A faith without some doubts is like a human body with no antibodies in it. People who blithely go through life too busy or indifferent to ask the hard questions about why they believe as they do will find themselves defenseless against either the experience of tragedy or the probing questions of a smart skeptic. A person's faith can collapse almost overnight if she failed over the years to listen patiently to her own doubts, which should only be discarded after long reflection.

The following recipe is from "Rare Collection, ISBN 0-961-37790-9). I made
it once according to the original instructions: it was OK, next time I
added/removed items, and I was a lot more pleased with the result. My
comments are in ALL CAPS. (Make 2 hours ahead of time)
1. Combine all ingredients (EXCEPT THE POBLANO STRIPES) in a food processor
or blender (process by batches if neccessary), processing until smooth.
2. Chill at least two hours
3. Garnish with additional chopped cucumbers if desired) AND WITH THE
POBLANOS.
Note: I was feeling a bit fancy and decided to put 4-5 stripes of poblano
in each bowl on top of the soup, all running parallel to each other, then
with a bit of sour cream I placed an equal number of lines perpendicular to
the peppers, so as to form a grid. Looked good, tasted great. I might go
with some red peppers next time to add more colour...
