Wright's sermons fueled by complex mix of culture, religion

Is that real? Good grief, I don’t believe it.

Has someone posted it here yet?

“Marty said he thinks Wright crosses a line when he equates American power with white power”

He is NOT crossing a line — as far as ‘black liberation theology’ is concerned.

Whatever good intentions reverend Wright may have — if we give him the benefit of the doubt — they are nullified by the racist poison of black liberation theology... a poison that infects whatever message he delivers to his listeners.

It’s very hard for a reasonable man to believe that Obama attended reverend Wright’s sermons for seventeen years — tainted with the aforementioned racist ‘theology’ — without it biasing his philosophical, spiritual, and (certainly) political outlook.

Whatever happened to nuanced?

I haven't seen too many references to "shades of gray," either. Maybe it doesn't fit these race-baiting discussions very well.

"Wright told his flock: "Bill did us, just like he did Monica Lewinsky. He was riding dirty.""

The Rev. got that one right.

Not yet.

His 20 year mentor.

America’s first black president...

[MtnClimber]

Fascism by any other name would smell so skunk.

[popdonnelly]

Wright knows what packs in the pews in his black church.

[purpleraine]

Complex in this case means rambling, incoherent, historically inaccurate, race baiting, victimology; combined with rythmic body movement and voice intonnation, and sing-sogn pattern aimed at getting the congregation aroused before they have time to realize, interpret and respond to the content of the message.

[bannie]

"complex"?

Nah, simple cheap self-serving bigotry.

complex mix of culture, religion

Sprinkled with a heavy dose of racism..

re: “complex”

Ah, I’ll bet you don’t understand “nuance” either! :^)

There’s a ‘sleeper’ running for president.

complex mix of culture, religion...

Translation. Devoid of any honesty.

Social Gospel is way beyond Christianity. How anybody can listen to this social Gospel and imagine they are in church is another mystery.

Whitewash of Pure Evil Alert.

In January, shortly after former President Bill Clinton referred to Obama's campaign as a fairy tale, Wright told his flock: "Bill did us, just like he did Monica Lewinsky. He was riding dirty."

Pastor Wright was among those preachers who rose to Bill Clinton's defense during Fornigate. He's a DUmmy.

Obama may be black but he’s not African-American in the traditional sense.
