Thanks for the explanation.  Yes.  Life is difficult...and painful at times.  
And
most definitely not fair.  Bad things do happen to good people.  I think the
best question in times like these is not why? but what next?  Does the
experience make us bitter and defensive?  Or do we rise above the pain and
the hurt and transform it.  The lesson is, the pain you don't transform you
transmit.
 
By the way, Daniel Boone's homestead is less than 10 miles from where
I'm sitting.  It's a beautiful place.  I'm going to make a point of taking the
dog there this weekend.  Thanks for the reminder.

Actually I understood Keating to be talking about God on first hearing his
explanation.  I'm not sure what you mean by the second question.  How do
you understand Other (capital O)?

And it seems to be getting sketchier all the time.
