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

[Art Deco]

Thank you Jerry for making it official:  Cult Master Wilson is just as important as Jesus.  We all knew the Cult Master felt that way because of one past slip.  Now you have reaffirmed it for him, sparing his personally looking less than modest by reminding us again.

Motto:

The Christ Church Cult:  You must tolerate us since we do not tolerate anyone else!

  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.
