I respect your view, but I think we'll have to agree to disagree. I have spent a considerable amount of time studying the texts of the major world religions, and have taken that task very seriously. This is not to say I'm correct, but only that I didn't arrive at my view without many years of intense thought.

Thanks. I'm fond of my interpretation also.

I think your perspective is very rational, and I do not think everyone should follow some religious path, it is just the path I've chosen.
