Ok, I’ll bite, just this once (but don’t expect me to keep handing out tidbits everytime a troll comes a-beggin’).

Anyway, for starters, patrica, it helps to, y’know, click the provided links before offering a dumbassed counterargument of sorts via half-formed anecdote (not the plural of data, natch).

From the CRC statement:

“We place a very high value on KAIROS, and thank God that the Christian Reformed Church can be a member denomination,” Adema said in an interview. “With many other Christian denominations, through KAIROS we have been able to promote justice and hope in many parts of the world, standing up for marginalized and vulnerable people.”

Sounds like one of Canada’s major denominations values its relationship with and the work done by KAIROS. YMMV, of course.

(Serioiusly, sucking back too much socon kool-aid rots more than just teeth.)

Furthermore, if the people in your church don’t know what KAIROS does, its incumbent upon them to educate themselves. I have a hard time believing that if they did educate themselves of KAIROS policies and programs (and by extension, what their own denomination supports, since if it is indeed a KAIROS member, it helped put those policies and programs in place) such as helping raped women in the Congo, or human rights awareness in Indonesia, and so on, that the majority of them would be against it.

But it wasn’t accidental. There’s a pattern there, and a tightly scripted trajectory being charted by the rightwing socon religious fundamentalist in the PMO.
