Character Counts - Revisions
www.PreciousHeart.net

We ready this first edition for review.  The story substantially uplifts a Christian Freemason and seriously challenges the SBC anti-Mason documents along with David Barton, John Ankerberg, and James Holly—with character counting as the hammer driving the wedge of credibility between them. Hopefully with a foreword from a notable Freemason, the following edits will be in the next revision, most of which are simple style issues, none of which affect cogency.  I will be grateful for any suggestions.  One friend noted that I used "too" too many times, and she was right, most of which will be culled in the second edition. E-mail me mgmaness@earthlink.net; I hope to incorporate these and any other good suggestions early in 2007. Thanks for the help to date, and I welcome more. Have great day. Sincerely, Michael Glenn Maness
