I tend to agree--in fact I agree quite a lot. Even though I hold similar religious beliefs, I didn't find this piece particularly inspiring. However, I can't help but think if this listserve is to provide a forum for PD issues and also to serve as a vent for some deeply held beliefs (which I see here all the time), why can't this be just one more--and we'll ignore and delete whatever we want--as we do anyway to other issues not useful to our personal situation. Sometimes I think we sacrifice richness of individual character and get an insipid, milque toast something in exchange.
