Mac, what surprised me at my friend George's church was not the question about what we were doing there...that's just good stewardship. There were unfamiliar people lurking around and recent vandalism. What surprised mt was the fact that no caucasian had ever been a member or contributed in a significant way. Then, the media had no business poking around my choice as that church as a place to make a donation.

But, you've got to remember that this is Kentucky; not a particularly liberal place.

I just wish things were different. And, sadly, there probably won't be any earthshaking changes in my lifetime.

That's why, with EVERY interaction, we need to appreciate the diversity, culture and friendship of others who may be different in some way from us.

That's part of what life's about.

Let's all be kind to and appreciate each other.

Russ
