How does reading "Core Doctrines" allow someone else to do their growing for
them?  If it weren't for the "Core Doctrines" of mathematics I would think
you'd have a problem doing simple mathematics.  I have the feeling you
wouldn't have figured it out on your own <wink>  That's how each generation
evolves, they learn from the one before them, many times through books.

For someone who is ascending through the process of enlightenment so
successfully, you seem to be stumbling a bit by making the sarcastic and
snide comments to those who don't hold your point of view.  You seem to have
a problem with reading what people write, that must be why you misread, or
don't read, what I say and respond anway <grin,jab,jab>.

Don't be offended if I don't "prostrate" myself before you in the near
future ;-)
