"Democrats ... Standing for what they do, it is impossible for me to see them as 'born again', or even believers in Christ."


I agree .. I have the very same problem.

I have been through 2 church breakups in 3 years.
We have a core group of 80 now and are rebuilding.
Soon to be breaking ground for our new building.

Joel Osteen.

His dad started that church. Both Joel's parents have passed on. Joel's "interview" on Larry King (as I recall) was also with the guy who wrote "Purpose Filled Life".

Joel is on TV - and I love to hear him preach.

And .. you need to listen more .. because I've known of the family a long time and I would consider them very conservative.

**> How the Episcopal Church’s sustained attack on traditionalism has sapped the church’s energy – and created multitudes of new Catholics, Orthodox, and evangelicals**

True!

**> How the Catholic Church is moving in a conservative direction today after suffering for a generation the negative effects of a wave of liberalism**

Again, true!

It's happening all over the world. Most of those hardline liberals are leaving faith altogether...

"That depends. If they have a 501(c)3 as required by the IRS, then gifts are tax deductible. If they do not have a 501(c)3 then giving to that organization is NOT tax deductible."


Not true. The language of 501(c) itself provides for exemptions from the requirement of becoming a 501(c) corporation to have tax deductible status.

I belonged to the Conservative book club and am going to rejoin. That Compass club is just another part of the leftist Book of the Month Club.

She did have cancer. Joel talks about how her faith took precedence over her illness. She would go around the house, sick and all, and keep proclaiming The Word, "no weapon formed against me will prosper", "I'm the head, not the tail", etc. and put her focus on helping others.
