I answered your question on page 10 of Sandra Day O'Conner on Separation of Church and State. I thought you disappeared. If you are going to challenge people to answer your questions why then do you refuse to answer them.
Also, if you do decide to answer I am going in the hospital tomorrow and will be there about a week so will answer when I get back. If you hadn't disappeared we could have settled this long ago...
I responded to your post in Sandra Day O'Conner. Try and refute it. I found you had several errors. Comparing the 42 rules of the Egyptian Maat to the 66 books of the Bible was ludicrous. Here is the listing of the books of the Bible you to which you compared the 42 rules of Maat which are to be obeyed by the dead. Are you really that ignorant about what the Bible contains. It became painfully obvious you were arguing in ignorance!!
