i want to comment on the unfortunate course this thread appears to have taken, keeping in mind that i'm a complete newbie to this board...
it's obvious to me that the conflict here is not going to be resolved amongst the parties to it, and it is not going to be resolved amongst the parties to it up in my head, either...for they have, in the not so distant past, argued long, hard and incessantly (not to mention OBsessively) over either position...
i've mostly made peace with it, though. i just let the opposites be. i've turned it over, ironically, to God, for it's too big for me to handle!
anymore, when someone makes an assertion in the form of an article of religious faith, i don't argue with them...because more often than not, i don't disagree...i see value in just about every article of faith that is sincere...
but i'll be the first to admit to you, it's been a long, long road.
