Here's what I wrote:
"Personally, I think something a bit
more compassionate might be more appropriate --
certainly in the context of Pynchon's works, which
show deep insight and understanding for human beings
and the various factors that lead them to search for
and find God and other expressions of the non-material
realities of the universe. "

If you don't see the difference between what I wrote and your restatement,
let me know and I'll explain.

Here's a clue:  I didn't say "P's works are helpful to"  which you pasted
onto part of what you quote from me.  I said Pynchon shows insight into
why humans search for God and other experessions of the non-material
realities of the universe.


P.S. If you don't believe in the existence "non-material realities of the
universe", how do you explain love, friendship, trust?
