Walt Jr
Jason,

The reason I wanted to go one on one was because I am going to be leaving
the list soon. I wanted to get a couple of people that would like to
continue a private correspondence with me. Hope that is okay with
you...you interested? I can assure you that once I get off the list, I
will be responding regularly to you. What do you think?

His,
Walt Jr.

What do I think? I think your word is about as good as a Confederate
Dollar. You have consistently ignored postings from me on the list and
off the list. Why should now be any different?

"I do understand what love is, and that is one of the reasons I can never
again be a Christian. Love is not self denial. Love is not blood and
suffering. Love is not murdering your son to appease your own vanity.
Love is not hatred or wrath, consigning billions of people to eternal
torture because they have offended your ego or disobeyed your rules.
Love is not obedience, conformity, or submission. It is a counterfeit love
that iscontingent upon authority, punishment, or reward. True love is
respect and admiration, compassion and kindness, freely given by a
healthy, unafraid human being."
