	After reading Tim's original article, and Ken Nichol's reply, I must
say that I find myself in near-total agreement with Tim.  His statements clearly
articulate a position that I've held for some time, and his well-chosen words
say it more clearly than perhaps I ever have.

	I felt Ken's reply was a wonderful example of what Mike Huybensz was
talking about in his article on "positive feedback"; I was hoping for a more
reasoned response from "the other camp", and I was disappointed by Ken's
avoidance of the issues; it seemed as though he preferred to answer Tim's
arguments with platitudes and circularly-reasoned statements about the
lowliness of man, and the elevation of god--and such positions have never
been terribly convincing to me, at least.

	Wherever you are Tim, thank you.
