Re: a political being

Hi Jim,

Actually, that was an expression of indifference, which is why I kept out of
the conversation. And, though I did think the history-of-text stuff was
somewhat interesting, all the hocus-pocus god story stuff leaves me with the same
feeling I had as a kid watching the tribesmen dance around the fire on National
Geographic specials. It might be anthropologically interesting, but I just
don't see any need for it myself.

And, since you asked, I find the the question of the relationship between
language, rhetoric, and politics to be a very complicated one and probably not
best discussed or even usefully discussed in this sort of forum. So I'm happy
to let that go and just reaffirm that there's plenty of political action
happening between holes (and on the golf course as well).

All the best,

--John (recalling the old joke about the guy calling the doctor after his
wife is injured between the first and second hole....)
