Hi Steve,

I assume you wrote the below with humor in mind.  In my experience on and
near the trail, I've not been in one church of any denomination that had a
desire to manipulate or remove anyone's 'fleece.'  However, I've been
personally fleeced by a couple of thru-hikers [I won't elaborate, it's not
worth it,] nevertheless, these are a rarity among thru-hiking community.
The opposite of what you implied has been my experience.  For example:
Members of the Baptist Church in Blairsville, GA took a group of us out for
dinner, springing for the check and took us to a incredible Passion Week
play which had a cast of hundreds, not mindful at all that we weren't
dressed like they and smelled a little different, and we weren't Baptists.
Certainly not a fleece job.  rusty

Hello, Pilgrim,

(He said, adjusting his ten gallon hat, and his chaps.)

Sly, reference your post, dated 9-27-03,  We see them as pilgrims, said
the Rev. John Carter, the minister of St. John's Episcopal Church on Main
Street in Salisbury.

Allegory.  Ministers are full of it

Simply replace pilgrim with sheep.  Sheep come with valuable fleece,
heh, heh, heh, and are to be shorn.  This will reveal our collective value.

Steve
