I once was recruited by a sect/denomination known as the Christian Alliance Church. These were some hardcore believers, not your garden variety churchgoer who deep down knows heaven is bullshit but prefers not to think rationally. The Alliance Church saw missionary work as part of their duty as good Christians, and [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=publicintellectual.wordpress.com&blog=1320464&post=364&subd=publicintellectual&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
