anything...

What's anything got to do with anything? let's first come to terms with what "anything" means. websters dictionary defines it as:
1. pronoun
any thing whatever; something, no matter what: Do you have anything for a toothache?
(OH I HOPE THEY WILL WHEN I GET MY ROOT CANAL DONE AND TEETH EXTRACTED)
2.NOUN
a thing of any kind.
–adverb
3.
in any degree; to any extent; in any way; at all: Does it taste anything like chocolate? —Idioms
4.
anything but, in no degree or respect; not in the least: The plans were anything but definite.
5.
anything goes, any type of conduct, dress, speech, etc., is considered acceptable or valid or is likely to be encountered and tolerated: That resort is a place where anything goes

Now that we have established what "anything" is/can be, we can start breaking each one of these meanings down. anything, something, no matter what...I'm not so sure those three go together.
lets try it in their sentence they used above. : Do you have no matter what for that tooth ache?
WRONGGGGGG Do you have something for that toothache? proper but we are trying to use the word anything. I would ask, "can you just give me a vikadin please for this toothache.
the second thing it poses is a thing of any kind. anydog anywoman anychild anytoothbrush, anyemail, anyfriend, anyhair, anyletters, any pencils.... so, this determines that things are dogs, women, children, toothbrushes, etc....women and children are not things though...we are people...we are anyONES. but that's a different topic.
ok, next is in any degree or respect not in the least, does it taste anything like chocolate?
so anything means degrees and respect now? does it taste in any degree like chocolate? hmmm that sorta makes sense...not sure about the respect one...
moving on.
anything but in no degree or respect....so everything except ??? or anything but?

anything now goes, any type of conduct, dress, etc..is considered acceptable or valid. I think that a lot of nothings should not be accepted not anythings. :) that opens up a can or worms there for a big ole mess.

so, have we concluded ANYTHING from all this mumbo jumbo?
I honestly believe that Anything you ask in His name He will supply. It might not be exactly what you wanted but He will give you what you need. Anything else we need to discuss?
we can all thank Sioby for this lovely discussion on ANYTHING. :) teach her to give me an actual topic next time. lol
