skullduggery. Redwood and David Koot hmmm Loc: N38d14.516m, W122d37.982m Doesn't this put you somewhere near Andrews? Quote: Of course you could! Log in as Laz in one window, then open a new window and log in as Ps Steve. Been done before. I didn't actually know that. Been done before....by who????? Why??? for what reason? I looked at Redwoods number of posts recently. He arrived at 1700 very quickly. Thats not the work of a newbie but the work of someone who knows his way around a forum. I'm reading the book Blink by Gladwell at the moment and there the whole Redwood persona reminds me of the Getty Kouros. Quote Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities.

Woody Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 OK ... Laz .... You win. I have to confess. My name is actually David Koot. I didn't want to come out and expose my liberal side but you have caught me in the act. You are one smart cookie. I am guessing it must be those Black genes or jeans .... Yeah .... that's what I meant. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
Steve Murphy Posted May 3, 2007 Author Posted May 3, 2007 This is really a wacky place and more than I bargained for. I've only posted a few times and I'm being accused of being someone else! Quote Shine your Light on the World!
Woody Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 Well Laz ... I was going to apologize for high jacking your thread . But, it is about laughing and this is a good laugh at your expense. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
Stan Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 I understand Steve and Lazarus are having very heated and hostile emails going back and forth.. Please tone it down somewhat. I am hearing now that Lazarus will retaliate and create a blog with the name Steve in it. I hope it does not fall to that level.

Woody Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 Quote: the whole Redwood persona reminds me of the Getty Kouros. Laz ... regarding the Getty Kouros .... The Getty purchased the work from a dealer in Switzerland who claimed to have purchased it from a Dr. Jean Lauffenburger of Geneva. Does that ring any bells for you? Redwood ... the Swiss/Swed Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
Moderators lazarus Posted May 3, 2007 Moderators Posted May 3, 2007 But the whole issue surronding that particular Kuros is that its a fake! Thats my point!

Quote: This whole situtaion is weird. I have one simple question. Why on earth would you start a blog entitled Lazarus Lives, when a member is already called Lazarus? I'd hope that you would have been a touch more original. _________________________ Clean and Articulate This is the message that started it all. I resent being challenged in this way. This is not the way that two grown men, let alone pastors,should behave. Quote Shine your Light on the World!
