Kari, you have the word 'probably' but not with respect to "Mark's was the first" and "the Gospels were written 30-70 years after Jesus died."  As I was writing about what I had mentioned to you before, I meant of course you won't look at my probabilities. Mine. If you did look, you obviously didn't look very closely. As for the rest, I was just writing about something interesting to me to which you are under no obligation to respond. The themes of Love and coming Kingdom are valid and worthwhile spiritual expressions.
