Hey, Deb. If everyone lived according to that same proposition, there'd be a lot less crime and virtually no wars. I continue to applaud your authenticity and your commitment to search for truth. At the same time, I continue to challenge you to adopt a standard for accepting anything into your belief set. At this point, I think you're on the cusp of demanding that whatever you believe stand the test of reason and logic, and I encourage you to adopt it as your standard. That means that whatever beliefs you've accepted up to this point in time must be subjected to the test of reason and logic, and must be accepted or rejected accordingly.
