Hi Darren, A few weeks ago someone posted their reasons why they considered that SDAs are wrong in their keeping of the Sabbath. That started of the various Sabbath postings from both points of view. My intent was to try and do my best to present how I feel about the Sabbath. I see through your eyes how I came across as being judgemental of your views. If that is how I came across to you that way, then I probably came across to a few others that way. I wish to appologize to you and the rest of you. I shall try to make a greater effort to word things so that they present my personal views as such while trying to avoid projecting them as against or anti of somebody elses views. There are also times when I should have let someones opposing view simply get stated and let it go as such, without a posted rebutal - to simply let it go unchallenged, especially if it risks offending somebody. Friend, Dave
