@fmf saidI know what it means. However, you are not defining your "mark" in this case. Yes, I know and confess that "Jesus is Lord;" that is all you have. As you said, "you USE to say it also." I also USE to think and act differently with different beliefs. Clearly the same thing that you just said of yourself; you changed.
"Wide of the mark" is a common turn of phrase. If you don't know what it means, so be it.
What caused the change? if you wish to share.

@fmf saidI understand.
I am not the slightest bit interested in having a conversation with you about it.

@kingdavid403 saidIt's you, not me, who is pretending not to understand what "Wide of the mark" means in a regular message board conversation
I am not interested in your attempt to quibble about it.
Funny that you keep "quibbling" about it. Good day.
@fmf saidAgain, I know what it means. It is you who said that you know almost everything about me because I said "Jesus is Lord." It is you who is "Wide of the Mark" and not me. Then you insist that you know almost everything about me because I said "Jesus is Lord;" then When I tell you you do not know everything about me, you try to tell me that I am wide of the "mark" and that you really do know almost everything about me; even tho we do not know each other. You're interesting, that's for sure...

@kingdavid403 saidQuote me where I supposedly said I "know almost everything about" you. You are making stuff up.
It is you who said that you know almost everything about me because I said "Jesus is Lord."
@fmf saidHe is a mass murderer of muslims.
I've no idea who he is. And I can't be bothered to look it up. Anyway, now you know what "Don't pee on my back and tell me it's raining" means.

@kingdavid403 saidYou saying I "don't have much to go on" was a bit wide of the mark.
When I tell you you do not know everything about me, you try to tell me that I am wide of the "mark" and that you really do know almost everything about me; even tho we do not know each other.
I never claimed I "know everything" about you.
I simply told you that you saying "Jesus is Lord" gives me a pretty good idea of what you believe.
This was in response to you saying "you have absolutely no idea what I believe", which was another comment by you that was wide of the mark.
