I am a friend of Adventist people and a lover of truth.

I am not an enemy of Adventism.

I am not saying we are categorizing Ellen White in the biblical context of a false prophet.

Animal lover that I am, a cougar I am not.

I am a lover of truth, a worshipper of freedom, a celebrant at the altar of language and purity and tolerance.

Who knows the minds of men and how they reason and what their methodology is? But I am not going to extrapolate from the General Conference backing out on my book and make it a personal issue.
