Sometimes I wished I had gone to a catholic monastery just to go deeper into those issues :-) But I did have a good catholic Jesuit upbringing so I can't complain (now) and something they taught me well was not to afraid of asking questions, have an open mind and remain somewhat skeptical.
I totally agree with you that we must see all and each one of the Words within a context. Berg was eager to provide it for us and we fell for it due to our lack of knowledge. So many false prophets even in secular life continue trying to do that praying on unsuspected and sometimes even willing participants. They provide the context to whatever event and since the resulting interpretation feeds some people’s desires, they go for it.
