The chapters in question were literally forced into the novel -- and were

The quick and easy answer to the subject question is: they (including

Maybe. Or it may be that I can forgive Cal Worthinginton for cheating me

This idea is SO wonderful that I think we'll try to save up to go to SLC

My feelings about the Principle and its semi-repeal (it's only sort of
repealed) is that if it DOES return before The Millenial, it will be
because the Lord says to renew it. If it doesn't return, it will because
