Thus the very breeding ground for Church policy is undemocratic
and only nominally representative. This is how a denomination whose
membership is center to center-right can be so liberal on its face.
Its membership wants mission and the spread of the Gospel while
there are those who place little stock in such evangelism except
the Church as a platform for political action. Only on occasion
will the membership stand up and say "no" to the direction it does
not want to go. Would that were more often.

TALK ABOUT OUTSOURCING
Re: The Prowler's Hearings
Impaired:
The Democrats have a lot of gall to come down against U.S.
companies outsourcing when their actions have caused the most
monumental outsourcing imaginable. Our once proud and accomplished
nuclear industry was once the leader in the world. However,
starting with Mr. Carter and continuing with Clinton and all the
Democrats in congress we have lost this advantage and now must rely
on foreign companies to provide nuclear engineering for power
plants here in the United States.

DESSERT MENU
Re: Christopher Holland's letter (under "Flummoxed") in Reader
Mail's Barry and
John:
Christopher Holland informed us:
"Flummery is an English dessert, like a light, whipped custard but pretty bland and tasteless and not filling at all.... I have had first hand experience of it because my mother often cooked it for me and my brothers when we were kids."
Thus, proving the axiom, "You are what you eat"!
