Nicolson takes a giant leap, on page 192, he says, "The eccentric Bedwell, and drunk pornographer Thompson..."
This is called historical revisionism. It is in line with the sensational reporting that the smallest unreliable details of badness be blown up to make the godly men the worst that ever lived. Just look at how King James is made into a tyrant and child abuser!

Wow, I am glad to see there are few out there that believe God's WORD. I pray for those that have a problem with it. There is places in the Bible where people drank and got drunk, and there is another place where they drank, and didn't get drunk. When they drank wine and didn't get drunk, they were drinking fruit of the vine unfermented called today grape juice. God says wine is a mocker and strong drink is raging and whosoever is decived thereby is not wise Proverbs 20:1 Much Love Lisa
