We have these divine-inspired, human-produced writings, and as we read them, if we do so openly and willingly, sometimes that pure intelligence pours into us and tells us what we need to know.<br /><br />Victor: As much as we often disagree, it's fun to see how often we agree, too.

Thanks for ...I like your post. Thought-provoking.<br /><br />Thanks for the nod too, though I am not sure you want to send people to my blog. What will the neighbors say?<br /><br />My 'discussions' are usually with serious fundies who insist the Bible is 100% the unvarnished word of God.
