    Ya know, and this is the God's honest truth... I've only had ONE woman complain about my policy, because she wanted to meet with me on a Wednesday night after Church. I suggested we meet "tomorrow morning during the day, unless there's an emergency". She OFTEN stopped by the Church in the day.

    This particular woman, who actually got mad enough over this to leave the Church, was on her FO[U]RTH marriage. Her THIRD marriage was to a local Methodist preacher. Their affair began in his office at night, while he was still married (divorce pending) and they continued meeting in his office at night.

    She's the ONLY woman who complained about my policy. The only MAN who complained about my policy was her 4th husband!

    (I did not know about her divorce/marriage/divorce to the Methodist preacher until after this incident)

    On the Graham Rule - yes - I'm done. I;'ve been reading the subsequent posts, but I won't be responding further.

    On the gun issue - not yet.
    well this thread is about Billy Graham which includes the BG rule. I only brought up guns to point out how you were being hypocritical. this is not the thread to discuss guns except in that context.

    I was trying to get you to realize that you indeed do support 'policies that treat ALL people as untrustworkthy because a FEW people are.'

    - so your objection to the BG rule based on that excuse falls flat.

    you didn't even complain about the bad grammar in my post! I was rushing out of the door and didn't proof read.

    Sheeeesh!

    That isn't how I read him at all.

    So, you're posting out of ignorance.

    No, that's your dishonest and disingenuous summary.

    Never said that. Please try again.

    Otherwise, I'm done!

    When it comees to guns, where exactly did I say I wasn't griping? Gripe: express a complaint or grumble about something, especially something trivial. Except for the trivial part, when it comes to guns, I am definitely griping.

    I have no idea what specifically was the reason he was not arrested. I was not there, so I am not in a position to pass judgment. It seems to me some of what he is said to have done should have resulted in an arrest.
