He is flaming out hard.

Who cares?

I don’t attend church for the simple reason I lost all faith in the institutions Man has raised up in worship of God.

Doesn’t mean I lack faith in God. Doens’t make me a bad person.

[fantom]

Oh my ! Alert the citizenry !

[BipolarBob]

Does it affect his apparell choices?

I'm not sure I know what this means, but Fred's all right in my book.

[nmh]

Neither do I!

The problem is that in NJ God isn’t popular even with clergy!

So I suppose that when Hillary attends - homo and abortion, and constantly lying makes HER a real “Christian”? LOL!!!!

He is flaming out hard.

Yep, honesty is the kiss of death for a politician.

Perhaps, and what a sad commentary on the US that is. The rush to Huckabee is most disappointing.

Another reason I love Fred!

Neither do I. In fact, aside from weddings, funerals, baptisms, and one Christmas Eve, I haven't been to church in about 20 years. Nevertheless, God is the Guiding Force in my life and the only Truth that there is. I am His entirely.

I think it stays an issue only because the pundits keep talking about it. Voters aren’t stupid. They know they are voting for President, not Pastor.

This is the reason Dobson said he would not jump onboard Fred’s bus. But let’s face it, it’s a bad idea to base your voting decision on the candidate’s religion. Just because a candidate is a Christian does not mean that they’d be a good President.

In fact it’s difficult to tell whether a candidate really is a Christian these days, particularly on the GOP side. They all claim to be.

It’s an oblique reference to Mormon underwear.

through 25 actually.

[em2vn]

But Clinton did.

Church will not get anyone to heaven..as a matter a face some will keep people out of heaven..I pray and talk to God every day lots of times a day..Actually he is my best friend my father and everything else..I don't go to church..per say..I go to God with my problems and praise..

Concerning Weddings and Funerals.......I view them as about the same. Fred may be being too honest. Kind of refreshing in a politician but I don’t think he has a chance of becoming President.
