I'd like to make sure I understand and would ask you to clarify your point but don't wish to hijack the thread. I wonder if that's a contradiction in terms; the evolution of ideas/religious interpretation and the absolute authority enshrined in scripture as the word of God? Suffice to say that I believe in the separation of church and State, which means that I also don't hold with worshipping a dictator as in N.Korea. Neither do I agree with the catholic church blackmailing British MP's to vote a certain way in parliament. I think it is their right to vote with their conscience without being told what it should be by some Bishop in a fancy hat. Sometimes these human rights are required fair and moral protection, I think, from the surrounding culture but I agree with the author that they have now gone overboard. Sent at: 2008 09 06
