Wasteful Lawsuits: Felled by the Holy Spirit

Hmm…this guy needs a reality check! Churches are really the wrong targets. They don’t have deep pockets. Juries won’t feel more sympathy for an injured guy than for a church. And insurance companies really don’t pay off bad lawsuits.

Who owns Christianity?

Headlines today attack Senator Barack Obama’s interpretation of the Christian Bible. Really? Seriously? Is this an issue?
Apparently, James Dobson, a conservative Christian with millions of books published, challenged Obama’s interpretation as “dragging Biblical understanding through the gutter.” Mr. Dobson fails to appreciate the differences among the differing versions of Christianity.

Reverend Jeremiah Wright launched a personal p.r. campaign Friday with an interview by Bill Moyers. Talking Heads and Common-taters (yes, I meant to spell it that way) continue to pursue a line of inquiry which strenuously and vigorously assails Rev. Wright. At this point, I must agree with Rev. Wright, the issue is not about [...]

Religion vs. Crime

When Texas officials entered the property of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, America cheered. The search warrant for the properly signed and sealed, no doubt, with memories of the Waco standoff some years ago in mind.

Good Fences Make Bad Leadership

The cadre of people running the Democrat Party and the left leaning media wield Religion and Guns as weapons against the Republican Party, not each other. To the great surprise of the tunnel-visioned elitist left leadership and its mouthpieces, voters hold wide and differing opinions on Religion and Guns, and just about every other issue [...]
