Christopher, I liked your message, but couldn't let this slip by without comment: You control it by reaching out to the desperately unhappy people who feel the need to alienate themselves from society and including them as persons of value in society. This is what the church did for centuries. It loss is one of the greatest tragedies of the denigration of faith by so many of the "intellectuals" in society. Ummm, which church are you talking about here? The one that preaches that God hates fags? The one that conducted the inquisition? The one that teaches that women are second class citizens? The one that taught that slavery was okay? IMO, the church has contributed to excluding people from society, and NOT including outcasts (well, except outcasts like EV) as persons of value in society. I'd love to hear some examples to the contrary. Regards, Craig
