>>I specifically deny condemning him and defy you to point out in any post here or anywhere else where I have done so. You will find none, because I do not condemn him.
I've read through a number of your posts in this thread. While I haven't seen you directly condemn him, your very words, calling him a blasphemer, are in themselves a condemnation.
I will admit that this is just 1 interpretation, but your denouncing his words - his condemnation of the sins of this nation - are a condemnation, along with your refusal to listen to anything else he says:
"He is to me the perfect example of a person who has spoken so objectionably that I cannot hear anything else he has to say, no matter how right, generous, forgiving, whatever."

  As I wrote elsewhere, one drop of poison makes the whole jug of wine undrinkable.

    That, right there, seems to be a condemnation of Rev. Wright. If comparing someone to a drop of poison isn't condemnation, then there's not much that is.

      For the simple-minded I will clarify the analogy: the poison is the curse, the jug of wine, the sermon. There is no reference from me to a person. That is inferal, or deliberate obfuscation, on your part.
