Mamusz, this is a perfectly good forum, but if I were to start my own, from the former RLDS viewpoint, I'd have to call it "The View From Under The Bus." After all that has happened, that's the appropriate name. You, Lois, and I should be glad that this isn't the Middle Ages, and that the CofC isn't the state church, or we'd be boiling in oil right now. After all, the head honcho has said that his patience with dissent has run out.
