Thanks. This is always true, right? Divorce, war, etc. So, were your parents in a fight with Waydale? You were shot in the crossfire from a fight between Waydale and your parents? I thought Waydale was an open and free forum in an open and free society. Who is fighting where you are caught in the crossfire? And if Waydale is a forum, how is it a party in a fight? Or did the fight take place on Waydale? Real questions. I'm not arguing with you. I'm not doubting you. I start with acknowledging that I know next to nothing. I'm just trying to understand what you mean, because what you've said so far is not clear.

Sure, but we're using him as a case study to dissect his anti-social behavior/conduct/exploits/results.

Seems to me he was very talented. At what? At being a conman. So talented, in fact, that we are still talking about him and asking questions, nearly 50 years after his death.

When it comes to the delivery of the sermons, this was something different. vpw used the works of others to write the sermons, but was able to deliver the content with all the skill of the carnival barker. If you handed him a completed sermon, he could deliver it looking full of conviction. He studied Homiletics- or how to deliver a sermon. HOWEVER, his skill at ONLY delivering the work of others says a lot about vpw, especially since he rarely gave due credit.
