Rev. Blume:

anything"?
 
Me:
Come on Sir, Give me more credit than that. :-)  This:

Rev. Blume:

it is

Me:
Not at all.  Once I have found the perfectly logical and
reasonable explaination that covers all the facts, I need
CONCLUSIVE AND OVERWHELMING proof to sway me.  
 
Old me:

Rev. Blume:

Me:
I am not exactly sure how to tactfully answer this.  It
speaks of the 
firmament above (sky) and the separation of the water below
(seas and rivers and lakes) and the water above, the
clouds.  I have seen this model of this conopy and there
are STAGGERING problems that IMHO completely rule it out. 
We can discuss this at a later time.

Rev. Blume
