fred is an admitted non practicing armchair Christian - recently changed his denomination from episcopal (liberal) to baptist....so to say he has a firm grasp of Gods plan for Israel and how that relates to a Jewish state and regional middle east politics is laughable
You are a liar and God hates liars.
Fred Thompson belongs to the Church of Christ, and always has.
We’re talking about the real world here, where our ally Israel is threatened by islamofascists from all sides and from within, not your own personal Biblical interpretations.
I believe you are mixing up Fred with McCain regarding the Baptist issue. Episcopals are not liberal by default. Just because many in our church are wacky doesn't make the members wacky. Fred has admitted on several occasions w/ out hesitation that he is a Christian, and I don't recall ever reading about Fred espousing God's Plan for Israel.
Enjoy your time in the confessional booth or next to your bed praying for forgiveness for bearing false witness.

I can find nothing to support the above assertion. If you cannot supply documentation of this charge, I repectfully request that this post be removed.
Not “non-practicing,” “non-church-going.” As a Catholic fan of Benedict XVI, I could say that we only ever had one church-going president (tweak!), and he desecrated the Eucharist by receiving it outside of a state of grace, but we’ve had several who live up to the requirements of their sect. Neither Reagan or Thompson attended church regularly. But both were from sects (Presbyterian and Church of Christ) which rejected the necessity of church attendance. So just because someone’s sect of Christianity doesn’t require the same adherences, doesn’t mean someone isn’t adherent to Christianity.
Let me know when Thompson espouses defends abortion, or divorces three wives.
Incidentally, Thompson hasn’t ever been Episcopal, and he’s only Baptist in the sense that sometimes he DOES attend services at a Baptist church.
