Honestly, I am confused about who said this. The person shown talking to the reporter in the video is not Jerry. And they say Scott's Dad's name is Joe. Perhaps this was another relative named Joe, and they thought it was the father? |

Also mentioned was a decision by the jury. Unless I'm very much mistaken, there is no need for a jury when the plea is guilty. But reporters are human and small inaccuracies are known to occur. Even make the odd mistake myself, which Mrs Bemused writes in a little book and . . . .

Another thing I've noticed on audio is that no one ever pronounces Kennell correctly! It does make you wonder how close of attention these reporters actual pay to this life-and-death stuff that they report about. |

New Tribes Mission seeks to base their decisions on the Bible, especially when it comes to making disciplinary decisions about their members. Here is an excerpt from one of their internal emails: "We are deeply saddened by abuse that happened to our MKs and seek to provide appropriate responses to them. We also have an obligation to make discipline determinations for our members. We seek to do both based on the foundation of scripture." [My emphasis] This sounds noble enough. Anyone care to jump in here and offer any suggestions on WHICH Scriptures were formed the foundation for their decision not to dismiss Gary Earl for his violent acts against children? |

But Jerry, the "Millstone" is figurative, whereas the rod is not, except well, the rod for the backs of fools - that one is figurative too. Spare the rod or board, spoil the child; spare the millstone, save the work... Isn't that how it goes? |

O.k. I know the answer. It's the scripture that says "Cast not your Earls before swine" Matthew 7:6 Surely that gets a chocolate fish  or an Amen from Raz at the very least.
