Dear Jason, read again the form of my argument - I was not arguing either
for or against - I was maintaining a theological nuetrality. The argument
over textual translation must take account of many aspects - BUT I WILL
ADMIT that I question his motives.

Perhaps this has gone past list protocol? I don't think this is a messianic
list, so please, let's maintain ourselves. We are talking about the TEXT,
not trying to argue for a "son of God" who was "ressurected" (sp). Back on
task, eh?

Thanks,
Jason
