I just received from you yesterday the booklets The Bible: Fact or Fiction, Marijuana: What They Aren’t Telling You, and Evolution and Creation: What Both Sides Miss. And I needed to tell you how surprised I was at your points of view, facts, and critiques. Excellent. I’ve glanced through some of your books before as they passed through my hands, but this is my first knuckles-down reading, and I like your authors, books, and church very much. Thanks for the free literature. God bless you richly in your ministries.

The recent general election in December 2019, when the SNP won 48 out of the 59 Scottish seats in the UK Parliament, has emboldened those pressing to leave.
