Shalom, thanks for the kind words. I got your e-mail. I should make one point clear per your statement that most people don't die from prostate cancer. This is true only in the context that older men may die with and not from it. It is estimated that something like 50% of men 80 years and older have some PCa present. My particular case is exceptional due to my age and the "score" of the cancer. If I really wanted to know the "bottom line" I guess I could have DNA analysis done to determine whether it is diploid, tetraploid or anueploid, which is supposed to predict the relative rate of tumor growth. I appreciate your prayers, but do not expect that I present fertile ground for Christianity. I do not rule out the possibility of a god with human qualities, just as I do not rule out the possibility of UFO's being extraterrestrials out for a Sunday cruise, but I can tell you that I have never experienced any feeling to support either of those belief systems. Once upon a time a group of rabid "missionaries" decided I would be a good prize to display on their trophy shelf. I was wined and dined (figuratively speaking) prayed over, and for. I was pronounced a sinner, and a forgiven one at that! My biggest sin at that time was being a lonely impressionable 22 year old stumbling through life without a clue. I learned first hand of the mean spirited "collective" soul that judges first and forgives last, all in the name of Jesus I might add, and for what? An easy living with constant reminders of the "us and them" hierarchy that prevails whenever three or more human beings assemble for the purpose of doing anything "righteous". Nope, I will pass on the Christianity, it is certainly your right to practice it, as it is mine to decline it. Your prayers for me must be totally freely-given, expectations of my being a good conversion candidate will prove disappointing. Peace
