For some reason. This self-annointed Chief Executive of "The Office of President-Elect" had three meetings with the homosexual Episcopal Bishop, Vicki Gene Robinson.

Something keeps telling me to watch how churches and charities who do not cater to homosexuals will lose their tax-exempt status and their members will also lose their charitable deductions to those churches.

And the Christian religion as we know it will cease to exist except in the hearts and minds and living rooms of believers.

They won’t do it.

They would start something that would have massive ramifications for them in 2010 elections for Congress. It’s one thing to ram homo’s down everyone’s throat in terms of TV programming, the court’s, and in employment law.

You start ramming the homo agenda down the throat of Sunday morning services - a lot of those previously purple states in the interior of the country will start going RED in a big hurry.

You are deliberately messing with people’s spiritual lives when you do that, and to what gain on the left?

I dunno. Lots of very upset folks in a number of congregations I'm familiar with, across the age spectrum. I suspect Catholics are setting up for a long-needed purge. A serious effort to redirect money into social advocacy is coming. And a whole lot of prayer is going up about our political situation.

Well, I don't know about your concept of the "Christian religion" but I can assure you that the Catholic Church has survived 2000 years of persecution that continues to this day. In fact, today in Nagasaki Japan, they beatified 188 martyrs to the faith.

Sanguis Martyrum.... (Vatican beatifies Japanese Martyrs in Nagasaki)

No one knows for sure just how many christians were martyred in the first century ... or the 2nd or the 3rd. But these christians stood strong and brave against the attacks, actually singing hymns as the lions entered the Colosseum and even when these brave souls were turned into human torched to illuminate the stadium at dusk. Nothing has changed since then. Catholic martyrs continue to shed their blood for Christ and will do so until He returns.

Whaht I read is that Gene Robinson will be his adviser, since Billy Graham won’t do it.

A loss for our nation, that’s for sure.
