+Dear ABM,
+I am enjoying our dialogue.  You indicated that you were not trying to change my mind, and my view is also that I am not trying to get you to renounce William Branham as a prophet.  My primary intention is to engage in a dialogue that will cause those in the message to have a better understanding as to why many are leaving, and will continue to leave, the message.
+I have stated that William Branham was a persistent liar with respect to many experiences that he related over the pulpit, and I will likely get back to additional examples of this later.  You prefer to use the word "exaggerate" but you also have stated that you understand why I believe William Branham lied.

Branham and put it into piles: one pile of exaggerations, one pile of proven truth, one pile of uncertainty, for me the pile of truth is a mountain compared to the other two. While your questions and positions are certainly thought-provoking and many, and maybe some of them cause me to adjust my piles a bit, I still feel like I am looking at a mountain of truth.
+I would like to look at one of William Branham's fundamental positions which I believe has no basis in the Bible.  This is a doctrine that is especially loved by message followers - the significante of the eagle.  This is reflected in some message followers
