Robby, please don't unsubscribe. There are religious and non-religious
people on this list, but we're not trying to convert each other or pass
judgement on each other regarding that stuff. There's plenty to talk
about on this list outside of (or with respect for) religion and your
comments have been quite interesting - I hope you'll reconsider. I think
you've misinterpreted Bill's comments ("blessed" is a figure of speech,
kinda like "darn" but nicer), and I think Bryan got a little defensive
as a result of your reaction. A simple email crossing of wires. You may
be right that we come from wildly different belief frameworks, but that
doesn't mean our discussions can't be fruitful.

Please stick around - you definitely haven't said all you can say about
this broad topic!
