Most impressed by Dr Whaley's comments.

First hitting on the faith which to me is related to soul, two pretty hard things to comprehend and easily accept.

He reminds me of Thomas Huxley's famous word: ""skepticism is the highest of duties; blind faith the one unpardonable sin"". And in as much as I can name authors who only say good things about faith, I will remind the reader of this interesting word of Dan Brown, in the Da Vinci Code : "Faith in the world is based on fabrications. Its definition is the acceptance of that which we imagine to be true, that which we cannot prove...

Then at the end with the SOLUTION to the problem using ALL OUT WAR as the proper response. I admdit that I have not gone that far but will tend to go along. And since I like thginking outside of the box, when it comes to a solution, I will remember that the best one may not be the obvious one, We need to often try the unlikely solution amd leave behind old solutions.
