<<<snip>>>Happy Friday Listees,<<<snip>>>

It's monday where I live...

<<<snip>>>I've been following with mild interest the flame/counterflame
thread regarding Ken Wilfy.  He, like other VW entrepreneurs
is obviously out to enhance his financial status.  I'm ok with that
as there are some good deals posted.<<<snip>>>

okay...

<<<snip>>>Notwithstanding the comic relief of Luke vs John lately I would
like to see is some separation of church from VW.  I'm sure there's much
inspirational literature many of us would benefit from reading. My question
is whether a Vanagon mailing list is the proper place to suggest that such
enlightenment.<<<snip>>>

Ken's Biblical verse signature seems inocuious enough.  It's the same exact
thing as someone who signs "'88 GL Driver" or "'87 Westie Syncro with
dripping heads".  The reference to a verse is not required reading.  Maybe
some of us would benefit from reading inspirational literature.  A healthy
dose of patience here, a shot of tolerance there, would make this world -
and this list - a better place.

<<<snip>>>Actually, I don't really know what Wilfy has for sale these days.
I no longer read his posts.  There are many other vendors who
simply sell VW parts--not Jesus.<<<snip>>>

Ken isn't selling Jesus - to you or anyone else.  He's simply stating his
love for his Saviour.  And those who understand that find no offense, for
it is not offensive.
