Yes, Paul, It is true!
All women are just as sinful as all men. They are in need of a Savior
just like you or I.
But can you imagine what would be traveling around V2020 if either of
these women were members of Christ Church here in Moscow?
That really was my point. Those that wish to crucify Doug Wilson
because of the sins of a few individuals, who happen to sin openly, is
the whole reason for most of the comments here on V2020. They only wish
to comment negatively when it can be directly or indirectly traced back
to Christ Church or Doug Wilson. All of the comments about these two
women will come back just like your whiny voice. "Well men do it too!"
There will be no outcry for the victims from Deco or J. in any of these
situations. No disdain for the perpetrators by Tom Hansan. No call for
impeachment of the Judge or the Prosecuting attorney. It will be all
quiet on the eastern front.
I'm just trying to point out, as a "good" Christian, the disingenuous
actions by those that hold their self-righteous candle of truth. That
is all.
lemeno, Doug
PS, Is your "handle" god-shatter or gods-hatter?

Like no *man* in power has ever done something like this.
Sheesh.
By the way, I can feel the love in everyone of your posts - that's how
I
know you're a good Christian.
