My father is a Catholic converted to the Baptist faith.

He's far, far harder on the RCs than I would ever dare to put into print.

I can't get the video and don't really have the time so what kind of Baptist is Bill Calabretta? Can't be Southern since they don't take Italian and surely not hippies. Can't be American since they don't proselytize. Can't be Fundamentalist or Independent since they won't advertise on the medium. That leaves Baptist General Conference, Conservative, Reformed (although they have too long hair on the video), some GARB, Landmark, Free will, Seventh Day and General Baptist and if that's not enough we can start another one.

Now, Dr. E. . . . we KNOW they can't have been priests!

Goodness--they'd have KNOWN something about the !!!EDIFICE!!!

And NO ONE who KNOWS ANYTHING REAL OR SERIOUS OR SUBSTANTIVE ABOUT

!!!THE EDIFICE!!! and the !!!MAGESTERICAL!!!

would EVER leave

Mary's . . . wellll . . . Mary's . . . uhhhh . . . lap.

Why, that would be ipso facto proof of insanity . . . or

chronic and genetic lap allergy or . . .

lactose intolerance of the worse sort . . . or . . .

So, CLEARLY the authors are lying . . . they must have been deacons or maybe temporary altar boys hired from amongst the children of the local lettuce pickers.

That's it. They could NOT have been REAL priests in the most high and lofty magesterically affirmmed, buttressed and fossilized Roman Universal Church. Just doesn't compute!

tilt, tilt, tilt, tilt, tilt, does not compute, tilt tilt tilt, would someone please unplug me, tilt, tilt, tilt. does not compute . . . Dr Smith . . . does not compute . . . Will Robinson . . . does not compute, does not compute . . .
