Well, Tim, you implied government figures were not trustworthy. I don't
believe much of what churches or corporations tell us is trustworthy.

It really depends on what you are talking about. There are plenty of
government agencies going over corporate books and stockholder reports
with a fine tooth comb, When they misrepresent products, the lawyers
are all over them, along with regulatory agencies. You certainly have
to take some advertising with a grain of salt but you know more about
that than us since you live in the belly of the beast.

Churches just preach to the converted so they are not talking to you
in the first place. Why would you care what they say ... unless it
starts middle east wars? You seem to accept those claims as gospel.




If the churches in this country kept their preaching, rule-making,
hate-spewing, and attempted rule-making to themselves and their
followers, I'd ignore them.


I feel the same way about most progressive, liberal Democrats who spew
their "messages" today. Compared to them people like JFK was a
card-carrying Republican.



By the same token, compared to your modern-day Republicans, Barry
Goldwater was the paragon of rationality.

He was always a paragon of rationality. You folks wanted the peace
candidate, Johnson and you got Vietnam

That's one of the more intelligent things you've ever said.
