><>...Good morning John...><> When I wrote, "in the case of conflict see Acts 5:29", I meant it to be for a time when, in general, a servant of God might have a question as to what was right or wrong concerning their loyalties to our Father. It was not at all directed to you or anyone in particular. You wrote: It is these peoples right to participate as long as they don't infringe upon the rights of others or harm their own membership from a legal aspect. i.e. assaults, frauds, sexual abuse etc. Therein lies the difficulty. Indeed John! Therin lies the difficulty for all of society, in all walks of life, in each and every group, and also concerning the individual citizen. That is why a civilized society must have laws. It is those laws that we look to for proper administration of, and equal access to. And those laws, when broken, have consequences. We, as a law abiding society, look to the law for proper redress. And God bless America, when all the wheels of justice are turning properly,(which I might add is 99% of the time) the innocent are protected and/or compensated. The law was made to protect the righteous, and praise God it still does! Have to go for now John, talk to you again later my friend. Shalom...><>

Excerpt from "The Associated Press" January 24/99 Aricle entitled "Pope tells Christians to build better society" "Millions of Mexicans, who with flickering candles and yellow-and -white Vatican flags showered the pontiff with an adoration he says he misses when back in Rome, lined the streets of his route and packed the area surrounding the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Inside the Pope prayed to the virgin's image, which the church says appeared on the cloak of an Aztec peasant in 1531, helping make the European church accessible to Indians in the Americas... He drew cheers by urging churches throughout the Americas to honour the Virgin of Guadalupe on Dec. 12..." Exodus 20 4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: 5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: ...
