Jim, I did not want to reply, but when I read the old "Father, why hast thou forsaken me." argument, an argument which many people make, I just had to respond.
"Father, why hast thou forsaken me." was not a question, it was a paraphrasing of Psalm 22, which begins: "My God, my God, why hast Thou fosaken me." and goes on to describe prophesies which would be fulfilled on the cross. It's a passage the disciples would have known well. Give a read to Psalm 22 and see if that isn't obvious.
You've got to know your limitations. I don't know what your limitations are. I found out what mine were when I was twelve. I found out that there weren't too many limitations, if I did it my way. -Johnny Cash

"Defeatist Pessimists and Rose Colored Glasses Optimists are lonely companions, victims even. Both ideologies imply predestined outcomes, and therefore breed inactivity in its victims. Inaction is the only sure way to lose at anything in life. All positive action guarantees at least a fighting chance." -Brian Austin Whitney
