My copy of PDL sits on my "questionable to heretical" shelf, alonside Warren mentor Rob't Schuller's Self Esteem: The New Reformation, the Catholic Catechism, the Book o' Mormon, and some Marian apparition stuff. I'm keeping an eye out for Osteen and co.

It's possible I'm viewed as a troublemaker.
