Okay, that&#8217;s fine.  I only know what I&#8217;ve read, which is apparently different than what you&#8217;ve read.  I have seen at least one list that contained a list that included Amazon, eBay, Barnes &amp; Noble, and Memoria Press.  I don&#8217;t have any kind of official stats regarding the number of hsers who are participating, nor to what extent.  Maybe you&#8217;re better informed than I am, so be it.<br \/>\nMy primary point was that we have a common &#8220;enemy&#8221; (for lack of a better word.)  I think that most of us can agree that the Pearls should be put out of business and made to wear a scarlet &#8220;A&#8221; for &#8220;Abusive.&#8221;  Let&#8217;s stick to that.  Let&#8217;s stick to helping our fellow travelers to find better ways to discipline their children.  Instead of turning on one another, let&#8217;s use that energy to equip parents so that they no longer feel so desperate that they must turn to maniacs for advice.  Haranguing a woman (who was anti-Pearl) until she shut down her blog did nothing to stop the Pearls.<br \/>\n&#8220;Almost Lazarus&#8221;:  thanks for the link.  I want you to know that there are plenty of Christians who are against these people.
