 RIGHT ON RICH! I'm behind you 100% on this. When Don Black began posting
 his "RACIAL/RELIGIOUS DIATRIBES", there were only a few who ACTIVELY OPPOSED
 his Hate-Baiting! Those who did counter Black's "honest questions" have
 been continually rebuked by a good number of Christians. 

 As Rich points out, there have been MANY RECENT REPORTS of groups connected
with the Identity Christian movement(s), and/or their off-shoots. Reports of
a group known as "The Order" have come to light in Arkansas and SEVERAL OTHER
 STATES! Some Groups plan "CROSS-BURNINGS" on Sunday April 20th to honor
the memory of Adolph Hitler for cryin' out loud! This activity is becoming
 even more prevelant in the USA EVERY DAY! I plan to post something in the
near future about the recent "REVIVAL" of such groups in the USA, and else-
-where.

Personally, I'm HORRIFIED by the "STRANGLE-HOLD" these type of groups, many
of whom operate under the "guise" of Christianity, are gaining in OUR society.

P.S. Why have the ANTI-Mormon, ANTI-Secular, ANTI-Homosexual, ANTI-ETC.
     people been so SILENT REGARDING Black and/or Right-Wing "CHRISTIAN"
     Neo-Nazis?
