McGrath, I beg to differ on the inclusiveness bit. I think that there are enough people (including many men) in the churches (or at least in those churches that don't look to Falwell and Robinson for guidelines on how when and what to repent of) who are genuinely put off by the use of "man" (or even "mankind") to mean "homoj" that this truly needs redressing. As to the other point, you're all correct in pointing out that most of what I was calling "archaic" is merely formal. Anyhow, thanks, you all. Be sure to look at my hymnic braggadocio, too.
