but do you think that the unrighteous behavior was
stopped and now that's why we're not punished
similarly?  baal worship takes a little different form
as do some perversions i guess: but how is the world
any different now?

would this come down to a notion of "god's people"--i
dunno?

yeah, i'm with you regarding general attitude.  but
"in general," instead of questioning in a
confrontational, accusatory manner i think i am
supposed to seek understanding.  so hear i am :)
