Well then, it sounds like guilt by association.

Lie down with dogs...get up with fleas.

Kennedy has extremely close ties to these folks, and vice versa. You can whine about "guilt by association" all you want, but they find each other's company to be congenial, and dominionists are not wont to give the title "Christian" to those who disagree with their rantings.

I've been told by a student of the Rushdoony/North clan that I am not a Christian (I am a Catholic), and that I could expect to have my civil liberties curtailed in a theonomist society--to include not being permitted ownership of any weapon, or anything that might BE a weapon. "2nd Amendment? We don't NEED no steenkin' 2nd Amendment!"

Yes, I've had a few Christian friends claim that Catholics are not genuine Christians. Of course some of them were the same ones who said I was going to Hell because I agreed with Charles Stanley on the doctrine of eternal security.

They are wrong on both accounts.

Like you, I am Catholic and I've been told I am not a Christian by three FReeper Calvinists' I "could" name.

Rushdooney is dead, but his movement is NOT. This is a worthwhile post, CP. Thanks for posting it and for the ping.

And win recognition:

Ashcroft also said, "Obviously, the Center for Christian Statesmanship and Dr. D. James Kennedy are a wonderful addition to the voices that need to be heard in the United States Capitol and in America." (Ashcroft received the first "Distinguished Christian Statesman" award from the Center in 1996.)

You consider yourself a Freeper. I consider myself a Freeper. But I don't consider our doctrines the same, or even similar. Just because people associate with each other at one level, doesn't mean that they are guilty of each other's sins.

Why so eager to denounce Christians in the limelight like Kennedy?
