I love you enough to tell you the truth. Warren and his ilk don't.

I am interested in why you and other seem to hate Rick Warren so much? I would hope that you could rejoice in the help that the people of Rwanda have received. I just doesn't make any sense to me when I read the condemnation, judgment and attack. There is something that doesn't compute there.

There is so much pain and suffering in this world. I see no reason to condemn someone who is actually doing something to help.

I was not sure what all the fuss was about so I went to several sites which explain his views. I quit after reading many pages and they all had the same theme, he is a fake. I read one account of a man going to the church and he brought his Bible. He looked around and very few had theirs. When he listened to his "sermon" he said he understood why. He used many different versions of the Bible and no one could have had all of those. One complained about the attire at the church. Don't get me wrong, I think nice pantsuits are fine for ladies but he was complaining about the women in short shorts, short skirts, etc. He said they were dressed like they were going to a sporting event. Now, I believe God deserves our best and that is in our clothing, too. I was amazed at the errors in Warren's book that some people found. In other words it was not Biblical. He twisted the words so much that they did not have their original meaning. Some on this thread have complained about people complaining about the money he has donated to charities. But, a widow's mite is just as important to God as the thousands given by someone who has much, much more to donate. I will have to do more research before my final decision about him. There are many more sites out there for me to check into.
