[O.C. - Old Cracker]

I am somewhat chary of getting moral guidance from Chuck Colson.
As a Christian I am compelled to forgive Chuck Colson. I am not required to accept his guidance. Particularly in view of his rather dismal past.

Who demanded that you accept Colson's "guidance"? I read the article, and except for a few Biblically based exhortations aimed at true believers in Jesus Christ, where are the demands?

If you have a beef with Colson's past sins, perhaps you should listen to his views on the subject. Colson doesn't soft soap his Watergate involvement and offers no excuse. But the last 25 years of his life have been spent offering practical as well as spiritual help to prison inmates and their families. How have you spent the last 25 years of your life?

I have no idea why you are directing these comments to me. I have a great deal of personal respect for Colson and what he has accomplished. I raised the issue of the single FBI file to contrast the hypocrisy of his persecution versus the degenerate conduct of the Clinton Whitehouse.
