I have no doubt that Timlan's characterization of MB as both intellectual with a powerful mind and bitter venom spewing preacher are on the money as that reconciles the two extreme views of him I have heard repeatedly over the years.

My only concern is that I think way too many times people excuse the bad or wrong things about a person because of their other, good qualities.

They don't cancel each other out. It is a shame that some other elders could not have helped MB face his bitterness and realize that it and his venom was not a balanced view of the Gospel and it did nothing to further his cause.

If MB could have been more balanced he very well could have led the AMF to great success.

From all accounts he was a fascinating intelligent man.
