I just posted to you without having seen this post.

I'm not knocking comfort. I'm calling cheap balm what it is, in my view.

I can't imagine that my remarks about the angel conceit have increased any reader's grief. If they have, I'm both surprised and very sorry.

I know that any such opinions make some 'religious' people angry. But that's a different question.

I think John Updike's comments trivialized the losses suffered on September 11.

Mine in no way did that. (I'm sure you know that.)
