Thank you, star! I guess I was having guilt pangs and an" I told you so" was what I needed.
I DO have a good sense of humor. Sometimes I like to stir things up for the sake of conversation. I find that if everyone just agrees with what is the apparent "obviously" correct thing, we sometimes miss some rather important considerations.
For example, during the standoff in Waco, Texas, I asked, "What if David Koresh is the Messiah?"
Whew!!!!! I BARELY outran the lynch mob!! I mean, I didn't actually think that might be the case, but it's important (academically) to at least consider both sides of ANY issue. And, so you know, I'm your average joe, with a wife and two kids and a mortgage. I just like to think about things before coming to a conclusion. Although, generally, I will come to the same conclusion as all those lynch-mobbers.
But, thank you, star, for not bawling me out too bad.
And, amh, while there may be nothing more to say, I still love ya, and you can't stop me!
I'll see ya guys.
