    Heavens forbid, let's not question the "supremacy of the intellectual
    level." After all, that's straight from the MOQ.

    Didn't I just read somewhere that "reliance on the MOQ for biblical
    certainties is telling," and that it's stupid to "demand that all ideas be
    supported by literal and direct reference to the MOQ"?

    Oh, now I remember. That particular criticism was posted recently by none
    other than my good friend MSH.

    Reminds me of an old Injun saying, "He speaks with forked tongue." :-)
