“Mr. Campolo, you are a doofus (I say this with the utmost Christian charity). You’re spewing the same ol’ claptrap as Obama, Clinton, and Edwards...” ~ opus86

Tony “baloney” Campolo tells people they should thank God for Karl Marx.

“...Isn’t God’s message to sinful humanity that He sees in each of us a divine nature of such worth that He sacrificed His own Son so that our divine potentialities might be realized? ... The hymn writer who taught us to sing “Amazing Grace” was all too ready to call himself a “wretch” ... Forgetting our divinity and over-identifying with our [Freudian] anal humanity... Erich Fromm, one of the most popular psychoanalysts of our time, recognized the diabolical social consequences that can come about when a person loses sight of his/her own divinity ...” -Tony Campolo “Partly Right” 1995

“What I am trying to say is that Jesus who incarnated God 2,000 years ago is mystically present and waiting to be discovered in EVERY person you and I encounter” -Tony Campolo “A Reasonable Faith” 1983 page 171

“There is a feminine side of God. I always knew this ... It is this feminine side of God I find in Jesus that makes me want to sing duets with Him ... Not only do I love the feminine is Jesus, but the more I know Jesus, the more I realize that Jesus loves the feminine in me. Until I accept the feminine in my humanness, there will be a part of me that cannot receive the Lord’s love. ... There is that feminine side of me that must be recovered and strengthened if I am to be like Christ ... And until I feel the feminine in Jesus, there is a part of Him which I cannot identify.” -Tony Campolo “Carpe Diem: Seize the Day”, 1994, pages 85-88

“I’m not convinced that Jesus only lives in Christians.” -Tony Campolo Charlie Rose show on January 24, 1997

Good grief.

Match-PI:”Until I accept the feminine in my humanness, there will be a part of me that cannot receive the Lord’s love.”

Yes, I think Tony has certainly come to grips with his feminine side - the feminine blonde side, that is...

What a raving lunatic!
