27. Hey, expecting mainstream Christians to be responsible for Tony Alamo
(a nutcase from way back--he kept his late wife's body laid out in bed for years back in the 1960s or 1970s) is like expecting the Democrats to be responsible for Lyndon LaRouche.

Really, it's an exact analogy. Nutcase CALLS himself something that he isn't.

The nutcases do not consider US to be their co-religionists, especially since my denomination just voted to allow uncloseted gay bishops.

We're not even on the same planet theologically.
