[ So my dearest friend hosepipe, when did you decide to be given over to the proposition of "moral equivalency" in arguments that purport to deal with essential Truth? ]

Some not believing "essential truth" may be NOT BE from a negative motive.. Could be they must believe as they do according to the 2nd reality they live in.. I do not fault them for that..

The competition between truth and UNtruth proves the truth.. and challenges the UNtruth, always.. I believe it is a Holy Drama.. And Free Republic highlights that drama.. After all whom has total truth among us.. I appreciate the reparte'...

Almost universally I agree with you(so far), at least that that I can understand that you transcribe.. Sometimes you go over my head.. Spiritual merging might cure that(BookOFWorms).. but that is for a future time.. Same with me to you but I appreciate your spirit..

Morals observed, is observed, in different ways.. which is a drama all its own.. Free Republic has been beautifully preserved (by Jim Robinson) to allow that drama.. I relish his wisdom.. It takes a boatload of UNtruth to cover up ONE truth.. As the EVOS (and other closet liberals) prove daily..

Could be they must believe as they do according to the 2nd reality they live in.. I do not fault them for that..

I try very hard myself not to "fault them" for that. But to the extent that I value Truth above all else, I find forgiveness very difficult under the circumstances. Fortunately, I am no man's judge.... That's God's job.

May the Lord forgive me my shortcomings.

FreeRepublic really is a "microcosm" in its diversity of opinion, isn't it? And JimRob affords hospitality to all points of view -- provided the respondents observe the rules of civil, rational, good-faith debate....

Thanks so much for writing, dear hosepipe!
