I was not nasty to you. I just said you should not generalize. Post #88 had nothing to do with Kimball. The poster was attempting to blame Kimball for all of the actions of the NCC, kind of like Ted Kennedy did to Alito with that CAP thing. Nothing in that post was relevant to this discussion. I believe George W. Bush is a member of the United Methodist Church, who is a member of the NCC, so I guess he is implicated in the post also, along with a majority of Protestants and Orthodox Chritians in the US. The fact is Kimball is very sympathetic to the muslim people, but everything I've read by him is harshly critical of Islamic terrorists. He contends that the extremists really are a minority in that region. I don't totally agree with him, but that opinion hardly makes him a communist. I think the other poster was just embarrassed because he had been attacking the man without any facts, and he felt foolish.
Kimball joined the NCC after they were outed in 1983. Kimball knowingly aligned himself with a known communist front group, and to this day brags about his involvement.
President Bush's involvement with the UMC is regrettable.
