And also from the "League of the South" website at:
http://www.leagueofthesouth.net/static/homepage/ls-intro.html
Dr. Michael Hill, League of the South President states:
"Most organizations founder because they lack self-definition and a definite
goal. The League of the South is a Southern Nationalist organization whose
ultimate goal is a free and independent Southern republic. To reach this
goal, we intend to create the climate for a free South among our people by
1) de-legitimating the American Empire at every opportunity; 2) by proving
our willingness to be servant-leaders to the Southern people; and 3) by
making The League of the South a strong, viable organization that will lead
us to Southern independence.
While our overall strategy--short, medium, and long range--is determined by
the President, the Board, and our State Chairman, our tactical operational
focus is on the local level. We intend to form active chapters in every
county in every Southern State, and as many chapters as possible in
non-Southern States. We also encourage individuals and families to
personally secede from the corrupt and corrupting influence of
post-Christian culture in America. We call this "abjuring the realm," and
it's a real and dramatic first step all of us can take by simply withdrawing
our support of and allegiance to a regime that has imperiled our future.
While we seek to use shame and contempt to de-legitimate the institutions
controlled by the Empire, we must not stop there. We must create our own
parallel institutions to which our people can attach their loyalties. A good
example of this is the move out of the "public" schools and into home
schooling or the establishment of our own private academies. Also, the
League sponsors weekend Hedge Schools and week-long summer institutes to
educate our people."
Question: Does that last paragraph remind anybody of a local "group"?
This is merely the proverbial tip of the iceberg, g.

Mr. Schou,
Considering your penchant for overblown rhetoric and fudging the facts on
this topic you will have to forgive me if I do not accept your every
utterance as though it were revealed truth.
Your "long" post seems to be equal parts guilt by association, accusations
of past ill considered remarks with no reference, citation, or context, and
your own unique spin as applied to the purported statements of others.
Hardly the sort of thing that is going to do a more effective job of
convincing me of the imminent harm that will befall our community from the
dread CC than the "thousands" of other rants you have gone off on before.
It would appear that you would have me believe that you have the singular
ability to see beyond what I hear with my own two ears and can read with my
own to eyes and discern the truth of all that is Christ Church. That somehow
you have been given free reign to roam the back country of the Wilson
psyche. Your inability to back up your assertions with anything by way of
solid reference leads me to the conclusion that your dire warnings are the
product of your overly liberal mind set along with an unfounded fear of
Christianity and precious little to do with fact.
As an example, you refer to the league of the south as "a neo-confederate
hate group" as though this were an incontrovertible fact and not just an
opinion held by a few like minded chicken little's and "progressive"
parrots.
>From their website:
"We bear no ill will or hatred to any racial, ethnic, or religious group.
We believe that Christianity and social order require that all people,
regardless of race, must be equal before the law. We do not believe that the
law should be used to persecute, oppress, or favor any race or class.
We believe that the only harmony possible between the races, as between all
natural differences among human beings, begins in submitting to Jesus
Christ's commandment to "love our neighbors as ourselves." That is the world
we envision and work for."
I suppose that your response would be "so they say but I know better" but
baring evidence, I'm inclined to take them at their word. Now were you to
provide solid evidence of their being involved in a criminal act, you will
have found the right button to push to convince me to change my mind. With
out it, just more heated hyperbole such as you have served up all to often
in the past.
What this all boils down to is you would have me and the rest of the
community believe that Wilson wants to kill homosexuals and oppress women
and enslave ethnic minorities. What I see is a church that has amongst its
fellowship live homosexuals and smart, capable women and independent
minorities. Which should I believe you and your unsubstantiated allegations
or what I, or anyone else for that matter, can see and hear for themselves?
