Ron,

I don't get the concept of 'continuous' from Paul's letter.

Marsha

Ron:
Despite that, they conflict. Drop continuous for now, it's superfluous
to the argument.
if the levels are separate, distinct and discrete, then the statement
" just as every social level is also
> >biological" is inconsistent with the term discrete
as separate and distinct.

If not, please explain how you see those two statements as 
meaning the same thing.
