Bob,

Since you misinterpreted my remarks completely the first time, I suppose it would do no good to explain again. Nowhere in my message was there even a tiny "smack of envy or ill-will" towards Mark. To the contrary, I made a genuine complement of his well done message. The observations I made were general in nature and not directed at him. I was not trying to make a connection -- simply an observation of current trends.

Nowhere did I say that everyone in the financial sector served no purpose or 100% were evil. I did say that the system that operates today is replete with corruption and offers those at the top ways to operate with powers that our forefathers never intended, and if the example of the $15,000 wine for lunch seems reasonable to you, then I have no further comment.

I also did not classify an entire group as "not worthy of God's graces", but did make the remark that those who operate at the top using immoral behaviors seem to have no heart to even work on, and I think this would stand up in court based on prior actions.

Lastly, I have no envy for those that truly work (with brains or brawn) to earn what might be considered even an opulent lifestyle. But I do have contempt for those that prey on hard-working middle to upper class people just because they can and use the "legal" theft to support outrageous habits and lifestyles.

I remain,

SOROS

P. S. Sorry I offended you, but by your post, I'll bet there are many things in the Bible which offend you. I did not write the book.
