	Not sure I've seen anybody +1 their own post before, is this an indication of dissociative identity disorder? Perhaps, or perhaps he is beginning to question his own belief system. Oh wait, that would be DID wouldn't it? Never mind. ____________

Just a new concept based in creativity. The more ID posts the more we know about him, I enjoy the novel ideas. You act as if the S@H fora are the only places you can find these. This also is a novel idea. At least when these ideas are espoused by people you know offline, there is opportunity for discussion and the finding of common ground. Even friendship. Such possibilities here are few and far between.

	That would not be a quote from Jefferson. Nor is any of the quotes I have posted---random. All have a point pertinent to the subject at hand.
