What a wonderful question, Bushi! And on my birthday, too. And the Feast of Saint Thomas, where precisely the question is posed. And, like Pilate's question, leaves us to find our own answer.
I ask myself whether theology is not part of tactics rather than strategy and, thus, should indeed be kept separate.
This endless thread seems to have a short lifespan. It should automatically be gone within a few days. How cool is that?
In fact, if the OP would delete his original query: What is the point of this endless thread? Is it is some Zen trick? The whole sub-thread would be deleted.
