Oh, perfectly clear... you do a good job of smashing peanuts with sledgehammers. :-) Wasn't trying to be argumentative, I was adding supplemental background. :-)

Now I await the inevitable response in someone's mind: But God's thinking is far above your man-made reasoning.

Unfortunately (and this applies to all belief systems, not just religion) logical fallacies & excuses ("God's way is not our way" "Communism has never been -really- practiced") is a mechanism for many people to avoid uneasy questions.

Sorry about that. I sometimes get into "teacher" mode, and in my attempt to avoid a protracted back-and-forth, I try to get it all in one post.

Yes, I could see that. Nor was I being argumentative. I was just being -- uh -- maybe a little pedantic? I hope not.

Cheers.
