You asked — “Do you believe Thompson’s profession of faith.”

I listened to a campaign speech that Thompson gave from another poster who told me that this would clear up any concerns I had about Thompson and whether he was a Christian or not.

From what I saw and heard, I have to say that Thompson does not understand what the Gospel is, what the “good news” is, got it wrong when he talked about what that meant in his home town, and therefore, I have to conclude that Thompson is not a Christian, because he does not exhibit the basic understanding of what the criteria is for becoming a Christian. *If* he ever did say he was a Christian (which I haven’t heard), that’s just as good as Romney saying he is a Christian (which is false, as he belongs to a cult group who does not believe in the Jesus of the Bible and basic, historic and foundational Christianity).

And likewise, it doesn’t appear that Thompson knows the Jesus who brings salvation.

So, in short — no...

That's funny. When I think of the scheming, prevaricating, left-wing, Arkansas campaign-money cheat Huckabee I think of this a passage. (paraphrase) Many will call on my name saying Lord, Lord, and I will say I never knew you.

One who listens to his smooth tongue has ears that need tickling.

So what if he’s not? We’re electing the leader of a nation, not the leader of a church.

You Bible-Thumping Jesus-freaks are wearing thin on me.
