Kevin, It appears to me from your post above that you feel a story told to you by someone else, is considered by you, " a fact ". Facts go hand in hand with things we would say are " proof " of things that happen. In looking back at all of the discussions we have had at this forum, in discussions about things that Mike Castro is purported to have done over the years, the way I remember it, the friends of Mike Castro took great exception to " stories heard " as being presented as " facts ", of what may have happened. I except that you " feel " that you have confidence in the information about what happened to this girl you mention. I have know way on my part to " know " if it is true or not. With that said, I have heard stories about Jobe, and Jobe also did a few things which caused me some concern, I had a talk with him about it, and nothing similiar has occurred since. We have never used Jobe as a Baby Sitter so I'm not sure what your refering to on that issue. I told Jobe that in fairness, since I cannot know the truth of the stories told about him, I must error on the side of my childrens saftey and be watchful of them, and who they spend time with. On the other hand, I don't want to demonize Jobe absent any specific proof of his wrongdoing. My wife is fully aware of the stories about Jobe, and we have chosen our way to approach this particular situation. Jobe is eccentric in demeanor, but then some might say the same of me. Regarding Jobes references to girls, and what they may be wearing. He's a single guy, what can you say :-) I know some will be offended by his manner, if they are, they should tell Jobe what they think. We all have our unique ways of presenting ourselves to the world. If someone thinks Jobe has done something unlawful, or offensive, then they can bring up the issue with him, and seek thier remedy in court. I would do the same if I felt I was experienceing a problem like this with Jobe. Regarding your last comment about biblical names. What is within our minds is a secret place, only know to ourselves, that is true for each one of us. What we are on the outside, in form and action, can be a very differant thing than what is the truth of us within. Maybe Jobe, or me, or even you Kevin is a monster inside, but we present something differant on the outside. I don't really care what anyone uses as a name, like we all do, we must determine the character of the people in our lives by thier actions, and from other information we may deem as a reliable representaion of the type of person they are. You can be assured Kevin that I do not take the Facade of a persons form and actions, as representing the " whole " of what they are. I see that you are very concerned Kevin, and it is always my hope that people treat the others around them with respect, and consideration.
