Praise, I haven't really mentioned this before, but as a general rule, something you post here blesses me almost daily, from the practical to the downright deep and spiritual. thanks:-)! Hardiman, thanks for adding your scholarly insight as well. Zeb, JimD, Liz, Clinton, Gary and all, everyone's thoughtful and interesting comments have made what could have turned quicky into a melee quite a cool thread!!

Even tho I have seen a few squabbles here an there when the religion question pops up , overall Mudcatters seem to be fair and respectful about things---I like being able to read all sides of the issues without strife! It makes sense to me that these things should be discussed here, people who love folk music are by nature spiritual folks of some sort and are certainly not the type of people to avoid issues!

Thanks all for your input,what a wonderful place:-)!
