1.  Can't anyone take a joke?  What pollution?  And where's the freedom
of comment we all value so much here?
2.  I'm still reading and waiting for the arguing about the history and
various interpretations to stop and the botherhood to begin.
3.  Brenda - you are in a web, of your own making.  Break out.  Go hug a
tree.  Listen to the wind.  The "truth" is not only found in words!  Let
it gooooooo.  I'm sending you a hug, as I've been there, done that.
4.  Daniel - you may have started a debate, but what you got was
confrontation.  It's unfinished business and I think the ball's in your
court.
5.  After reading all the postings, I re-read the last two issues of
Theos-World.  Sanity.
Love and Light
