if the relevance of the original authorship can be shown to be affective to the verity
of the statement, k. it cvan get duiscussed among those who would cite him, as did
Sepehr Manuchehri...

otherwise i return to the relevance ogf the statement as it applies to the question
asked originally.
"O listeners, know that the purpose of telling the story of this person and others
like him is to give encouragement to the sympathisers in order to arise in the service
of His cause. It also serves to punish the neglectful by reminding that this Cause was
not futile, "
now there we might have a working beginnings of a definition of a purpose to a great
deal of stuff asked about by the wqustioner impolicitly, by the lovely cast iron
rococos of david's analyses, adn by things that are out there on the streets, in the
alleys, in the hackeysack games that played at nashville.
somwehre there's a cite from the beloved Guardian that goes something like, ask not
what u can do for the Faithm, ask what It needs done.
i would offer to the vast pool of learning and thoughful knowledge on this list that
the above quote whether from whoever or some other guy,
points to that answer.
"surely He wants them all, becuase He made them all."

"3 a.m. in las vegas, who is hanging around;
9 a.m. in manhattan, dust swirls around."
