I can only say that I am not an expert on religion. I do know what I was taught and what I believe. A "Christian", believes in Jesus Christ as their savior. They also believe in the scriptures, which states you always pray to God in the name of Jesus. There is at least, one TV Minister that never mentions the name of Jesus. I don't consider him a Christian.

Their are some TV Ministers that do pray to Jesus Christ that I don't consider Christians either.

Good afternoon to you too. It looks like your post was supposed to go to Bella (she asked the question in #460).

[TopQuark]

Ok, you give at least an honest answer: the Chaplain on Capitol Hill is not a true Christian. I respect your opinion, but I have serious doubt that it is correct. We can agree to diagree here.

THanks for your post.

Demographically, they won't be much longer.

Sir Wrigley is worthy of the loyal order....Alex, please confer upon him the status of "weatherman", and congratulations wrigley, blessings unto you. Please reference my homepage for thy semi secret greeting

Thank you.

BTW, I wonder if Michael Newdow is a Jew. I know he is an atheist. Serious question.

Ruh roh! You said the "M-word."

"Christian nation" <> "Congress shall make no law....

Actually, given the current reach of Leviathan, I would be much happier if Congress didn't make any laws ;-).

[sauropod]

OK I had a senior moment LOL!

You mean the SBC "ministers" that fanned out in Salt Lake City a few years ago to "save the Mormons"?

Well, as it happens, they got a cordial reception.

Yeah, I'm sure it chapped their b*tts, too.

[Illbay]

This wasn't about "truth," it was about propriety.

Under other circumstances it would be most appropriate to testify of what the minister might consider "the truth."

This wasn't one of those circumstances.

[Illbay]

He wasn't invited to prosletyze.

[Illbay]

So Jews pray to "nobody"?

(Oops, forgot to address my post to your entire gang. Oh, well, I hope they won't be offended).

[Illbay]

It isn't appropriate. This was not a church service, and the audience included people of many faiths. He was the invited guest, not they.

[Illbay]

I have often suspected that you people consider "Southern Heritage" to be a cult, a religion.

Your comment reinforces my suspicion.

[Illbay]

Okay, so they stop inviting certain Christian ministers, and then everyone is poorer.

What a great idea.

I abhor this attitude on the part of many "christians" that "in your face" is What Jesus Would Do.

[rattrap]

maybe they should just make 1 more...

enforce the %&$*#ing laws on the books now, and they can all take a much needed (cough...) vacation, until it's budget or war time again.

[Alex Murphy]

Yeah, I'm sure it chapped their b*tts, too.

What is it with your fascination with the male posterior?

Rev. Hughes did nothing wrong, and no apology is necessary.

Jesus is the foundation of the Christian faith. To invoke his name at the end of a prayer is not only traditional among Evangelicals but also demonstrative of the Christian's belief in Jesus' holiness and sovereignty.
