    They're talking about one individual!

    The Christians behind all of it from beginning to end were members of the UCC!

    I find lots of strange and/or misleading articles about Hawaii's history at least once a week.

    They often omit important facts, and as often gets the facts wrong.

    I saw part of a National Geographic article about Hawaii about a month ago. I don't have have a subscription and don't want one so I could only read the first two paragraphs.

    The first part of the article was such a disaster I was happy to press the back button.

    I don't expect anyone to move there for twenty years. I wouldn't even recommend it.

    Yet the moral of the story is take what you read about Hawaii especially its history with a grain of salt!

      That church preached tolerance. While practicing homophobia for many years.

        I was baptized into that church. I can tell you from experience they were very homophobic. They were so homophobic they became worthless to me. I don't care what they preach today. I'll never forgive them.
