Interesting thread. I am a long-time MacFixIt reader who has always enjoyed the 'adult' demeanor and intelligent responses proffered, and am very glad FineTunedMac has 'arisen from the ashes' so to speak.
Perhaps that's not a good analogy for this thread, but whatever. I was following this thread's discussion with interest, as I have always had the tendency (much to my mother's chagrin) of questioning 'faith-based' convictions, especially when they conflicted with the beliefs of other, 'faithful' people. I find myself, now pushing retirement age, more attuned to Tacit's view of the 'universe'. However, I appreciate a respectful exchange of ideas, which this thread seemed to be, until now. Hal Itosis' reference to 'Mengle' was unwarranted and disrespectful, IMHO, and represents and all-to-common slide into the emotional morass we seem to find in discourse today involving controversial issues. I'm saddened and disappointed.
