The point Prax was trying to make, if I interpret his post correctly, is that some pastors consider saints to be in another social class, thereby creating a prejudice.
However, I won't argue that point with you, will you answer my other question?
And by the way, you don't need to call me Rev. Phelps, I'm no longer in the ministry.

Exactly right...intereting how he interpreted it as me comparing Pastors to racists.
