Although I've had a private message with Quix on this and I would apologize to any who thought my comment earlier was a negative reaction I was really just reacting (then) to the enourmity of it all. It is just too complex and big for me to grasp. But a few moments ago, I had a strong thought on this: It says in the Bible that My ways are not your ways. My thought are not your thoughts. I think it is the height of hubris to think that just because we have come so far in technology from the time of Jesus that we can ever hope to approach the level of God Almighty in the dissection by matematics of his word. HIS LIVING WORD.

So, although I mean no disrespect if you give credence to this....ummmm theory....I hereby pass on getting involved in necromancy.
