I understand your viewpoint. There is a minister even though I disagree with him that I like to listen to out of Houston on Sunday nights. He got shredded and the whole thing was slightly over the top. Of course that being said I made a negative comment about Pat Robertson on one of thethreads.

I would put people like Pat Robertson in a different category. The Republican and Conservative movement owes much to Pat Robertson. Who cannot forget his performance in IOWA in the 88 race that changed things forever. That being said he is different. Not too many religious leaders are or represent a serious face of the Republican party. In other words when he says things we often have defend it or least deal with it in the political realm. Whether its on storms or on his statements as to the State of Israel.

However you are correct. A little Christian charity should be pointed out. I am getting a tad tired of having to defend the integrity of every Bishop or Cardinal that speaks out on this immigration issue. OF course like Pat Robertson they have entered the political sphere both now and in the past so they are a little different from the average religious leader or Preacher. Still, honest criticism should be tempered a tad by a little humility and God's love if we are speaking from a Christian viewpoint on the thread.
