Dear Visionaries,
Perhaps one of the Doug's can help us understand exactly what "lies" Wayne 
Fox tells us "about local Christianity." Has it come to pass that Christ 
Church speaks for, or represents, all local Christianity?  (This seems 
symptomatically grandiose even for them.)  Who needs to lie about Christ 
Church, (certainly not Wayne Fox), when  their religious ideology includes 
upholding:
1.    the sexist notion that women are subject to men (hence the all male 
school board, marriage vows that include the bride's use of the word obey, 
etc.); 
1)  the pro-slavery belief that God sanctioned slavery, (remember when Doug 
finally admitted that under "certain conditions" slavery was acceptable"); 
2)  the homophobic and homicidal idea that the stoning of homosexuals 
fulfills God's requirement to punish "sinful" sexual acts. Thankfully this 
appears to be a biblical commandment they ignore (for now). However, they 
claim God will not be mocked, so it follows that in their perfect theocratic 
world they will be able (required)? to line up and spend an afternoon pelting 
the hell out of gay or lesbian sinners, or even disobedient children come to 
think of it.
4)  the vision of an inerrant Bible and, hence the impossibility of 
evolution.   
Good Heavens, who needs to lie?
