Well since the two witnesses to the event were McCain and some unknown guard at a prison camp, exactly how is anyone going to challenge him on this?
Without having us go to those sewage dumps, can you just tell us what the similarity is? Thanks.
Sore losers.
I’ll give you benefit of the doubt that you’re not a troll.
McCain has been telling it since at least 1999. It’s so cliche(IIRC early christians drew the fish symbol on the ground to ID themselves) that even if it’s false it’s not like he would have needed to steal it from Solzhenitsyn.
The stories aren’t the same. The similarity is that someone made a cross in the dirt and a prisoner felt better because of it. Actually, McCain felt better because the ropes were loosened not because of just seeing the cross. So the stories aren’t even that similar.
Sorry, no win here.
I hope Christians realize the sign of the fish was an
underground symbol used by the young persecuted
church.
One person would draw half the fish in the dirt.
If the other person was a Christian, they would
know they were supposed to draw the other half of
the fish.
The practice of conveying one’s faith in Jesus Christ
with the sign of the cross or the fish is a common
practice today. In oppressed countries, being a
Christian can mean prison or certain death.
Daily Kos hasn’t a clue.

Please... please forgive the multiples pings, but
we mustn’t let the left use this to malign McCain.
Those people at du are so deluded and hate filled you need a hazmat suit to venture in there. They are seriously deranged. I took a look over there during the primaries and they were so vulgar and just plain nasty with their own people (clinton supporters) I could hardly believe it. It seemed like some sort of evil brainwashed cult, no logic, no discussion.
I say the accusers are liars. Prove me wrong.
And why should we give a crap?
All the “catterwalling” from the Dems proves one thing to me...they know their man was beat up and they’re trying to make excuses or distract from the sorry performance of Obama. McCain knew the questions, McCain made up a story, the audience was stacked in McCain’s favor, McCain mischaracterized what Obama believes...I said it this morning, but I’ll say it again, I’m going to start calling him Owaaaama!
Still waiting for your reply. Moderators standing by.
my bet is on dementia.
What will DU do when Larry Sinclair outs Obambi in Denver, the Dems implode, Hillery and her white women vs obambi and his/hers afrohippies?
Maybe Al G. will come riding to the rescue.
I have heard the story many times. Thinking back I believe that I first heard it in the 1980’s. I’m going to make some calls and see if I can pin it down.
No one has ever drawn a cross in the sand. Ever! It’s physically impossible.

Don't listen to DU opinions on God. The vast majority of them over there are much better attune with the guy they will be spending eternity with...Satan.
