I posted the following a short time ago on another thread.

Lets see. Rick Warren has sold 35 million copies of his book “The Purpose Driven Life”. Good for him. He has an Email newsletter that is sent to 180,000 religious leaders, decimating his thoughts on a multitude of topics and subjects matter. Okay. Warren is also well known for advancing certain issues beyond traditional religious ministries. Hmmm.

Sounds like progressive preaching with a purpose driven agenda, front and center.

What I find troubling, is how can Rick Warren invite someone to his ministry, who professes to be a man of faith, yet condones and promotes abortion on demand. Its a total disconnect for me. Btw, this will be Obama’s second visit to see Warren.

I have also been wondering similar thoughts in recent months. Are there two Rick Warrens ? “The Purpose Driven Life” seems real {genuine} enough. I thought it was a helpful study.

Another explanation could be that the guy has changed, or that media reports on his activities are less than accurate. The latter is probably least likely.

........decimating his thoughts on a multitude of topics and subjects matter.

Totally wiped them out?

I doubt that Warrens thoughts have ever been decimated, though they no doubt have been widely disseminated (darn spellchecker, eh?).

Anyway I don't see a problem with him inviting both candidates to his church to discuss issues, religious or otherwise. What better way than to expose Obama’s real views than an hour of unscripted Q&A before people who really do take these issues seriously, instead of the usual perfunctory interviews and scripted answers from the drive by media and staged debates?

Guys like Rick Warren and Olsten are making the most radical pro-abort Democrats acceptable to evangelicals. I have no use for his purpose-driven life agenda, which is really theological liberalism dressed-up for the post-modern world. I prefer the novel approach of studying scripture, doctrine, and apologetics for myself

Supposedly tonight will limited to "values" issues, so with Obama's astonishing "born-alive abortion" support, if Warren is the least bit consistent, he had better push Obama very hard on this.

Obama is far and away the most radical pro-abortion extremist that has ever run for the Presidency. He has no compassion for kids (at least not small ones).

I've never heard his message
But just as glance or two at his photos show me someone who isn't serious
Who is far too pleased with himself

Maybe he's delivering a feel good message to his mega-congregation
At least he isn't a Satanist or such so bully for you Rick!
