In defense of mikewaters, I teach the Priests and we use the same manual, of course. We skip around here and there, but that particular lesson is coming up in the next few weeks, so it is possible that he heard it on Sunday.

I think I will invite a bi-racial family to attend my lesson and talk to the boys about their experience. Would be more interesting than anything I could say on the topic.

In thirty years in the Church, I've never heard this quote, and I'd guess that most of us here haven't either.

Sorry, I don't buy it.
No I obviously don't buy it thus my "gettysburgh" quote.

Trust me, reality is very much in place. Ask your professor friend what it's like to get that kind of publicity.

Professor friend? Who is that? I don't have any professor friends as I'm fully at war with academia.

Will T Blue be shocked if any teacher in the country uses the quote?

Wow, we have really moved forward if even the mullahs think it is such a terrible quote that nobody would use it.

In that case, LET'S TAKE IT OUT.

I can't remember his name except that he was on some show 10 years ago viewed by less than 1,000 people.

It's still a moral choice, even if NO ONE watched it.

I apologize for saying he was/is full of shit. I didn't want to swear, but I really couldn't think of another expression that describes his past and current obfuscation.
