Does that make them a religion unto themselves? I do not consider the original quote to be about religion, HOWEVER ... my statement has now inadvertently become a statement on religion, so although I didn't bring it up, I apologize. Oh, and by the way ... I'd like to say that was a great way to welcome a new member. |
