 I just wanted to mention, Bill, by this latest news item, I now see what you 
 meant by your earlier post re Vatican II.  Pretty impressive developments, 
 really, don't you think?:

Absolutely, Tim. If we stick to basics, Word and Eucharist, all of us are 
pretty much in agreement. The though that comes to me is that Jesus made sure 
of his promise to be with his church, despite our attempts to put our group 
above the others in which all kinds of factions and nationalism substituted 
for the real faith. Yet, Jesus remains in every community of believers who 
hold to his demand for the two greatest commandments and the Sermon on the 
Mount. This is why that I think it is so counter productive now when any 
Christian group thinks they have the 'true' message of Jesus. Thank God, 
Jesus overrides this nonsense and come to sincere people everywhere, just as 
he comes to Muslims who truly love God.

Peace

Bill
