Salazar has gone over the edge ...
Referring to Focus on the Family: "They are the anti-christ of the world"
Look at "War of Words" clip.

Would not have believed it unless I heard the tape. Still having trouble. What an idiot. This guy is our Senator! This guy campaigned from such a middle-of-the-road, good ole-boy from a small town position. I guess now we know the road was Araphaoe (running through Bolder).
Curious that we haven't seen this same video up in Denver. Maybe I missed it.
According to Catholic doctrine it is quite feasible for an SBCer to attain heaven, but only because of the doctrines the SBC and the Church hold in common (i.e. Christ's Incarnation, His redemptive grace, the Trinitarian nature of God), not because of any doctrinal mistakes the SBC has made.
It is a complex issue precisely because the Catholic Church holds that anyone who has been validly baptized in the name of the Trinity is a Catholic, who may by circumstance be either separated from or united in communion in the Catholic Church. And those who are separated from communion may be separated by their own fault or by the fault of others.
And my point was not what Dr. Mohler may opine as to the fate of my immortal soul.
It is one thing for him to erroneously believe that the Catholic Church is mistaken in its teaching.
It is another to call Catholics "false" Christians or purveyors of a "false Gospel".
It implies that Catholics have a deceptive intent in teaching their faith, when in reality our faith is every bit as sincerely felt and preached as Dr. Mohler's.
As far as I'm concerned, Dr. Mohler is a real Christian who teaches a mistaken interpretation of the Gospel. I wouldn't accuse him of being a "false" Christian or accuse the SBC of spreading a "false" Gospel just because they are mistaken.
There is a difference between thinking that someone is in error and that someone is intentionally lying or being deceitful.
This is not directed only at only Focus on the Family. The attack is much broader than that. The counter-attack should be from the entire right wing base.
Don't you love the "so-called Christian" reference?
"The voters of Colorado can really pick em'."
Easy now. Not all of us voted for him. Dispite this obvious mistake, we still went for Bush.
This Coloradoan is at least as disgusted by bizar-Salazar as any normal people would be.
Though I wasn't 100% sure of Pete Coors, I voted for him because relative to Salazar it was no contest. This latest version of the REAL Salazar just makes things all the more clear. I am already looking forward to the re-election effort in which these quotes will no doubt be featured front and center. Sadly, it will be a long, long wait.
FYI....

I've already called. E-mail will be next.
Take care that you aren't the first to take offense when someone on FR targets the RC church, particularly if you're going to disparage their church in such a way. IOW, don't complain about anti-Catholic sentiments if you're going to insist on anti-Protestant commentary. It really does go both ways.
Yes indeed, And I know just the guy to do that.... :)
And wouldn't he be Harry Reid's dog?
Yes indeed, And I know just the guy to do that.... :)
And our beer is just fine, thank you.:p
Is it safe to assume that you hold the same opinion of the current Pope? "He offended members of other faiths in 2000 when he signed a document which argued: "Only in the Catholic Church is there eternal salvation." http://www.nzherald.co.nz/index.cfm?c_id=500818&ObjectID=10121456
Yeah, I can understand your issue with the word "false." Still, I would have to real his entire statement before I could comment on the true meaning of this tiny portion of it.
I disparaged no one's church. In fact, I have expressed my respect for this individual's denomination many times on this forum.
And there is a difference between saying "The Catholic Church is incorrect on this point, because . . ." and saying "The Catholic Church is spreading a false Gospel!"
IOW, don't complain about anti-Catholic sentiments if you're going to insist on anti-Protestant commentary.
My commentary was not anti-Protestant, it was anti-Dr.-Mohler's-dumbass-comments.
If I treated the SBC as disrespectfully as Dr. Mohler treated the Catholic Church, I would expect people to get angry.
Hope he is enjoying his ONE term as Senator.
Why don't you read the whole document, instead of just the NZ Herald write up? It's call Dominus Iesus and can be found on a google search or even an FR search.
Keep up your name calling tirade, and I'm likely to start quoting from the Westminster Confession of Faith.
NO..!!
Say it ain't so..!!
A pol lied..!!
What's the world coming to..?
I'd like to hear your response to the question of which passages you use to opine about the anti-Christ.
That's not beer it's Rocky Mtn P--water.And for the Record Salazar is the Senator from Colorado he does NOT represent
most of the Christians in this State.At them that I know do not claim he represents them.
