(By the way? I find that religious blogs are often extremely superstitious about Post # 66. Quite often certain folks let that post remain vacant for longer than usual - waiting for someone else to step into it. Suggesting some kind of in-group behavior.

Particularly these are parts that find evil, the "devil," in elements religion itself.)
