Comments?

Ohio, why not examine "deputy authority" and "delegated authority"? Isn't this also the glory of men? Another is the concept man has to be one with man ("be one with the brothers") which why there is the practice "respect of persons". Rarely seen or heard is a rebuke or admonishment of a delegated authority or a deputy authority. There is simply too much respect of persons which leads to glory of man.
