Then, in the most previous post, I gave you a chance to prove that you weren't a hypocrite by condemning Farris. Of course, just because you don’t prove something it doesn’t follow that it is false.

> I am sorry that Joe thinks I am a hypocrite. I have admonished those on both sides to tone it down and be more civil. As to a reference to some ones son, I may have missed it. I do not read all posts relating to Christ Church. Again I would like to see personal insults by everyone to sease. As to the first quote by Doug Ferris. I thought it was "It is better to remain silent and thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt". I have always attributed it to Cal Coolidge. According to Google it is Abe Lincoln. The version Doug used is close to those of George Elliott and Mark Twain.
