"perhaps that which some consider 'sacred' is not dissimilar to that which others 'respect'."

That's exactly what I was thinking when I wound up that post, Littlestone.

As Gyrus says, language is a living and everchanging thing, but I do tentatively disagree with him/her that there is one 'psychospatial' origin of the word 'sacred', as this thread (and others) surely proves the vast diversity of understanding/context of this one small word. And words go back some way, before books!
