Oh all right then :o) I just wasn't sure but if two of you are then I'll dish out the gold stars.

I agree with carrot99 but I would also have thought that no 4 is the fig (angry fruit) in the Bible

[carrot99]

thanks mamyalynne - I'd never have got 'em without you!

[Mamyalynne]

ooopss apologies have not heard the term angry fruit in the bible sorry to have stamped my feet

[Mamyalynne]

well carrot has stirred debate so they are well deserved

[carrot99]

indian giver - go on take 'em back again!!

[reddoggy]

Can someone elucidate about angry fruit in the Bible please. I've never heard of that.

[carrot99]

now I have to apologise for being surly!!

[londonlove]

No, I agree with you mamyalynne and carrot99 but I think question number 4 is slightly equivocal - 'angry fruit' is not the term used in the Bible, but Jesus did curse the fig in anger (it is sometimes seen as a metaphor)

[Mamyalynne]

can carrots do surly ?? now onions they are a law unto their selves

[carrot99]

I remember there was a withered fig-tree but not the actual story.

[Mamyalynne]

Jesus cursed nooooo!!!
