You say paleo, I say neo 

The best article on the academic integrity of Moscow's New Saint Andrews
College (NSA) came out recently in the Spokesman Review (Oct. 22). 

Doug Wilson, pastor of Moscow's Christ Church and NSA funder, confessed that
he was a "paleo-Confederate," just after NSA President Roy Atwood said that
any connection between his college and the neo-Confederates was "laughably
stupid." 

The distinction Wilson tries to draw between neo- and paleo-Confederate is
one without a difference. Steve Wilkins, founding director of the
neo-Confederate League of the South, has been keynote speaker at Wilson's
Moscow conferences for 12 years in a row. 

I also appreciated Wilson's confession that Robert E. Lee's portrait and the
Confederate flag have been displayed in church and school functions, in
spite of Logos Principal Tom Garfield's claims to the contrary. A visiting
pastor testified to the presence of the Confederate flag in Wilson's office.


I proudly call myself "intolerista," a name that Wilson & Co. give to those
who dare cricitize them. Intolerance is a virtue when one is intolerant of
dishonesty, bigotry, discrimination, ugly behavior and bad manners.
