Dear Dr, although I do not currently share this dark view of yours there once was a time when I was fully thus subscribed. It is a difficult reality in which one realizes that what one might have considered precious and rare might actually be desired by others to share. It is suspected the Jewish people might once have felt a similar slight once the gentiles claimed for themselves what had once been solely of Jewish domain...however, certainly at the very least it should equally provoke a sense of affirmation that even one's purported opponents must see some of what one practices as being good and desirable...to have and to hold...unto themselves...
