I don't have to be told. I already know I'm a lunatic! :)

This question is poorly phrased -- it should read, "Is it possible to sit in a church for 20 years and NOT know what's in the mind of your pastor?" If you're an intelligent person, you wouldn't be in a church if you didn't know what it was teaching. The words of your pastor, however, can quite often step away from what the church's teachings are. Obviously, Wright is an example of just that. He is an embarrassment to the congregation and, if I'm not mistaken, the current reverend at that parish is not real happy about it. I could be wrong but I certainly wouldn't be surprised!

The question, the way it is phrased, is misleading and manipulative.

For the publicity. Wright is a publicity seeker.
