I'm sorry, Dor, I still don't understand what you mean.

-- How did I make a Freudian slip, which is an error in speech caused by the unconscious mind?

-- how exactly did I insult Jesus by repeating the mandate: "Accept me as your personal savior or suffer an eternity of agony"? I ask you again, is that not a central tenet of traditional christianity?

-- the bible outlines all those laws, and then declares them null and void due to the newer "love thy neighbor" rule? Why include them at all, then? To show us our near miss?

-- You think my problem is that I have too much faith? Faith in what? Why is it a problem?

Thanks for addressing my questions. Cylon, this might not be the direction you thought your question would lead, sorry. But it does address your request for insights!
