Yes, that does make sense, Adrienne. It's sort of like the butterfly story

that Agnes shared. It's the challenge that makes us stronger. And sometimes

when someone challenges what we believe it can make that belief stronger as

well.

However, I also understand what you meant about it being wearying when it

happens out here on the list. However, there's always that delete button....

Personally, I don't feel the need to defend my own beliefs to anyone out

here, nor do I have the desire to dispute anyone's beliefs who are different

than mine. But I totally respect the right of those who choose to do so.

in health,
