- Theology that bites you in the back
“Everyone who is thinking of sending their child to New Saint Andrews College should read this as well. They pitch their network of illegal boarding houses as Christian homes where your children will be safe. But no one is safe when the pastor protects the criminal.” - The Open Letter Part 6: The Arranged Marriage
“Finally, if you plan to send your child to New Saint Andrews College, then let Miss Travis’ story warn you. The Christ Church elders truly believe that a convicted pedophile serving a life sentence for serial molestations of children is the very best they have to offer for your daughter’s hand in marriage. In fact, they think he’s ‘Mr. Right.’” - Canon Press Promo: Autographed copies of A Justice Primer
“Signed by Douglas Wilson & Randy Booth. Should be a collector’s item before sundown.” - On “the scandal in this”
“And if you send your daughter to New Saint Andrews College, he may well do the same thing to her because, as he freely admits, he sees no scandal in this. To be sure, he might just argue that it’s one of the ‘best things that can happen.’” - On The Christ Church Commitment to Loyalty: #FreeSpeechApocalypse
“I pledge to conduct myself in such a way that no one could ever question my loyalty to the peace and purity of Christ Church. This includes refusing to speak to any unauthorized person about grievances I might have, and includes refusing to hear any such criticisms as well. If commitment to this standard in any way compromises my conscience, then I understand that my resignation will be accepted, without notice, and without prejudice.” - On “digging up evil”
“The spirit of accusation has once again possessed Pastor Douglas Wilson of Christ Church, Moscow, in his attempt to smear the reputations of those who have wisely left the Kirk. . . .” - On Art: “The Sunday Funnies”
- Jamin Wight, Kirk Missionary
“Just wanted to let you know that after a several months of investigating, we are finally using the funds that we raised for relief efforts in Haiti. Jamin Wight is leaving tomorrow (Friday, 5/14) to go down to Haiti for a week.” - On the CREC Inquiry
“Pastor Doug Wilson of Christ Church, Moscow, successfully wrote the CREC Constitution to insulate himself from accountability while simultaneously creating the illusion that he is subject to denominational accountability. Mr. Wilson has now invited the CREC to form a committee to ask questions of Kirk officers whom he appointed. Likewise, this committee will review the primary record of documentation that he created. Given these facts, only one question remains unanswered: Has Mr. Wilson already drafted the final report that the CREC committee will adopt?” - Jamin Wight: Update from North Idaho Correctional Institution to TRC
“I truly feel like I am at home. I truly feel like I belong here.”
