Well, this is fascinating. It is self-evidently true for you. It is not self-evidently true for me. So in your world, and this is the dangerous thing, it appears that you are willing and even feel compelled to declare that that which is self-evident to you to be self-evident for everyone. While I am not stating that you are a fanatic, this is the logic and MOs used by fanatics world wide and through the ages. > > > It needs clarification by > > > > Wilson -- which I assume he will provide today. > > > > > > I'm sure he will, yes. > > > > Yes, so lets wait till he does instead of putting words in his > > mouth. > > Nobody put words in his mouth.

It is arrogance and even perverse to state emphatically what another person meant, if there is ambiguity, without consulting them. You KNOW what Wilson meant. Jerry Farwell KNOWs what Jesus meant. GWB KNOWS what God meant. Bob Brigante KNOWS what MMY meant. Peter KNOWS what Krishna meant. Si'ites KNOW what Mohammad meant but Sunnis also KNOW what Mohammad meant -- and they are different. Pat Roberson KNOWS what the founding fathers meant. Critic x KNOWs what TS Elliot meant in the Four Quartets. JoeUFO KNOWS what the Crop Cirles mean. Dick Cheny KNOWS what al-Quada meant. Brown KNOWS what the DiVinci code meant. I am bent over in laughter.

Because it is obvious to you, does not make it obvious to everyone. Your defense for this proposition appears no more sphisticated than "nah nah, everyone who doesn't see things like me is STUPID!"
