You really are not listening t what I say. After all my
arguments about compatibility, the only thing you come up is this
ludicrous idea about me not attaching a Depends line? I fail to see
the point of continuing this debate if that is the case.
Actually, even the fact you came up with such a (IMHO) petty
reason speaks volumes.

All religions have in common the periodical childlike surrender to a
Provider or providers who dispense earthly fortune as well as
spiritual health; some demonstrations of man's smallness by means of
reduced posture and humble gesture, the admission in prayer and song
of misdeeds, of misthoughts, and of evil intentions; fervent appeal
for inner uni- fication by divine guidance; and finally, the insight
that individual trust must become part of the ritual practice of man,
and must become a sign of trustworthiness in the
community. psychologist Erik Erikson
