has offered many discussions on the relationship between secure computing and religious interpretation.

Through the course of this writing, Bill Carlson has often lent a friendly ear and offered many useful suggestions. Ed Dolph has always been there to offer his support. Last and most, I must recognize the incredible patience and support from my wife, Becky.

Thanks to Our Reviewers

In order to help us in our interdisciplinary enterprise, we published in November, 2007, a limited edition of this book (ISBN 0-9801821-0-7) that we submitted to a panel of reviewers of various backgrounds and expertise. While we do not construe their review and subsequent comments as an endorsement of the assertions and conclusions that we draw nor as an endorsement by the organizations with which they are affiliated, we definitely owe them a debt of gratitude in their helping us in our attempts to build a better argument and in their correcting many of our miscomprehensions.

That said, the deficiencies that remain in the book are ours alone.
