"He is in a very visible leadership position and comments such as recent ones related to Mr. Sharon and so many others are misinformed and presumptuous and border on arrogance," said David Dockery, president of Union University, a private college affiliated with the Tennessee Baptist Convention.

I wonder if Mr. Dockery went to his brother, Pat Robertson, with his concerns before making this statement?

If not, then Mr. Docery is in biblical sin and needs to repent and ask forgiveness.

Biblical sin ? Last time I checked Pat Robertson wasn't God whatever you think. Pat Robertson is a self important fool with two screws loose who embarasses American Christianity by making arrogant, stupid statements.

When leaders are treated with your level of fawning deference they become self important and arrogant and imagining themselves indispensible to God. Moses did. It was the point where Jim Jones and David Koresh went off the rails into evil.

People talk about Kerry faking his war record. What about "Korean War combat vet Pat Robertson" who actually had his father Senator Robertson, Chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, get him transferred from the front lines to 'regimental liquour officer' ?

Did you bother reading my post before jumping down my throat?

I never took sides one way or the other with Pat Robertson. I simply stated that the Bible lays out the method of approaching your brother who is in sin.

You are to approach your brother individually first. If he is not willing to listen then you need to approach those in authority over him to bring him to repentence. If that fails to work then you can make it known before the church body as a whole.

My question was simply asking whether Mr. Dockery followed biblical principles in approaching his brother, Pat Robertson?
