Glenn, the problem is that you are the pastor here, the doctor, the representative of the religious establishment. In other words, you are the religious leader. Marlin appears to be more like the woman at the well, perhaps. So your analogy seems to apply in the opposite way of what you meant. Btw, if I get some time, I would be happy to straighten you out on the Greek for being called Christian. Strong has a point to make, but he has misled you. Peace be with you.
