Kerry's introduction drew a protest from one member who stood and shouted, "Sit down ... you big phony," before he was hustled out clutching a Bible.

I'm sure Kerry immediately leaped to the defense of this gentleman's free speech rights, didn't he? And no doubt Linda Ronstadt and Whoopi Goldberg immediately issued statements of support....

And is anyone else tired of the "faith without deeds" quote? Is this the only part of the Bible that John Kerry has read? It seems to me to be a bad scriptural choice for someone who goes around proclaiming how his faith won't influence his public works! Only John Kerry has the gall to 1. yammer on about his "devout Catholicism," 2. announce that it would be wrong to let his "devout Catholicism" affect his public policy (except for those exceptions when it is to his benefit) AND then 3. criticize those who don't show their "faith" by their "works." Is there a word for a triple flip? Or is this a quadruple now?

You've heard of a triple-half-gainer-back-flip?

This is a triple-whole-loser-back flip.

Excellent points. The libs are shameless. They practically wear their inconsistencies on their sleeves.

This ritual church visitation by the Dems is so silly. Every knows it's a farse. The intellectual vanguard of the democrat party, the bitter socialists who despise Christianity, know to keep mum as their man shows up, bible under arm, to preach the word. They know it's a farce. He knows it's a farce. They know he knows it's a farce. We know it's a farce. The media knows it's a farce. You have to wonder if the only ones not in on the joke are the people sitting in the pews!

My guess is that they know it's a farce, too. But it makes no difference. It's a familiar ritual and its artifice has already been accounted for.

I have a feeling though that Kerry is so snooty, so wooden -- so unfunky -- that the metro church crowd might not make it to the polls in the numbers the Democrats are hoping for.

"It is written, what does it mean my brother if you have faith if there are no deeds? Faith without works is dead,"

I don’t this guy understands this quote… its as much a call to the individual to act in faith when the way may seem blocked that God will open up an provide the way….

Like time when you don’t eve want to get out of bed because all hope in lost so what the use….. get up and ACT in faith that God win open the doors and provide the way

Acting in Faith is not sitting on you butt waiting till God provides…

It not deliberating go out looking to other to provide… there not god…..

And it’s not you thinking your god and your works will provide to other replacing god….. Kerry is of the state is god camp…. That is not Faith with Works
