Oh, come on.  Even *I* wouldn't go that far.  We don't believe any of the
filthy untruths this man has to offer, so why should we believe what he has
to say about the content of his mail.  No, the closedmouthed Christians may
not be quick to tear down what Black has to say (perhaps they do believe some
of it and are ashamed to admit it publicly), but I doubt they'd rush off
private letters of support to him.  But, let's ask.  Paul?  (Dub*)  Larry?
"charley"?  Have you been sending notes of support to Black?

Good point.  After all, anyone who survived it is obviously biased, and of
course so is anyone else who admits to witnessing aspects of it?  Thus
there cannot be proof.

Be prepared to take plenty more.  Those like Black are all around with 
plenty more to offer unless we speak up.
