<DIV>Sunil,</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Why do all of your emails come across as a legal cross examination of somebody on the stand? Are you not capable of speaking like a human being instead of a lawyer? We aren't inside a court room, and Pat Kraut is a not witness for the defense for you to try and discredit. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I think it is obvious to me, that Pat Kraut was trying to engage in conversation about the state trying to force the church to behave in a particular manner, she used interracial marriage as a similar instance as a historical reference. She was not advocating that it was wrong as your setting up your argument. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>You turned the conversation into one about the personal beliefs of Pat Kraut. She didn't want to go that route because you try to turn her words against her rather than just having the conversation. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Best,</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Donovan</DIV>
