John - If I'd looked at the name at the top of your post, I would have damned you with more fulsome praise, since I've always found your contributions to be thoughtful, and to express a reasonableness and a moderation that are often in short supply around here.

And I wouldn't have mocked your religious beliefs if I'd really been able to comprehend that they actually ARE your beliefs - as you indicate they are, to some extent. To be honest, I just couldn't quite believe it; otherwise, I would have expressed myself more diplomatically.
