Hmm,

I've been thinking about this thread, knowing that I need to join in, but wondering what to say that won't get me censored (not that I'm concerned about the censoring, per se, but rather the lack of grace that leads to it).

It is good to think deeply of such things, and it is good to speak with others about it. I have learned years ago that it is best not to delve into deep questions unless the parties agree to spend the time to hear each other and to reply in thought. So, about all I can say is that I encourage all people to think the questions of deeper thought about all matters, for to live without exercising our mental capacity is a shame.
