JOHN MICHAEL TALBOT
From TROUBADOUR FOR THE LORD by Dan O'Neill.

Ibid., page 130.(Talbot states) "I believe we'll find unity one day - at least a significant measure of it. But this, in my opinion, will only come through a full philosophical, historical and scriptural unity. This is the tripod on which a unified church must stand. If any one leg is removed, it will collapse," John asserts.

Ibid., page 131. "(Father Ecklecamp, executive secretary of the Englishspeaking Conference of the Provincial Ministers of the Order of Friars Minor) has ruled that Protestants may become ecumenical Franciscan members, opening the door to virtually all interested parties.

From SIMPLICITY, John Michael Talbot, page 54. "Care must be taken, though, that the Scriptures not be studied in isolation from the ongoing teaching of the church." (Roman Catholicism) "True, we have the Spirit of God within us to guide and direct us. We have an objective body of teaching in the Scriptures. But remember: it was the church that authenticated these Scriptures, and it is the teaching office of the church which provides the commentary or the instruction to interpret these biblical documents. A balance must be maintained between tradition and Scripture."

From SIMPLICITY, John Michael Talbot. "Personally, I have found praying the Rosary to be one of the most powerful tools I possess in obtaining simple, childlike meditation on the life of Jesus Christ."

Now, what was Jack's claim again?

"It is also quite obvious that Tamarisk is unaware that affiliates of PFAI must agree with our Statement of Faith in order to become part of our fellowship This rules out ecumenicalism, since ecumenicalism recognizes all faiths regardless of doctrine, and this PFAI does not do. It is quite obvious that Catholics, Episcopalians, etc., could not and would not agree with our Statement of faith,�.. Since we do not allow into our fellowship those who do not agree with our Statement of Faith, it is quite apparent that we are not ecumenical. �.it is apparent that we are not ecumenical. Thus, it is quite obvious that Tamarisk did not do his homework and proper research. �

Again to re-cap: What does Mike Kear proclaim to be his idea of "Heavenly Music!"?

Who are Kear's recommended links?

FROM KEAR'S SITE (LINKED FROM JACK'S SITE).......:
"�North American Academy of Ecumenists
The goal of the North American Academy of Ecumenists is to inform, relate, and encourage men and women whose profession or ministry in the church involves them in ecumenical activities and studies. Its unique contribution is to provide ecumenists with an open structure for exploring issues too important to be left exclusively to official ecumenical agencies and projects.�"

Even though Jack Howell is so fond of the phrase "It is quite obvious/it is quite apparent" that he enlists the terms multi times in one paragraph; the only thing that is truly "quite obvious" to those in the real world is that Jack Howell and PFAI are flat out liars and deceivers among the sheep.
