[Vision2020] Mr. Mole (or The Wind in the Elders)

[keely emerinemix]

Please, Jerry -- could you hold off on the comparisons to Jesus, David, and 
Paul until after I've had my coffee?  I can't take such dreck on a 
completely empty stomach.

Quick lesson here, pal:  Judas, Jesus' betrayer, was a "mole" because he 
robbed the treasury and, not incidentally, conspired to have Jesus killed.  
I'm going to go to sleep tonight pretty much assured that Christ Church 
moles aren't raiding the treasury and getting paid to have Doug Wilson 
killed.  You might be unable to differentiate between leaking an email and 
crucifying the guy, but people in the real world can, and I'd bet that most 
of them find that your analysis lands squarely between laughably paranoid 
and lamentably stupid.

Yeah, that's really insightful, Joan.  Jesus didn't have any betrayers or 
moles among his followers, nor did David, Paul or anyone else in their 'real 
church.'  You nailed it.
