consider it beyond the scope of Christian concern to effect social change except through the conversion of individuals, a process which can take place regardless of contexts and suggested identifications.
On the other hand, where the path taken by the trial judge through confused or
conflicting evidence is not at all
apparent, or there are difficult issues of law that need to be confronted but which the trial judge has circumnavigated without explanation, or where (as here) there are
conflicting theories for why the trial judge might have decided as he or she did, at least some of which would clearly constitute reversible error, the appeal court may in some circumstances
consider itself unable to give effect to the statutory right of appeal.
