Excerpting this meaningfully for The Aviary is a job that I'm not up to, this evening. I think I will leave it for one of our more "theologically adept" members to handle. In other words, I'm punting this one, at least until tomorrow. This is a delicate matter, as it must be done with no finger-pointing -- or at least, if fingers are to be pointed, care must be pointed to ensure they are aimed in the proper direction. Frankly, Tammy Bruce would be a perfect person to do the job.
