Can you clarify further Michael? What specifically
are your thoughts on local politics?
Dale pointing to a single event and then painting with
a broad brush doesn't convince me of much. There are
several disgruntled former members of Christ Church -
as Doug Wilson would call them. By Dale's logic, I
should just rely on one of them - Terry Morin for
example - and be able to determine Christ Church's
priorities.
