Edgar, (and Bill!),
Pls. be advised of the POSSIBILITY that persons on the list -- maybe many of
them "quiet" -- may hold doctrines dearly, personally, and importantly.
It is not your place to call the doctrines, or those who hold them, names.
Doctrines and practices are held by PEOPLE: they do not exist in the abstract,
but only in warm-blooded Mammals called Humans.
Please realize this.
Stop your named-calling and insulting characterizations. Please.
For the good of this Forum.
