John, I see your frustration and it's understanable. But there are many users in the world are using the Tomcat in the past years. How come you become an unique one making such comment.
I suggest you calm down and allocate a plenty of time to get the picture in terms of what you need to have and what are the procedures you need to go through. When every pieces of puzzle come to one picture you can say, "Ah~" Note that first, you need to know the differences between JSP and Servlet from the very beginning to the point they executed. Then, you will see the reasons why and hopely realized your prematured comments.
