[Vision2020] A Fresh Look at Southern Slavery As It Was

Fri Feb 2 13:27:10 PST 2007

Heaven help me, here we go again. How appropriate that to night we have a 
full moon. It appears that your theory that all of Moscow is a mite thick, 
has fallen flat (...He's got most of Moscow befuddled...V2020 Jan 21, 2007 
13:42) and now you fall; back on insult and acrimony.

Why don't you just say it plain. You figure that you have all the answers 
when it comes to all matters biblical and it is at odds with Mr. Wilson's 
views. Nothing more, nothing less. Rather then following the tried and true 
business model of providing a superior product you shrilly attempt to tear 
down your competition. After all, the locals is to dum to see for them selfs 
whats going on. We needs Rev. Keely to show us the light.

Thank goodness we have you and your intrepid band to set us all straight.
