The point of my response was that the two words mean rather different things, that they are not synonyms; ergo, his need to clarify what he is asking. In some cases it's safe to assume the person's meaning, but with a potential boobytrap like supporting or condoning "horrors," I'm not going to assume anything nor step blissfully onto land mines.
Wow, you claim to be able to make sense of biblical verse but you can't manage to understand what EvF meant to say?
You know completely what he meant, you just know that if you answer truthfully you are going to 'step on land mines' and you cant' avoid it, thus the dodge.
