Re: [Pen-l] childhood in the SWP

that's right. It makes the SWP look good (at least relative to the
Catholic Church) that it would be extremely rare for an official to
respond that way. But it's possible that a few officials would respond
with this kind of BS.

No, it *not* possible.

Of course, the author was remembering an
experience he had as a boy (with the official's response likely
filtered through his mother). That means he could have a distorted
memory, one that would be encouraged by his new circle of friends.

I don't believe in repressed memories, but I do believe that this guy is capable of making things up in order to sell books.
