But I will go as far as possible--pretty far, in this case--and say, MERF broadcasts would be extremely helpful and reliable.

I also think these people are reliable: Middle East Resources, South Holland, IL

Thanks for that. The Canadian board of MERF is made up of all CanRC people, but then again, their radio broadcasts are also supported by the CRC -- I think there's a partnership between the Back to God Hour and MERF. I know that not everything and everyone CRC is tainted, but it does raise questions. So, that's why I ask.
