You should also note, that your position is a mirror image, except that you use your belief that you fully understand what the scriptures are saying as your own "knowledge claim." The only disagreement I have with your post is the subtley incendiary nature of the title, which implies that *I* claim special knowledge. I am working daily to remove the I, or more precisely, the "i" and replace it with a singular perception of Christ. I say that there is no Christian practice, to date, to accomplish this, but this is my own opinion, and it doesn't really matter to me if I'm wrong. You at least, have nothing superior to the practice that I have learned, and that's all that counts to me. Peter
