Hi,
If she comes to Missouri, KC area, would love to meet her. She could visit
either First Baptist Church in Raytown--or esp the Family First church in
Kansas--Jimmie Johnson is the pastor of a huge church...he is one of the
leaders in the evolution is a theory, not science movement in Kansas and,
according to the director of the Mainstream Coalition, travels with quite the
entourage. Or, could visit up north of the River where the moderate County
Commissioners [and the Chamber of Commerce] are concerned at one of the new
County Commissioners who meets with some friends about a half hour before the
County Commission meeting to pray--not illegal, but could have ramification on
some county situations (i.e. they appoint some members of my library, for
example, which could have privacy implications, raise problems in that we
recently started a GLBT collection, etc.) Or, she could interview one of the
very very few evangelical pastors of a large church here who was pretty much th
e only one opposing the Iraqi war and who, I understand, is still under
pressure to repent by the other large church pastors...(they must meet like the
large public library directors meet <g>)
Or, she could meet with some of the people, both pro and con, in the KC area
involved in issues like stem cell research, etc.
What a grand trip she is taking.
So far she sounds pretty balanced in her reporting.
Thanks for this!
Best,
Marlena in Missouri
