And yet the world keeps revolving closer and closer to the time when this will not sound so weird. Hopefully we can keep the Great Tribulation away from our doorsteps another 50-60 years so that by then, most of us will be dead and not have to go through it.
Again, what *you* think is moderate or insane is based on what *you* believe. There are plenty of people in my church who think that women should be seen and not heard, or should have their head covered at worship on Sunday, never mind being Bishop. You yourself seem more liberal than most here, and so naturally, I'd have to be pretty darned left to be left of *you*, which you no doubt would call "center". So even if I am "left of center", it's not left enough because you're already leaning left, and so it's not left of *your* center.
