I'm concerned about a recent posting about WBT/SIL. I thought they'd |
|
|
pretty much been denounced as a right-wing organization involved in |
|
|
ideological manipulation and cultural interference, including Vietnam |
|
|
and South America. A commission from Mexican Academia denounced them in |
|
|
1979 as " a covert political and ideological institution used by the |
|
|
U.S. govt as an instrument of control, regulation, penetration, espionage and |
|
|
repression." |
|
|
My concern is that this group may be seen as acceptable and even |
|
|
praiseworthy by readers of soc.religion.christian. It's important that |
|
|
Christians don't immediately accept every "Christian" organization as |
|
|
automatically above reproach. |
