Now, like the parable... there might be a mote or a beam... but no mud.
;o)
In fact, it appears that there are plenty of beams to go around here. It doesn't seem that anyone has one clear view. Well, there IS one Person who I know has a pretty clear picture of this whole mess. But I don't think He will be posting to the forum.
And folks... please try and REPLY to the correct post you are referencing. It makes it a whole lot easier to comprehend what you're trying to say.
And I do have to say one more thing... regardless of what side you are on you've got to contemplate this... or even chuckle at yourself like I did:
This weekend I showed some of these "battle posts" to my wife and tried to explain a little bit about this very interesting "discussion" we are all involved with. Who the players are, and how it tends to just draw you in. Please keep in mind that she HAS visited the springs with me... once.
She said, after I tried to tell her a bit of the story, "For crap sakes! It's just a hole in the ground with hot water flowing out!" "What's the point?"
All I could say was, "Very perseptive of you dear."
|Who was it that sang that old song? "Go ahead and hate your neighbor, go ahead and cheat a friend. Do it in the name of Heaven, you can justify it in the end."
Remember the "Treasure" that was opened after the bloody battle between the mountain and the valley people?
"Peace on Earth, was all it said."
