first of all, I'm sorry for those whose hopes i let down on the title and the potential for wonderful alliteration.
now...
perhaps the two sides of the coin are not always all the options. maybe we get caught up on thinking we know what is right and what is wrong and we miss out on the liberating, life giving, and better (screwed the alliteration again:) way...the third way. I am starting to see how Jesus and his teachings often presented this third way. A way to not vehemently oppose or support such radical, what seems 'black and white' issues that faced the people in that day. The third way was often the way to expose the evil while still allowing room for the evil to turn. A most difficult way which seems to be rooted in a deep love and respect for humanity, all humanity.

i think yours is a good insight. Jesus statements and answers to questions were often quite baffling for everyone around, not just one side.
Ah yes I see Rob Bell spewing out of you like beer out of an Irishman... Good insight...
