I've defended Warren in issues of faith in the past. However, I think he's wrong for siding with the global warming folks because the science is not yet there. (Although bible prophecy is with him on an eventual "warming." Yes, I'm prepared for another premill diatribe....:>)
I don't think a pastor should intentionally inject politics into the pulpit, BECAUSE I believe the pastor should be methodically dealing with the Bible. If he can come up with "Barak Obama says" from a passage about getting a coin out of a fish's mouth, then he's got "insight" that I'm just not sourced to receive.
I believe he's toadying, but I can't yet prove it.
Unfortunately, faith and politics have been inextricably linked for as long as I have been alive. To untangle it would require active work to extricate the Church from the Republican agenda.
As I have, too. And each time I do I ask for specifics from his detractors but those specifics are never provided.

I with you there, on both points. ;-)
Purpose Driven or Holy Spirit Led - that is the choice! I had to chuckle reading a lot of the comments posted; especially given that the NT was written to Jews (e.g., Mattityahu,Yochanan-Moshe, Yochanan, Maaseh Shlichim, Yaakov, Ivrim, Romiyah, Qorintyah Alef, Galutyah, Phylypsiyah, Qolesayah, Gilyahna, etc.). HalleluYAH!
