		<description>Henry - I am sorry, but I will not be able to do your assignment for you. May God bless your journey of seeking to understand and learn about polity. I would be more than willing to discuss specific questions. Feel free to send me an email from the &quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://thoughtsofresurrection.wordpress.com/about/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;About Me&lt;/a&gt;&quot; page. Thanks!</description>

		<description>Matt - I like the approach that they all grow out of connectionalism. I may work that in to a revision of this work. Thanks for your thoughts!</description>
