“I agree with what Bill Bennett said at the Values Forum Summit to Pastor Jeffress.
“You did Rick Perry no good, sir, in what you had to say,” “
I don’t see where this pastor said anything all that controversial. Essentially, all he said (and I’m paraphrasing) is that “all other factors being equal, if given a choice between a Christian and non-Christian, I’ll choose the Christian.” Have we become that politically correct (even on the right) that we can’t prefer to vote for someone who shares the same faith as us.
Oh-and if you think what this pastor said is bad, then I suppose you and Mr Bennett must be totally outraged at remarks said by the candidate himself (Herman Cain) that he would never appoint a Muslim to his cabinet or a Catholic that is loyal to the Pope. Should Mr Cain be allowed to choose people he shares similar values with, or is he also a religious bigot?
Exactly. Even CNN pointed out in an article Friday:
In fact, a website maintained by the Southern Baptist Convention lists the Mormon faith under its "New Religions and Cults" section, which also includes Jehovah's Witnesses and the Church of Scientology.

IOW, this was a Baptist pastor citing obvious Baptist -- and Christian -- stances.
I mean Romney's religion -- that includes Ripliancum's and Saundra Duffy's religion -- believes all Christian sects are "apostate" full of "corrupt" professors who believe 100% creeds of "abomination."
Where's the headlines on that reality?
