I'd like to go into this a little too, perhaps off list as I think we'll
all get along better if we limit this discussion to how it applies to our
poetry or the poetry we read. I find that discussions of religion or
non-religion quickly degenerate into unpleasantness when believers and non
or other believers...well, any way, I have some Higher Power thoughts that
might interest. Not atheist exactly but not believing either...rob.
