Great conversation

You were doing so well.. until You used the dreaded term "judeo-Christian" . . . that totally took me out of the conversation. But I guess boomers going to boomer, so.. Just a shame that the interviewer used it again later on, too.. *sigh* Interesting stuff, anyway. Appreciated. Cheers.
