Thursday February 5, 2009: I will begin this thread just before I fly because of a couple of things I want to report.

She is married to a Catholic currently coming from the Southern Baptist (1848) denomination.

Recently, a friend sent me a request to post an article asking, "I'd like to see you do a post on the issue that same website brings up about a crisis in Catholic apologetics".
