You're so kind. I will say I have enjoyed your contributions to INGO too. For reasons I probably shouldn't put in the publicly accessible visitor messages section. Let's just say I don't roll my eyes and think "OY, that's why women get a bad rap" when I read your posts. If you ever make it up to Indy, lunch is on me.
Greetings from a fellow Kentuckian now transplanted to Indiana. Your thread is a good one and a lot of Christians wonder about these things. At the same time, it might very well be taken off the board (don't worry if it does, no big deal). I'm a pastor and will gladly converse with you on this subject if you wish.
