Alan, <<Don't ask......... Ask God......... Don't Judge....... God Judges.......... Don't Question........ Question God?............. Faith.......... Acquire it and see how you look at things differently..>> That comment could be made about any religion or belief system in the world. In essence, it says that you have ot believe in christianity in order to believe it. You have to believe and not question Bhuddism, in order to believe it. If I told you that I was starting a religion that prayed to Micheal Jordan(we wouldn't be alone) :-) you would be skeptical. You would ask me how could I treat Air Jordan as divinity. You wouldn't exactly be convinced if I told you that you can't question Mike, just do as it says in the Nike manual, and ask for Mike or St. Phil Knight to enlighten you. You would think I was nuts. Obvioulsy I am not comparing Christianity to the religion of Air-osity. The example may be humorous(I hope), but the logic behind it, is the same. I am not saying that Chrisitanity is illogical. I am saying that the particular answer is not going to make sense to anyone except those who already believe, and that any belief system can say the same thing with the same certainty. Mark
