I went through a period sometime recently where I was a little too beligerent when it
came to the discussion of religion. I have met some fine people who I admire that have their religious beliefs inform their behavior in positive ways. If I have offended any of these people, I apologize profusely.


Why Frank, I am not sure what to say.... I certainly appreciate that you said this, and publicly too (which is why I am responding to it publicly). I was offended, and I really wondered what bug you had up your butt about it, because until the surprising posts you reference above, I had always had so much respect for you that I can't even say.... and your post now, above, fulfills what I might have expected from you, and your change of view is deeply welcome. And of course, though we have never met, I accept your apology; I look forward to making your acquaintance some day through music.
