Which is why I believe that discusing this stuff, outside of historical contex, is a fools errand and is simmply stroking the stroke master paster.

Why do you ask BTW?
I disagree with this. Marty knows what he knows very well. I do not think he knows as much as he thinks he does (he has a very narrowly focus pool of knowledge) as opposed to Kerry who I think has a very broad based pool of knowledge (seems to know quite a bit about Christianity, Islam and other beliefs). Kerry and other seem to approach the issue from a logical and educational stand point. Marty has a holier than though condescending attitude that says he knows all and if you do not agree with his POV you are wrong and ignorant.

Arguing with Kerry is an exchange (at least that has been my experience) arguing with Marty is like arguing with a brick wall. I stopped a while back and reading some of his posts here reminded me why.
