Nope, you're not one of the 'vicious attackers'.

If the second, no, not so far anyhow. I was suggesting basic research and documentation for what you are claiming, not necessarily names. But wait. In our own civil law system, intended to protect the safety of children, do not the names of charged defendants become public record? How else can a crime be tried?

If I personally knew of 5 pastors who taught the no-medicine doctrine, I would be man enough to list them all in any relevant discussion, such as "Doctrine, What They Believe." If doing so made the ministers mad--so what--we are talking about potential child abuse, correct? If you really had the hard evidence on your side, that should bring with it some confidence, instead of a long tap dance. So, please share again WHY you wish to withhold your personal knowledge of people and places? (Sorry, I haven't read whole thread. So someone will post a Dead Horse icon, I suppose.)
I'm not going to list them. I fight that system from within and have been instrumental in bringing folks out of the system without harming their relationship with God. As I said, if that decision is wrong I'll have to live with it, I'm doing what I believe is the correct response to the issue.

Fair enough. And that is the Catholic Approach. It's been in the news for the past decade or so, because the "inside approach" did not accomplish much during the previous 500 years. Oh, wait, it did help preserve the priesthood, as well as the peoples' faith in something or other.

Ok. It does work.
