Rick Warren just touches me as a lefty. Maybe I am wrong. It just doesnt surprise me that a member of his church would be doing a film like this.

They're lesbians, but the real secret is that one of them's an illegal alien. Oh brother.

“The Bible very clearly says that homosexual behavior is a sin, and Saddleback Church does not condone any behavior the Bible calls sinful,” reads the Saddleback statement, adding “We refuse to be judgmental about sin, and believe the good news of the Gospel is that God sent Jesus to set us free from the hurts, habits, and hang ups that keep us from living out the purposes for which we were created.”

The statement continues: “So, even as we believe that God has a definite standard of moral living, we also believe that God, first and foremost, loves all people. Therefore, people of all backgrounds, including those with a homosexual orientation, are welcome to participate in the church's outreach ministries, such as the HIV/AIDS Initiative and Celebrate Recovery.”

The part of the saddleback statemant "We refuse to be judgemental about sin..." threw me for a loop! Aren't Christians supposed to be judgemental about sin? or are we to water it down, so no one is offended? (I know the answer)

I skimmed this--the original article is very long--but the issue here is that gays/lesbians can't find a path to citizenship through marriage like straights can? Yeah, this is really the climate for me to care about this, when we have millions of people streaming over illegally. Like I'd care anyway, but I'm sure not looking for ways for more of them to get here and stay. And I don't listen to this mamby pamby modern Christian bilge anyway, but I would go out of my way to not listen to this woman's music.

A tacky gay-rights flick to make Ed Wood proud features the voice and music of a Christian singer

She may be a singer, but I very much doubt she's a Christian.

If she is a Christian, I'd hate to be her. God chastises those He loves, and His chastising is rarely 'subtle'.
