I think that it is reasonable and fair to note that there are/were individuals within the ACOG movement who are/were more thoughtful and spiritual than others. Moreover, it is clear that some individuals (like Ron Dart) were not motivated by some of the same forces that animated others in our former culture. Ron Dart helped me to start thinking again and begin to emerge from my entrapment in Armstrongism - for that, I too am grateful. As for the methods he used to fund his ministry after leaving CGI, at least he didn't fall back on three tithes on gross income to do it! He may not have walked as far away from that culture as you and I have, but he was definitely a voice for thought, reason and compassion in a culture in which those things were often in short supply.Miller Jones/Lonnie C Hendrixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02865316200703641028noreply@blogger.com
