Just seems to me that Danny's side could at least make an attempt at being honest. As time goes on I'm starting to realize that the problems at 3abn go way beyond Danny. He's simply the most visible manifestation of the problems there. Something just smells rotten in Thompsonville.
QUOTE(PeacefulBe @ Nov 28 2007, 09:42 PM)  Bob, while this is not encouraging news for those of us who hope that 3abn will take the high road to transparency and obvious honesty, and for those of us who have also been told by Dr. Walt Thompson that bringing the truth to light is the point of the law suit, I think it is a bit of a stretch to lay the responsibility for this development - that you are "now told that the plaintiffs, without a protective order, won't authorize my being able to inspect and copy what the plaintiffs were required to auto-disclose." - at Walt Thompson's feet. This sounds more like a nasty legal manuever to me. I guess you are going to have to seek intervention by the court to get what the court has said you are entitled to. Reminds me of portions of a Chris Isaak song, "Wicked Game". Sad that Christians are embroiled in such a game. |

QUOTE(PeacefulBe @ Nov 28 2007, 08:42 PM) This sounds more like a nasty legal manuever to me. I'm unsure that this can really be the case. An attorney for their side had earlier assured me that the attorneys are in no way trying to hide the truth. Thus, the prompting for this maneuver cannot be coming from them, if I was told correctly. Thus, if the blame for this does not fall at the feet of the board chairman, it just further shows that someone else is pulling the strings, and Walt is clueless as to what is going on. In other words, if this was done at the prompting of the plaintiffs as claimed, that would have to mean that it was done at the prompting of the board, of which Walt is supposed to be the chief. And Walt does not seem to be the type of person who can dream up nasty legal maneuvers and then order attorneys to do certain things whether they like it or not. |

I'll never forget Walt's frustrated reply when I suggested to him a way to stop this whole affair right at the beginning. He looked at me, exclaiming, - You know Danny!!! I wonder if that could be the problem Dr. Walt Thompson encounters? Danny knows that he is lost if all the cards are put squarely on the table. That is why neither Linda nor any of her supporters have been permitted at any of the many "hearings" held at 3ABN, The Thompsonvile Church, etc. -------------------- "Any fact that needs to be disclosed should be put out now or as quickly as possible, because otherwise the bleeding will not end."

What was your suggested way to stop it, you don't mention it here. 2. During the campmeeting where you and the doctor were asked not to come back, Linda was still a member of the board and could have gone. The three of you >chose< to send a letter instead. 3. Linda >chose< others to represent her at the ASI meetings instead of going herself. 4. The Thompsonville Church asked her to come and talk to them and she >chose< to drop her membership instead. - FHB -------------------- But beware. Anger, fear, aggression. The dark side are they.

Johann, A complete avoidance of the questions indicates that there is something to hide. If you are in a position, and you claim to be, to respond to these questions and claims . . . it would seem that you would want to dispel any doubt they may raise, yet you completely avoid them. BTW, of the meetings mentioned you were only available on, this soil, for the campmeeting one - so I guess the questions you offer can be placed on your side of the court . . . "Were you there?" at ASI, at the Thompsonville meetings - yet you claim to "know" what happened at each. - FHB -------------------- But beware. Anger, fear, aggression. The dark side are they.
