I agree: very beautifully said!

There seems to be a lot of overlap between this thread and The Confederation thread. There were several mentions of Oahspe in that thread, and I responded with the following, which I am now moving to this thread, where it belongs:
Is the Council past polarity? Or does it include STS-biased (even if no longer polarized) entities as well? Could Oahspe have passed for the purpose of teaching STS entities? Now there's a thought! Does the Council 'pass' STS missions or only STO missions?
If STS missions are approved by Council, with no show of favoritism, then indeed the channeled work might have passed, full of what would be considered distortion to an STO reader. But to an STS reader...it might be right on! Are we not assuming that the Council passes only STO works? Do we have a reason to make that assumption? We know Ra/Q'uo are biased to STO, but do we know that about the Council? Aren't they past polarity, as are Ra/Q'uo? But not on an STO mission like Ra/Q'uo and therefore obliged to pass STS missions as well?
Quantum, what do you think of my suggestion that Oahspe was passed because of its service to the STS community? Since you've read the book, I am interested in your opinion on this. I think my idea offers a valid possibility as to the whole point of this thread.
