I have to agree with Burgy (which I do not do 100% of the time) on this
point. It is always nice to read things that support one's own point view but
that is not far afield of drinking one's own bath water. (disgusting
thought). Although I do not like writings like Spong but that is one way to
learn some things which which I really disagree.
Burgy also has often said many nice things about some not very admirable
people. That is just his nature. and does not necessarily convey any factual
data.
