I've tried to write the third post in that last thread half a dozen times now and I just can't get it to say anything worth posting. My original point was that it is nearly impossible to intelligently discuss religion because there are so many, infinite varieties of religious experience (hey, somebody should write a book about that). Well.................. DUH. as my daughter would say. But after I typed out the second post, I couldn't really pin down what I was trying to say, and I still haven't figured it out, so I guess for now I'm just bagging it. Sorry to leave the unfinished thought out there. It seemed fairly important at the time, so maybe I'll figure out a better way to say it eventually and revisit.

alas.
