Well some of us are saying that. Daniel is convinced that Piper wrote it, but he offers no internal or external evidence for his claim. Poor diluted boy. |

Now we know the truth. | The folks at Magherafelt Reformed Baptist were convinced I was a 55 year old man because I commented on their pastor's blog using GI Williamson's picture. When the pastor in question pointed this out to me, I replied by saying that I am sure GI would be flattered to know that people think he is only 55 (when, in reality, he is in his mid-80s). |
