I'm not saying you will believe it, but I think it might address some of the misconceptions.
You can also FReepMail me with questions.
PS: The PC-USA is a liberal denomination that has mostly left its reformed roots and adherence to the Bible. I'm not sure what they preach anymore. Best bet is to ask people from the PCA or OPC (sorry for the slight to the continentals out there).
I am not a follower but amazed at how many people on this thread sit on God’s thrown and judge. Well done. Pat yourself on the back.
Christians are supposed to judge right from wrong, and avoid the wrong.
“... Best bet is to ask people from the PCA or OPC (sorry for the slight to the continentals out there).” is referring to reformed theology, not the PC-USA teachings.

Hey PCA's and OPC's --- can you enlighten me on these questions? For instance, what I asked at #40.
He was a great writer, he has engaged many with his books.. but not sure if he was a saved writer
“Old Floatie”
Sorry to hear this news. It sounds like his last few years were not very good.
“I would rather attempt something GREAT and fail than do nothing and succeed.” — Robert Schuller
Schuller apparently is not of your particular branch of Christianity, but he was a solid teacher, preacher, and author.
Not at all.

C.S. Lewis was not a Fundamentalist. He was one of those "respectable," intellectual, theological types. His universal acceptance by every church and theology out there has always puzzled me.
He was also a "theistic evolutionist."
Lewis converted to, and died in, old-fashioned High Church Anglicanism. Tolkien, who inspired his conversion, always resented the fact that Lewis didn't join him in the Catholic Church.
Yes, Lewis was theologically "conservative" on most issues and wrote good books. But anybody from the Bible Belt (like yours truly) knows that between the Lewis's, Buckleys, and Muggeridge's and and the simple Fundamentalist Protestant preacher there is a gulf that is larger than worlds.
From what I have read about him, I judge he was, indeed, a righteous man.
“I do not believe God creates people to destroy them. God is Love and Light.”
I agree with you.

You can always pray for the living and the dead. Remember, their bodies die, but their souls are alive.
I’ll be honest. I don’t know WHAT the Pope is trying to say half the time, so you may be right.
He was a horrible person. (A neighbor in Hawaii)
As I am. If I may say so, it doesn't sound very Christian and it's one reason many people have a problem with Christianity.
BS. It a slimy lie, created by someone who hates both Schuller and the Catholic Church and thinks by associating them he can smear them both. You better ask for proof before spreading falsehoods.
