glad you liked it ...

There are many great posts from the past that should be revived from time to time (and not just my own). You are largely correct about the church, though at present there is considerable variation between the churches in different countries and my critique does not apply to all of them.

Incidentally, LGsinmyheart wrote a great follow-up to my original post if you want to follow the link and see it - and today would be the 16th anniversary of his awakening to girl love.
