Tuuka,
Marsha has not presented a good argument for doing that. Perhaps you see something I don't. She is using Western concepts of relativism as far as I can tell. If I ask her a question, she either says she does not understand, or pulls out her megaphone and stars "it is so written.". This is why she reminds me of a fervent Christian.
However, I know what you mean, and I agree with the intent of your post. Marsha is trying to derail MoQ, in my opinion for selfish ego driven reasons. I will help protect MoQ against the heretics :-)
Sent laboriously from an iPhone,
Mark

She is somewhat hostile towards the Western tradition, labeling it is post-modern "mumbo jumbo" or what ever that was. If she ain't doing that anymore (I'm not sure) that's what she was doing earlier.
