Having come from a strong Baptist family background I've had a lot of bible study in my past.  I know what you mean, the bible doesn't always make sense.  When I have pointed this out to the "believers" their usual response is "you have to have faith".  The best definition of faith that I've have heard is faith is believing in something that you know can't logically, rationally be true.  The book I was reading was a historical novel about Japan when it first opened to western trade.  I got about a third of the way through it and got bored with it.  I'm now reading a book by Clive Cussler about discovery and recovery of shipwrecks.  It's a new thing for him, writing a non-fiction book for his thing in the past was his "Dirk Pit" fiction series, adventure stories that always had a shipwreck recovery theme.  "Raise the Titanic" was the first.  They are quite entertaining, I've read most of them.  Well I'll be leaving early today and will be off until January 3.  I will check my mail every other day or so.  Until later, Larry
