Gossip and the new book. With all due respect to Jim and Nancy. I do not conclude Don and Andy have to defend themselves. In this case anyway. We all sin, don't we? Even Jesus lost his temper and threw the tables over at the temple. There are usually many sides to a story. Even though having their dirty laundry hung out in public is not pleasant, it still doesn't take away from how well intentioned Andy and Don strived to be all their lives. And succeeded. Sometimes it's even beneficial to take a look at that laundry, so the rest can avoid the same pitfalls. Andy and Don were so spiritual, I bet they would have took the book in stride. Especially if others could learn from them. From all my observations, and even before I read the book, it doesn't seem like much of it was a well kept secret anyway.
