Peter, List: Is it possible that what is missing from this philosophical discussion is simple human compassion?
The Holy Family were destitute in a foreign land. in parallel sentence structure for the image (icon) without regard to the facts not stated of the two images, The refuges are destitute in a foreign land. Of course, the concept human compassion is seldom an acceptable argument in semeiotics, or is it?
