Digest urth.v029.n031

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

	Perhaps this also: We cannot change ourselves. The Increate must do it to
us. We must be acted upon by Him, which is what the New Sun and the Flood
are all about. Only He can deliver humanity from "Egyptian bondage,"
through His agents. We are doomed unless He acts. Vodalus thinks he can act
and do it, but he's wrong.=20
