Starr was right then....and she’s right now.
But as long as we are blaming Warren why don't we blame Ann Coulter and that host of Freepers who continued to bash McCain even when the choice became McCain or HillObama?
Sadly I had to defend Starr's position to none other than my pastor's wife last night (Women's Bible Study) and promptly went home and tossed & turned all night, with little sleep.
I have been in this particular church for 7 years....I am not a newbie Christian (although I'm still on that road to santification)
..and I knew this church was more seeker friendly/family oriented-(even in a Reformed Calvinistic denomination)... but it was a friendly church and was due to a move from one town to the next.
Last night was a genuine surprise and one I am praying about....suffice to say I'm deeply disappointed.
Thanks again.
I have no objection to the forum called by Rick Warren for both candidates. As a matter of fact, I think it gave voters the best view of the candidates positions. I agree, however, that Rev. Warren is NO Billy Graham....and no Christian is being fooled by Obama’s clear attempt here to get the support of Christians by requesting that Rev. Warren give the inaugural prayer invocation. I WILL pray for Obama as president that he will receive God’s wisdom for the awesome task ahead of him....and for his true conversion to Jesus Christ.
The False Prophet (or should it be spelled Profit?) giving the invocation for the Anti-Christ...how nice.
The NY Times calls this an "olive branch to conservative Christian evangelicals"
True Christians won't compromise on our principles, especially on abortion. This is a test, folks.
and many now call Warren this era's Billy Graham.
Anyone who compares Warren to Graham deserves to burn in the fires of hell.
Call Rick Warren pastor of the Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, California and tell him to talk to his buddy Obama about this.
No Graham never held a forum for political candidates, what he did do was hold a 'come to Jesus' assembly and anointed Hillary Clinton upon his stage as the makings of a good president.
Here's a link to the signatories if you want to see if your pastor has hopped on the bandwagon:

And I checked; Rick Warren's name is on the list.
I can remember my father being angry at Billy Graham for appearing next to LBJ. Dad said it gave Johnson “christian cover” for his socialist agenda. Rick Warren is, I’m afraid, in the same mold. I’m sure he’s hopeful that his presence will make a positive difference on an otherwise negative situation...just like Billy must have believed. Times don’t change, do they?
Platte River Rick is a tool of the left and doesn’t even know it.
PING!!
Good article. America in a moral crisis, the church in a theological crisis... hmm... wonder if there’s a connection...
