Someone should write a letter to the Calgary Herald thanking PBI for helping create that old senile fool. They are getting away with what they did IMO.
It isn't just their doctrine and educational system that was off-kilter, from what I understand it was a pretty hellish place for some students to go. Abuse, neglect, all that stereotypical "good stuff" that you would expect to be associated with a fundamentalist church run institution operating very hands off from the larger organization.

I know of some unconfirmed stories from as late as the latter half of the 90s. At the same time I know some pretty remarkable people that have come out of that system too.
