KT,



This is moving along rather smoothly.



"Would you agree that interpretation is all we have?"

Well personally speaking yes and no because I do "know" a lot of things and somethings are a "belief"



"So you are saying that this person hasn't really done their own homework? They are just going with the flow of what the majority seems to hold as being true?"



Quite possibly, or even worse. A clandestine effort to mislead folks that have an undying love for the Almighty.



When you say "the bigger sense of Truth" to me, that means the world external to me that I spend all day interpreting.



Or accepting.



How do you propose to go about accomplishing this? If what one believes is truth, it should correspond to reality. If there is no way to test it then it should be relegated to "belief" or "faith" and not "truth".



This I "know" is accomplished through understanding of their message and then their deeds. Deeds are very overlooked when it comes to things of this nature. Some do as they say--others don't.



7. Remember, my goal is not to dispell any belief or "truth" of anyone or even God's word. But quite the opposite; to recognize and discuss the abuse of what is truth and the acceptance of such interpretations.



Ok, I am almost certain that that is exactly what I've been saying. The immediate problem, for me anyway, is what point of reference to use. So, how do you propose to accomplish this?



Through acceptance to a large degree. It would be a very intricate task but, revelation of folks whose motives are that contrary to good will will be exposed through the Almighty--exactly how? I am unsure. But to just recognize this crap when it is heading your way is warning enough.
