 | A reader speaks outHere are excerpts from two letters I received the writer of the large Canadian blog, Benediction Blog: |
Letter #1
I've often wondered how you do what you do.
I admit I'm not going to understand much of the Baptist structures and
culture.:^) But I am beginning to understand from reading Secret Radio and your blog the harm that this fundamentalism has wrecked in lives. It is it's own cult, with the same sins, same techniques and structures of any cult…When I see the verbal abuse of these men, the twisting of truth for gain, the threats, the mockery, pride and self-centeredness, I pray for you…Blog on!
Letter #2
I think blogs are a terrific way to expose darkenss to the light. I recall a childhood phrase...give someone enough rope to hang themselves. I think I've grown to understand just how dangerous and closed the group you are tangling with are. I knew it had started with Brent Stevens, but had no idea what you had been through. I'm glad these men can't hide on their forum. And isn't it great that someone in Canada who knew little to nothing about this arrogant sect can see them for what they are?
