Thank you for that. I really appreciate that. I suspect a state dept employee. I did reply , but won't again. I never knew my maternal grandmother, who died of leukemia at 55 before I was born, but my father said her favorite saying was "there are none so blind as those who will not see. She was a poor Cockney like my dad, but obviously, nobody's fool. Thanks again

That's saying is based on scripture.🙏

Matthew 13:10-15

10 The disciples came to him and asked, “Why do you speak to the people in parables?”

11 He replied, “Because the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them. 12 Whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them.

13 This is why I speak to them in parables:

“Though seeing, they do not see;

though hearing, they do not hear or understand.

14 In them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah:

“‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding;

you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.

15 For this people’s heart has become calloused;

they hardly hear with their ears,

and they have closed their eyes.

Otherwise they might see with their eyes,

hear with their ears,

understand with their hearts

and turn, and I would heal them.
