Hi Mr. Editor
Is your name really "Cliff Walker?" If it is, you have no idea how truly named you are!
My name, John Beck, on the other hand, means John = Given by God(English), and Beck = Things having to do with water(German).
I have been perusing your site, and I noticed you posted my letter to you! Now I am published again, and I hope all who read that letter come to an understanding that spiritual eyes are necessary to come to an understanding(however precarious)of God.
What you do is attempt to derive from the sculpture the sculptor. No matter how hard one may try, that one cannot know Da Vinci by staring at his Mona Lisa.
I still think you have never tried to find God.
John Beck
