Why have you not responded in like or condemned the "prayers to squash them like the bugs they are" that Mike Lawyer and even Patch Blakely has promoted and in fact said?  Don't see you reacting to tell them to stop it.....seems short-sighted to me.  Well, ok - "blind-sighted".  Same dif in this case.

Mr. Schou's solution to the specious, community 
wide rift that Mr. Gier imagines Wilson is responsible for is 
contained in the second to the last line of the post I was responding to. 
It seems unambiguous.
 
"Starving Wilson's church to death using 
all powers short of state coercion."

Referring to Gary's response, below, regarding "intolerance" 
  and Christ Church's opponents, I have a question that I know he would find 
  pertinent.  When has Andreas or anyone else ever called for, worked for, 
  or publicly hoped for "death for this particular faith community"?

I'd 
  like an end to this particular faith community's influence on the Palouse, 
  yes.  I'd like to see the whole organization collapse in a heap of 
  Spirit-led repentance and remorse, yes.  And I'd like to see it rise up 
  again as a true "Christ" Church, working for reconciliation, justice, peace, 
  truth, equality and the comfort of the afflicted -- absolutely.  But harm 
  to any of its leaders, followers, or their families, many of whom, if they're 
  women and children, feel they have no choice but to remain at least outwardly 
  committed to the Kirk?  No way.  I have never prayed an imprecatory 
  prayer in my life and I have never physically harmed another person in my 
  life, except for once in self-defense two or three decades ago.  I won't 
  start now, and I know Andreas and every other "Intolerista" well enough to 
  know that they wouldn't, either.  

So, Gary, what did you 
  mean?  And do you include those in Kootenai County who bravely fought for 
  the "death" of the Aryan Nations not too long ago in your condemnation of 
  those who you feel are a "mite intolerant"?  Do tell.  I'm unpacked, 
  I've gone through the mail, and I've got all evening to hear your 
  response.  Whatever it is, I wish you and your wife a Happy New 
  Year.

Keely
