THE CHURCH OF PHILOSOPHICAL EXPLORATION (A.K.A. COPE MINISTRIES) PRESENTS:

THE VIRTUAL WALL OF INSPIRED FELLOWSHIP

Rev. Minister Angela Smith recognizes Priest John Ball and John Wycliffe as founding fathers of the Church Of Philosophical Exploration postmortem (we use postmortem because we recognize the humanity of the dearly departed regardless of mortal coil) resulting somewhat by inspiration from the Mormon Church as strange as that may sound to some.  You may know that the Mormon Church claims Martin Luther King, Jr. as a member subsequent to his passing.  If not, that's the basis of said recognition of Priest John Ball and John Wycliffe as founding fathers of this church.  This page displays both our Founding Fathers, Founding Mother (Rev. Minister Angela Smith), all Honorary Proselytizers who choose to officially publicly disclose our fellowship, and donor recognition.  (Remind you of "Lord of the Rings"?  #MeToo)
