Hmm, I think that's overly picky, b/c my example was 'studying the skies' -- I think of 'religious experiences' etc. as a broad feild, not a single thing, and we do know facts such as this percentage of people claim to have seen a deity, that number to have stigmata etc. (I could look up the actual percentages if you wish, but I don't think that will really make a difference to you... :} ) Debbi who just had a dose of chocolate and nuts as "Thornton's Choccies," which someone brought back from London :) __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
