"Actually, Doug Wilson informed us at a Head of Household Meeting that he thought the movie did a good job at fairly presenting both sides; Wilson went further to say that some of it was even informative for him, presenting some actors or scenes that he was not aware of. After that public statement, however, it’s viewing was never promoted to my recollection. (recall that Wilson has sought to put an end to Vision2020 and Daily News)" M. Metzler
Do you have an evidence of this, or are we to take your account as the one and only truth?
"Me:
I think this is a very inaccurate and unhealthy social analysis (and in fact not very good theology for a Catholic if you ask me); this is particularly the case with respect to those who have been ‘in’ the group under consideration. Ironically, I just posted an analysis of the vulnerability that all social institutionalization can bring; how much more so for groups like CC:"
I think it is unhealthy and bad practice to mix your friends, religion, politics and job all into one group of people. Talk about setting yourself up. Most Catholics I know, and there are many, do not behave this way.

Participation in an interview and agreement with the content of the entire film is not the same thing. Nor would I watch a movie tha! t is intentionally biased under the pretense it was fair and balanced information.

Donovan:
Humm, I don't know, maybe make new friends, call the yellow pages and get business because you advertise and provide a service or good worthy of purchasing? There are 31,000 other people in Latah in which to business outside of Christ Church. Wilson does not h! ave the ability to take away persons relationship with God except themselves.
Wilson only has the power you and others give him.

I’m finding it ironic that Wilson is defended in terms of extreme libertarianism, while those who have general concerns for social justice are the ones criticized for daring to even mention the ‘private’ business of others. But others on this list have already made some good points to this, so I’ll leave it at that.
Thanks
