Dear Ann; A fair question. Thank you for asking. I would presume that we have much in common here. I am an investor who has a great interest in spiritual matters as well. I am most interested in three stocks at present. QDEK a software company that has been beaten up badly but has won many awards of late. PAP the largest manufacturer of paper in the orient, again the Asia problem tells me there is a buying opportunity there and OH Oakwood Homes which is a well run modular home builder. I figure the baby boomers will need a place to retire. I don't think they are well prepared for retirement and will have to settle for mobiles. I am also a believer in Yeshua, who I believe loves all people. He loves you as well. I have noticed that many here believe that all religions are equally true. That it is wrong to criticize a persons faith. These two ideas are in direct opposition to the loving philosophy of this man that I love very much. He commands me to be a witness which I feel is important for me to please him. I hope you will be tolerant of that as we continue our discussion. I agree that criticism is hard to take. However if it is true that there is only one G-d then to share him is an act of love. I hope that you will look at my motive in this light. You seem to be able to see the best in people which is admirable. I think we can agree that when evil is done in the name of religion, i.e. sacrificing a child, it should be confronted. You have spoken many times about how destructive organized religion can be. I am interested therefore in how you might in a loving way help me to show that the example before us is wrong, without being offensive. How would you go about telling a person who feels G-d has told him to kill a child ( a real life scenario ) that it is wrong? I believe that you may be able to do so in a positive rather than destructive manner. I hope this answers your question. What would you say to them? In Yeshua's Love for You - DLL
