I saw an article about this bunch in the local paper(Ft.Lauderdale News &
Sun-Sentinel). I didn't think it was weird enough to send a bit about it
to the list. In fact, I didn't even think about it. I guess when you
live in the same area with people like this and all these little churches
and even Rev. D. James Kennedy, Xtian weirdness loses its impact. Hep
me! Hep me pleeze!
Kallisti!
