Not that I agree with this entirely, but I'm sure it is quite humbling for you to admit that you too are included.

I see how one can benefit from that kind of double-mindedness.

How is it double-mindedness when I hold leaders accountable, and view church kids as victims?

It allows for passive aggressiveness and a shift of accountability. "As a whole" means "in general". Please stop misrepresenting my posts and trying to make me your Drake, Ohio. I'm not that person.

Oh no - you've invoked the ghost of Drake! (and I wonder how you even know about him . . .)

Jo S, that's a funny response to a simple challenge. How did I misrepresent your post?

Now that I think about it, ole Drake left the same time you arrived -- last April.

Hmmm ... is it all just a coincidence folks? Inquiring minds need to know. Another LSM troll in hiding?
