I don't know that you and I ever interacted at MDD but I appreciate your comments and work.

As for the blog post...loved it!

Thanks for the link, CK. That gave me a lot to think about. It's really insightful.

I'm glad that John Williams guy doesn't hang around on this board, though. He seems like a real jerk.

Or maybe I'm his sock puppet. Scratch that. I'm supposed to be Buffalo's sock puppet. :smile:

Thank you for the link Chris. Gives me a lot to think about.

I think probably a lot of missionary companions from Utah have had struggles in Bolivia.

Robert Leroy Parker and Harry Alonzo Longabaugh come to mind.

"Who are those guys?"
"Any over-ritualized religion since the dawn of time can make its priests say yes, we know, it is rotten, and hard luck, but just do as we say, keep at the ritual, stick it out, give us your money and you'll end up with the angels in heaven for evermore."

Now you're just confusing me. I thought Scratch = Kishkumen = Jason Derek Brown.
