Let me apologize in advance. . I'm sure this has already be touched on. But I'm seeing in different places that people are scoring one for the church on the latest essays. I wholeheartedly disagree! We know best of all, that most TBMs remain close minded, no matter what. I submit the essays will have a polarizing g effect, where TBMs who cling onto their fears and egos will only cling tighter, but people (like us, at one point most of us were TBM), will be the tipping point on their shelf.

That is all.

Yes, it is touched on quite a bit. There have been numerous posts lately on the subject and plenty of pro and con comments.

I'll just say this: HONESTY [truth] is bad for the ["true"] church; LYING is bad for the church; THE CHURCH is bad for the church.

When you are as dirty and slimy as TMC, it must be difficult to come clean (when you don't really want to and are afraid to).
