Wisdom of the Fathers
In consequence of one of their pastors preaching "heretical doctrines" from the church pulpit, on Sunday, August thirteenth, 1676, "an extraordinary court" was held, and [Deacon] Dirck Wesselse Ten Broeck was one of those to hear the case. They passed judgment in words that carry wisdom to all generations: "Church disagreements should be consumed in the fire of love."

Anyway - hope you had a good time in Texas!
I did, thank you.
