"I know, but I think what controlled me was not Mick's prayer (and therefore, not God) but Micks's revelation to me that he was praying.

Ultimately, it was Mick's power over my life, not his actual influence with God, which made me give in on this."

Yes, that's what I meant too.

I don't expect Mick had any idea of what he was doing to you though, I doubt if he meant to be malicious really. I didn't know him too well but I saw him quite a lot at Cornerstone and I never saw him joining in with the deliberate malicious nastiness that was going on. Some of the people used to get a lot of pleasure in using their power to hurt other people, like pulling the wings off flies, but I never saw Mick joining in any of that stuff.

I am sorry that you got hurt as well Peter. We've had some right dingdongs on here, you and me, no doubt we'll have a few more, but what you wrote made me feel sad, because I felt that too. May I give you a cyberhug? (I'm going to anyway! (HUG!)

Is it for certain that Mick will take over the leadership of the JA? What about Bob Noble?
