Very interesting, David. I agree with you and call this understanding "theological instinct," a tacit knowing in a spiritual context. I would like to bring this back up for discussion sometime as well. Bill PS I am very "rushed" at present, with other responsibilities to meet. Perhaps in a week or two I will be able to devote more time to our worthy discussions on TT.
