Note: I received the e-mail below from a realist in Atlanta and thought you would find it helpful. I have used the chat name Historical Realist for years. Bill here is right. When speaking to your firends, it is helpful to describe yourself as a Historical Realist.

Subject: Thank you for the books!!
Dear Pat:
Thank you soooo much for the books and CD, I will be sending you a check shortly. Congrats on the new little one in your family. I was sorta playing with words a bit and I was thinking it might be kinda cool to call the organization INSOHR (pronounced InSoar) International Society of Historical Realists. I think just calling somebody a "realist" is a very general statement and won’t raise a question other than that you look at things realistically. There are Christians out there that consider themselves to be realists as well. I think being a Historical realist is more interesting and will ask "why do you say Historical realist" and thus it opens us a line of communication to talk about it.
Reading more into the bible on my research, going back to the Parable of Lazarus and the Beggar. Jesus made it quite clear than when the beggar died he went to ABRAHAM'S side speaking of the Seed of Abraham to and for the Ancient Striates. The more I read the more I am understanding your concept and the truth more and more. But people still laugh at me when I try to explain them the basic premise of AD 70.
Pat I am reading your book thru for the 8th time and every time I have found something I missed the first time. I think it's so great how you cover all the bases in it to leave very little argument. You make your position so clear that once somebody reads it, they can’t help but understand this probably is what happened. I 100% agree. As I have told you before I am using the Parallel bible to study the word Gentiles and no four translations ever agree with it. UNTIL Isaiah, but the word Gentiles is often changed to Nations. I would like more concrete evidence on the Gentiles to get my point across, can you help?
