Well, as you can see from my response to him, I would have done it
differently, but then we are different. Christians are not clones of each
other and what is right for one may not be the will of God for another.
I can't say for definite that God wants Jason to talk to DS, but what does
seem true is that some Christians should be talking to DS, whatever he
throws at them.
That's certainly my intention, anyway.
