Just this morning I located another kirk blog linked to my site that revealed yet another misquote. Dale Cortney still refuses to pull an intentional misquote from my blog that has now been up for months. This is amazing. After 8 months, and every kirk attack has been in the form of bald falsehood, nonsensical ridicule, or else strong critique of strawed-man quotes ripped out of context. Does not anyone at the Kirk have a rational, argumentative point to be made about the constant and varied public criticism against them?
Outside of the silly “persecution” ploy?<o:p></o:p></span></font></div> <div class="MsoNormal"><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: "Courier New";"><o:p> </o:p></span></font></div> <div class="MsoNormal"><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: "Courier New";">As for this quote: this has become one of the steady anti-pooh mantras that kirkers sooth themselves with. So please allow me just this one time to quickly and modestly point out the relevant fact that my readership is as strong as Peter Leithart’s; you might recall how Wilson boasted about Leithart’s blog in his sermon when explaining why he was the truly anointed one in Moscow. Apparently, the kind of “interest” Leithart’s blog gets is evidence for the fact that YHWH will defend the Kirk against its local enemies; I guess I now have evidence that YHWH is routing for me too. In sum, I
certainly haven’t sent links to Vision 2020 to keep a “needed” readership (putting aside the claims that I have a mental disorder); I just like local readership more than non-local, given the common topic of my blog (which, by the way, is only about 40% Kirk stuff these days). <o:p></o:p></span></font></div> <div class="MsoNormal"><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: "Courier New";"><o:p> </o:p></span></font></div> <div class="MsoNormal"><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: "Courier New";">Dear kirkers, say something true and meaningful. <o:p></o:p></span></font></div> <div class="MsoNormal"><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: "Courier New";"><o:p> </o:p></span></font></div> <div class="MsoNormal"><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: "Courier
