“We are writing to deplore this despicable tactic,” said the Rev. Bob Edgar, general secretary of the National Council of Churches of Christ in the USA, and eight other leaders. “We have had enough of the slash and burn politics calculated to divide us as children of God,” said the leaders today in an open letter to the religious community.

“I’ve been saying for awhile now that we must not let fear, fundamentalism and Fox News set our nation’s agenda,” said NCC’s Edgar separately. “Now it appears Fox News is using a political candidate to further foment a fear of fundamentalism in hopes of dividing Americans and pitting people of faith against one another. Faithful Americans must stand up and say no to such sinful behavior,” Edgar said.

in hopes of dividing Americans and pitting people of faith against one another.

That's their - the libs agenda - if ANYONE speaks out against 'wrong teaching' they are 'dividing'. Nothing in God's Word is in the grey area. All Christians should have the mind of Christ and they don't. When some say - I'm entitled to my interpretation - they have set themselves up to be their own god - it's what 'they' think and want to believe. How different is Obama's, Sharpton, Jackson's beliefs different than most bible believing American's? They take 'correction' as condemnation and the bible warns against that.

Faithful Americans must stand up and say no to such sinful behavior,”

And Dr. Dobson is!!
