If it looks like a double standard, talks like a double stand, walks like a double standard, and quacks like a double standard, then....

(With apologies to GHW Bush)

[EagleUSA]

The separation of church and state...hmmmm.

[RegulatorCountry]

"I really would be hard pressed to think of any examples where the Republican Party has convened a similar event at a conservative seminary."

Separaton of church and state for thee, but not for me. Amazing.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Should the IRS be notified ?

[Still Thinking]

That only for conservative churches and or governments.

[xzins]

I'd prefer we call the hypocrite police, but if the media were any closer to the Democratic Party they'd come out the other side.

[xzins]

Of some comfort is the fact that these same liberals have led our denomination in the loss of some 7 million members since 1968....not counting the gain that should have been realized by simple birth rate addition.

In short, they're losers, and if the Dems are going to them for advice, then they've gone to exactly the folks we'd "suggest" they should go to. :>)

"Jesus rode a donkey."

This as a political slogan really gets me all excited about the democrat party.

[NurdlyPeon]

Pathetic or amusing? To laugh or to barf? So many questions.

[MEG33]

Hypocrites!

A conservative United Methodist activist finds it ironic that a United Methodist seminary in Colorado recently hosted a Democratic party conference on how to attract religious voters.

He found it ironic? Where has he been?

[spinestein]

[He finds it ironic that the same liberals have been lamenting the supposed "marriage" between Evangelicals and the Republican Party.]



He finds it "ironic" that many liberal churches actively support and fund raise for Democratic causes and campaigns as tax exempt religious organizations, but I find it to be hypocritical, unethical, immoral and ILLEGAL.

[xzins]

Mark Tooley is quite knowledgeable.

The irony is found in the hypocrisy.

[ZULU]

Unfortunately, these creeps aren't the ONLY losers.

There's a saying in politics that you can't beat somebody with nobody.

Well, that goes for religion too.

Because the mainstream Christian faiths, particularly the Protestant ones, have been loosing members like a duck sheds water n the rain, more Christians are set adrift in the world without strong religious teachings.

That lack of connectivity to Christianity among some of these people, and ESPECIALLY their offspring, produces a well of potential Islamic converts.

And I believe the same thing has happened in Europe.

Christianity died out in many "Christian" countries like the Scandinavian ones, long before the Islamic invasion.

A secular religion is no substitute for a religious experience - which unfortunately, Islam is all to eager to provide - in a warped and distorted version.

I'm one of those 7 million.

It's probably just as well, I don't think the .357 magnum I carry in church would be welcome in most Methodist Churches.

[HisKingdomWillAbolishSinDeath]

Another theological cemetery exposed.

[Recovering_Democrat]

LOL. This is a case of losers consulting losers. The Democrat party has people leaving it in droves, as does the United Methodist Church...this conservative has walked out on both. And I'm not alone.

[metesky]

What would today's Methodists know about religion?
