Seems limited to sporadic links on their Facebook account. You have to try too hard to find this stuff, even if you link right to it. <br /><br />That's the Internet for you. Everything gets connected to everything, sooner or later.<br /><br />My advice: Take a hint out of Oprah Winfrey's play book. Stop giving them air time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560220615271337359.post-87124770067355296092011-11-13T15:49:54.272-08:002011-11-13T15:49:54.272-08:00Doug, this is tangential to Viola's post, but ...Doug, this is tangential to Viola's post, but you say you or others have felt ignored, and sorry for that if it happens, but I can tell you that ignored is how the orthodox mostly feel by the hierarchy in Louisville. And I think it happens way more often than occasional ignorings of whoever you mean by "those who find themselves on the outside" by the orthodox, whose intention, at least by those whose faith is mature, is never to ignore anyone.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01755638934636386391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560220615271337359.post-5011427003723186402011-11-13T14:52:36.298-08:002011-11-13T14:52:36.298-08:00Thanks Doug, and thank you for liking my comment o...Thanks Doug, and thank you for liking my comment on IPMN.<br /><br />David thank you for placing a comment there too. I hope they all stay. Both of those sites are getting even more extreme if that is possible. I think I need to do a much larger posting on VT-minus IPMN. I do see some people looking for information on VT on my feed. I think an article with a list of all of their sister sites might be helpful.Viola Larsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09146967423654966140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560220615271337359.post-75970988590560714552011-11-13T14:43:22.121-08:002011-11-13T14:43:22.121-08:00@reformedpastor - that feeling, of being ignored i...@reformedpastor - that feeling, of being ignored instead of rationally engaged, is one that "orthodoxy" tends to engender in those who find themselves on the outside. I can vouch for that one, and is a reason I have an allergic reaction to the word even now when it is deployed.<br /><br />@ Viola: This was a very good post.Douglas Underhillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02215736448645573566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560220615271337359.post-40128410184065136852011-11-13T12:56:49.544-08:002011-11-13T12:56:49.544-08:00By the way, I also read the piece of pseudo-schola...By the way, I also read the piece of pseudo-scholarship (pseudo-journalism? pseudo something, that's for sure) at the Salem-News. The writer, Dr. Richard L. Matteoli, is an anti-circumcision fanatic whose "qualification" to opine on this subject are that he's a dentist. He's self-published a book on the subject that claims circumcision is a form of Munchausen's by Proxy Syndrome (something else he no doubt learned about in dental school).<br /><br />David Fischler<br />Woodbridge, VA<br /><br />PS--I've put a comment under the Salem-News link on the IPMN Facebook page. I'll check it occasionally to see how long it stays up.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560220615271337359.post-25095313062281836812011-11-13T12:28:33.779-08:002011-11-13T12:28:33.779-08:00Oh, and IPMN removed your comment, too.

I hope some Jewish leaders will take this up with PCUSA, and essentially give it and us-or-them choice. Disassociate from the anti-Semitic swill that IPMN mucks around in by de-recognizing them, or Jews will cut off interfaith dialogue.<br /><br />Of course, if they do some boneheads from Jewish Voice for Peace or some other far-left group would probably step in an save face for the PCUSA. Or maybe Gilad Atzmon will start selling his book on the PCUSA web site. <br /><br />David Fischler<br />Woodbridge, VAAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
