Bad Info Being Put Out

[E.Marquez]

Please do post this guy's name. I'll will be happy to speak to the group if they want to hear accurate information about churches.

Chas.

And for the WIN...... THAT ^^ is how a Statesman get the job done and the group supported... Not in your face, but calm, non confrontation positive information and forward progression.

No, not brown nosing...nothing to gain, nothing to lose, just calling it like I see it.

"brown nosing" That's a phrase that I haven't heard in a long, long time. Thanks for the memory.

What the attorney said leads to one logical conclusion: he's not pro-gun. He is either wrong about the law or deliberating misconstruing it. If he was pro-gun he'd take the time to get it right (he could be pro-gun and just be a lazy incompetent attorney...but I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt). I suspect he's anti-gun and didn't bother to get the law right because he was predisposed to interpret it as it suited his ideology....or he knows better and is merely using his position to further the anti-gun agenda. If he's not anti-gun, or pro-gun, he's an incompetent attorney.

The law is vast and complicated. I don't expect all competent attorneys to know all of it....but a competent attorney should know what he doesn't know.

If they knew the law they would not need $300/hour to research it.

Texas law notwithstanding, the official Methodist position/doctrine/constitution, or whatever it may be called, states that the United Methodist Church is anti-gun and guns are not allowed, etc., etc.

Yes, this is an area where the church and I differ. I carry in my church as it wasn't posted in the past and I'll check again tomorrow/soon. While my senior pastor hasn't said anything about carrying in church, he has made clear his views on guns (he likes 'em and ain't giving 'em up). Concealed means concealed.

We too are Methodists. I'd be more than a lot surprised to hear that come from the pulpit in our small town church but if and when it does, it will be time for the Oldgringo and his CC.

I suspect the anti-gun stance is probably not limited to the Methodists and Catholics?

Best wishes,

To you as well. No postings at my church this morning and I CCed.
