There is more interest in what is not said on the churches website..everyone should visit this site, then decide if this is the view we want in the white house.

  How many people agree with the priest, pastor, whatever of their house of worship on political matters? Would you want them to speak for you?

    Why would anyone attend a church whose leader said things contrary to their own beliefs? That kind of defeats the purpose.

      How is someone supposed to have control over what the pastor of their church thinks outside of the subject of their religion?
      And, ZG, I bet that if you have gone to church, you have indeed gone to one whose leader said things contrary to your own beliefs. How could you ever possibly find one with a pastor that didn't, as you could never know what their beliefs truly are until you heard them spoken? And no two people share very many particular beliefs, anyway, even within the membership of a cult. Bit of a conundrum there. Or at least an unreasonable expectation of telepathic ability.

        I spend quite a bit of my time involved with my church. Besides services, I attend a Bible Study group and serve on the Council. I have belonged to many different sects of Christianity and other religions or beliefs, and when they said things I did not agree with, I left. I have had pastors in the religion I'm committed to now that I did not agree with, and you know what I did? I left. I found another church, another Pastor. You cannot be fed on the Word of God by someone you do not agree with. Of course you will not find someone who agrees with every single thought you ever have. But we are not talking about whether or not it's okay to have silk flowers on the altar during Lent. The things this guy says are weighty, and someone who disagrees with those statements should find a new church home.

    rf, Would you want them to speak for you?
    If I were running for public office I would be upfront about what I did not like about the house of worship I attended, and state why I like what is good about.

    You claim that about the 'white' southern fundies in threads all the time RFE,,,, interesting that it all changes now that it's a black church,,,,, either rail against them all or none of them if you have any credibility.
