Eidsor,
I think that you are doing so well outside of TLC. I am happy for you. You have been so responsible and deserve respect. Don't even try to defend yourself against anyone because there is no need. Stay strong and you'll be fine.
Your Friend,

so long as the priest, that professional negator, slanderer and poisoner of life, is regarded as a superior type of human being, there cannot be any answer to the question: What is truth?

When a religion is good, I conceive it will support itself; and when it does not support itself, and God does not take care to support it so that its professors are obliged to call for help of the civil power, 'tis a sign, I apprehend, of its being a bad one.

Marijuana clearly has medicinal value.
Thousands of seriously ill Americans have

Religion is comparable to a childhood neurosis.

My initial response was to sue her for defamation of character, but then I realized that I had no character.

I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation, whose purposes are modeled after our own -- a God, in short, who is but a reflection of human frailty. Neither can I believe that the individual survives the death of his body, although feeble souls harbor such thoughts through fear or ridiculous egotism.
--Albert Einstein, German-born American physicist
Some mornings, it's just not worth chewing through the leather straps.
