    Platt,

    Yet again, you twist the subject,
    by responding only to a lighthearted aside in parenthesis,
    (a point which MSH also made incidentally, but not in parenthesis)

    So I repeat my actual point, which you avoided ...

    Quote
    Aha, now I spot the problem. You say your purpose is
    "to bring to light and examine basic assumptions, and to figure out what's
    the best morality for a nation to follow UNTIL the MOQ is widely known and
    accepted."

    Then you are probably doomed to repeat the philosophical and theological
    arguments of the last 5000 years.
    Good luck, (no, seriously, good luck to you) but please don't expect me to
    treat any of your contributions as aimed at understanding and making
    valuable use of the MoQ.
