Cool! My post is adjacent to John's. I feel... star struck.
Oh for shame, how the mortals put the blame on us gods, for they say evils come from us, but it is they, rather, who by their own recklessness win sorrow beyond what is given... Zeus (1178 BC)

But isn't one of the fundamental aspects of NOMism to do exactly the thing that bothers you? Many NOMs will in some way choose not to disclose their beliefs. A perfect example is while being interviewed for a TR.

Hey John! Thanks for responding!
I hated starting another thread that is publicly discussing you again. I have thought that you must feel like a beach ball at a ball game....being bantered around and punched.....then buoyed up only to be swatted at and batted around some more. Do you just stop reading it after a while?
Anyway, I'm glad you are making decisions based on what you feel is best for you and your family. Good for you!
