Glenn,
I've got a problem, for facts don't change. The expression of a fact may
change, if only that we put it in English and others may state it in
other languages. What people think are facts are continuously changing,
however. There is a problem of misunderstanding in that facts are not
usually expressed completely. Thus an individual's statements "I'm
overdrawn" and "I have a large balance" are contradictory of the same
account the same day, but not of different accounts or different days.

Below brought me into contact with some of John Maynard Keynes sayings.
I found this one which seems to be ignored by most christian
apologists--something my PARABLE was griping about. Keynes said:
"When the facts change, I change my mind. What do you do, sir? "
It is precisely this inability on all sides of the apologetical question
that drives me mad. Facts don't matter, beliefs do.
