What does any of this have to do with seeing and being infallible?
The conversation had to do with, essentially, semantics - a debate as to the meaning of a word. I have determined that such a conversation is, in fact, utterly pointless - nothing more than an attempt to form a consensus, wherein we either agree or disagree. Silly, really. Faith is a word - a series of grunts & clicks. Belief is a word - a series of grunts and clicks.
I think we all have better things to do than debate the precise meaning of words.
That's what I *see*. Doesn't matter if we agree or not. Who cares?
That's why forums in general become tedious. No real "work" is being done - just a lot of rattling of the words, reminiscent of a scene from an old Monty Python skit.
