I have frequently tried to soft-pedal it, but this is, frankly, one of
the most distasteful things I've read on Vision 2020.  This has
nothing to do with the KKKrist Church KKKashmachine and
KKKult(tm)(r)(etc), or whatever spittle-flecked, half-rabid set of
candy-colored adjectives you've decided to use this week. The victims
of this crime don't simply exist so you can use them to tar and
feather Doug Wilson.
