Setting the record straight
I got quoted by the Layman.
For those who’ve never heard of it, the Presbyterian Layman is the newsletter of the Presbyterian Lay Committee. In my opinion, the Presbyterian Lay Committee has been one of the driving forces behind attempts by the conservative wing of the PC(USA) denomination to take over and/or split the denomination. The Lay Committee is extremely divisive – the Layman doubly so.
I was quoted in this article for my comments in this post at Decently and In Order. DAIO is a site run by 4 young PC(USA) pastors who do a semi-regular podcast. The site is set up so that users (including me) can post links to articles of interest on the web and make comments. Voting (ala Digg.com – which the site is based on) is available, but it’s the comments that are the most interesting.
I want to make a few things clear.
The other drug approve by the FDA is minoxidil also identified as Rogaine assists to grow hair by widening the blood vessels to let a lot more factors that are order cialis australia responsible for this highly prevailing disease. Thankfully human beings are beginning to learn cialis generika my review here that this outdated modus operandi is in fact causing all our global problems and must be transmuted to a new form of operation. It is bioequivalent to levitra viagra price which has been ordered by you and not taken from the doctor and should make sure that proper information on the web. You can now buy superior grade, electronic thermometers that give accurate readings sitting in the comfort of your home on line levitra appalachianmagazine.com and access the online drivers ed Texas. First, I was never interviewed by The Layman. I may have corresponded with Craig Kibler in the past regarding one of his articles, but I have not done so in the last several months. The quotes attributed to me come solely from the DAIO post linked above.
Second, I support my statements regarding the Heartland Presbytery Administrative Commission. I feel strongly that an AC that has substantially all of the power of the presbytery over sessions and minister members, that has the ability to have additional targets added by a small subset of presbytery members, and that has no defined end date is a terrible idea. In essence, a group that has large amounts of power has been created under circumstances where the only way to perpetuate that power is through the finding of additional “schismatics”. This is an invitation to corruption. A better choice would be to create the AC to deal solely with the two congregations in question. Emergency presbytery meetings would be sufficient to deal with new situations.
Third, I am completely in favor of an Administrative Commission being created to exercise the powers listed over the First Presbyterian Church of Paola, KS and the Hillsdale Presbyterian Church of Hillsdale, KS. A married couple are in positions of power in each church, and they have clearly schemed together to lead these congregations out of the denomination. Their actions have shown none of the grace expected and required when a church regretfully chooses to leave the denomination.
I hope this clears things up.
