hmm...what's wrong with simplicity and childlikeness?  those are 
increasingly becoming two values that i'm striving to base my actions on 
(note that there is a tremendous difference b/t being childlike and 
childish!)...  although, quite simply and childlike, i believe the reason 
anyone would hurt someone else is that we're all ultimately selfish people.  
of course, i believe that because of fact that i view the world through the 
lens of my faith, which happens to embrace the idea that humanity is sinful 
and in need of redemption.  my interpretation of otr lyrics from a christian 
standpoint has nothing to do with a desire to "argue religion," but is 
simply a natural response because of my faith, just as every single person 
on this list can't help but view the world through their own lens...  but 
i'm just a bit confused, dear bruce--were you implying that the weaving of 
christianity into the moth discussion has been hurting people?  never mind 
my disjointed thoughts--i just got back from a very long day of sitting in a 
training room, absorbing far too much information for one day...
