Aleluia.<br /><br />Of course we are disappointed with some of the results but democracy does work and the people, in this case commissioners, do get it right sooner or later. The Spirit is blessing us and we will all be bathed in the Light, more and more Light!<br /><br />We need people like you to keep pushing the enbvelope. You do it with intelligence, creativity, humor, sensitivity and compassion. Very Presbyterian. Very Christian.

I didn't know that Bill Harter even talked with people from the IPMN much less signed letters together! Plus earlier in the week Dr. Henderson made a speech about how terrible the MESC report was. <br /><br />What is even more amazing is that on this issue the normal liberal/conservative thing just doesn't happen. I have Evangelical friends who won't even discuss Israel/Palestine with me and others who will support the change in G-6.0106b who work with me on Israel/Palestine issues. Although I have to say that those who support gay and lesbian issues are now confusing people by being from the whole theological spectrum too. Go figure.Pastor Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10510081361292855641noreply@blogger.com
