Dan, you said something long ago that still resonates. You said that if you spoke to the congregation, and if some spikey-haired lesbian came up to you and told you how much she liked your sermon, you would have to re-consider what you had just said.

missyme, I would ask you to take the opposite tack. You have had a wide range of Freepers, from many different denominations and faiths, call into doubt what Benny Hinn is doing with his ministry. I know that if I had taken a certain position on an issue, and had freepers from so many diffrent walks of life say I was on the wrong path - well, I would seriously examine that path or position.

You are defending something you believe in strongly, and we all have done that - but I would hope you would look at what some of your fellow freepers are saying about Benny Hinn, and take a minute and consider what they are saying. They are worth such consideration, even if you end up disregarding what they are saying. Dan and I are very far apart on matters of Christian faith - but if he told me I was off base on something, I would give sober consideration to his counsel, because he has proven over the years that he offers a sound, different point of view that can give a different perspective than what I alone might consider. That is one of the key powers of this website, and I would hope you would avail yourself of it in this discussion.
