Avrahm -

You had a wise teacher. Using your post as a guide and thinking about what
has been written, I probably should have laughed some of this off in my
heart instead of defending my opinions.

Thanks for your thoughtful post.

"If I were to try to read, much less answer, all the attacks made on me,
this shop might as well be closed for any other business. I do the very
best I know how - the very best I can; and I mean to keep doing so until
the end. If the end brings me out all right, what is said against me won't
amount to anything. If the end brings me out wrong, 10 angels swearing I
was right would make no difference."
