Uh . . . are you objecting to the 7 Heavenly Virtues essays I've been
doing?  (I can't think what else that has appeared on the list lately
might have prompted this outburst). I think I am very aware that not
everyone on this list is a Christian.  Because I explained at the onset
that these essays are meant to be more inclusive than just for
Christians--3 of the virtues are taken from christian theology, true,
but 4 are taken from the writings of the ancient Greeks, and I have
tried to include secular as well as religious thought.

The point of the 7 Deadly Sins and the 7 Deadly Virtues essays is to
assess Harry's growth as a moral person, and I, for one, believe that
people of many faiths, as well as people who consider themselves to be
atheists, can be moral people.

Um, if you object to me being "at it again" then simply delete any
message you see from me unread.  I think other people on this list,
however, do enjoy the essays.
