When are you coming home. I thought you were ...Rev<br /><br />When are you coming home. I thought you were already buying the canoe and thanks for dropping by.<br /><br />This post started about three weeks ago, I was practicing Tom Wolfe sentence structures. You know a sentence that would run for a page and half, with a bold statement at the front and a completely opposing thought at the end, that somehow still made sense when you reread it five times. The first or second page of the Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test, if I recall.<br /><br />Anyway that was too hard, so I started practicing intertwining sentences, but the damn post kept growing. In fact it wouldn’t stop. I felt somewhat bad about the previous, stop shooting, post, you know telling a whack of bloggers what to do, so I figured I needed to lay low a bit. I tend to get carried away with myself sometimes. <br /><br />Part of the problem with this post was I was trying to be somewhat subliminal by enlarging the first word of different paragraphs to form an independent sentence or thought might subconsciously hit you, as you scrolled down the page. The problem then was keeping some grammatical structure between the predesigned words and stay on focus about the post.<br /><br />Almost had it and then Marci McDonald released her book and Frank Graves hit the news so I had to switch directions at the end.<br /><br />Didn’t expect anyone to actually take the time to read it, which is why I really appreciate your referring post today.<br /><br />Thank you.WILLYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16507295892199741837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6562862281095647631.post-15401346233801327982010-05-20T15:47:16.017-04:002010-05-20T15:47:16.017-04:00Perry,
Thank you for taking the time to read such...Perry,<br /><br />Thank you for taking the time to read such a long post. It is typically not my style and I expected few to try and work their way through it. Last weekend I followed up on your article about the African CMA missionaries and intend to follow further on the documentary.<br /><br />I am biassed when it comes to any religion and specifically evangelical christians and can not accept the idea that a political leader could belong to such a radical faith and still perform their duties. Of course we have George Bush as an example of that. <br /><br />Unfortunately Harper is much more intelligent, controlled and in the end more dangerous than Bush, at least in my biassed opion. When listening to Harper or his predecessor Manning responding to questions, I always sensed a smugness in their almost too cute, responses, that more often than not sounded like code words back to their followers and fellow parishioners.<br /><br />Thank you again for taking the time.WILLYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16507295892199741837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6562862281095647631.post-90824285638488951992010-05-20T11:38:04.529-04:002010-05-20T11:38:04.529-04:00Bravo!

I remember nearly falling off my chair when I first read about Harper's membership in that church.<br /><br />I recently wrote a blog review of a documentary that details horrific child abuse by CMA missionaries in Africa. You can read that article at: <br />http://www.perrybulwer.com/chain-the-dogma/2009/12/22/child-sacrifice-a-review-of-the-documentary-all-gods-childre.html<br /><br />You can also find more articles and information about The Family International cult in that blog and elsewhere on that site. By the way, David Berg, the deceased founder of that cult, had predicted that Jesus would return in 1993. When that didn't happen, and after Berg died in 1994, the current cult leaders began putting off the date of Jesus' return and they are now telling their followers and academic apologists that Berg has spoken to them from heaven and the second coming has now been delayed for about 50 years. See the following news articles regarding their latest attempts to remake their public image:<br />http://www.perrybulwer.com/religion-and-child-abuse-news/2009/6/27/family-international-aka-children-of-god-once-dismissed-as-s.htmlPerry Bulwerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12494489416673128157noreply@blogger.com
