   “How can you call yourself a Christian…a follower of Christ…and still think that partial birth abortion should be legal??”

   I wish someone would have asked me this when I was pro-choice back in the day. It would have convicted me, that’s for sure!

   Pat liked Rudy.

   It is worth a try since there is not a lot of difference between Rudy and Hillary on the issues.

   Plus Robertson hates McCain after the personal attacks of 2000.

   Well, I guess the saying is true…birds of a feather do flock together…how appropriate to have a meeting of religious charlatans, fakes, frauds and phonies with their counterpart on the political side…

   Hillary’s selfpity and selfcongratulations are reason enough to see her lose even if the result is Obama being a stronger candidate. Her remark that people who get to know me “apologize” is so self serving. Apparently she never has done anything and all her enemies eventually realize that they have wronged Hillary and come groveling to her. I wonder why the interviewer didn’t ask her: Did Billy Dale apologize to you for all the bad things he did to the White House Travel Office and for making you correct all the bad things by putting your Arkansas contributers into the White House Travel Office? I wonder why the interviewer didn’t say: “Did Gennifer Flowers apologize to you because you accused her of lying about her relationship with Bill and then it turned out that of course you were right once again, Hillary? Her statement that her enemies eventually apologize to her is a sign of clinical narcissism. It is really dangerous for a president of the US to be so totally selfabsorbed that she really thinks that it’s about everybody else getting on their knees and apologizing to the deity (HIllary).

   Great question except…

   Pat Robertson endorsed Rudy so I think abortion in not an issue for Robertson. That is why (well, one of many reasons but the latest reason) we no longer watch The 700 Club.

   You are absolutely right….. BUT, she is a member of the United Methodist Chuch. I challenge you to go to their web site and read their doctrines – They all read like Hillary Clinton talking points. Pro-choice, pro-gay marriage, pro-illegal immigrant (They literally believe all illegals should have the exact same constitutional rights as US Citizens), pro-welfare and social entitlements, pro-felons having the right to vote, etc, etc….

   They have a very good search engine on their web site where you can litterally search for any hot button issue and find their official written statements of where their church stands on that issue….. WARNING: It might make you puke!

   So in summary – I not only think she is misguided politically, but when judgment day comes, she may have a good bit of explaining to do.

    To be fair, RagingR, not all UMC congregations are like that. As with most of the former mainline denominations (e.g. PCUSA, ECUSA, ELCA) the leadership is out of touch with many, if not most, of it’s membership. Those who have not left the denominations have formed groups within them to counteract the liberal influence. Often they apply the term “Confessing” to themselves and their work. For example, here’s the
    Confessing Movement Within The UMC

    (But it’s a pretty safe bet Hillary doesn’t count herself in their numbers!)

    Hopefully when this election is all over she can lift up a big rock and crawl underneath it.

    Hiya Soap -
    If it was the denomination (UMC) her family was affiliated with she didn’t have to do much “searching” since, like many former mainline denominations, it has changed dramatically in the last 50 years! (and not for the better)

    I think that Hilly needs to stick with one strategy and stay there. Every time she switches from screachy, to shrill, to angry, then to soft, I get whiplash. Enough already.

    I think it’s insane that her “desperation” has reached to this outreach proportion. Politics really does have very, very strange bedfellows. Maybe Evangelicals will be more receptive to her… again, maybe not.

    Whenever I hear a socialist democrat like Hillary or Barak talk about their faith I have to take my “willing suspension of disbelief” pill. These two drive the blame America first bus. They have no faith in anything but big government and big taxes. They certainly have no faith in democracy and the rights of the American people to see the laws enforced and maintain our sovereignty.

    Yo peep!

    I agree with you. Like many (note I did not say all as that would start a whole new debate) denom’s, after 4 to 5 generations they become liberal and the remnant moves on to start other chruches. Could be why there are thousands of denom’s around today. There is one to fit any need.

    I am not an overly religious man. Still, I have come to believe that Bill and Hillary Clinton are both, in their own right, evil in the biblical sense. I do not believe that either have ever done a single act of kindness or nurturing for any purpose other than personal gain and I believe they have left a trail of personal destruction and hurt wherever they have traveled. I may be wrong, but I have yet to see anything to contradict that opinion.

    You are absolutely right….. BUT, she is a member of the United Methodist Chuch. I challenge you to go to their web site and read their doctrines – They all read like Hillary Clinton talking points.

    From the UMC website:

    Our belief in the sanctity of unborn human life makes us reluctant to approve abortion. But we are equally bound to respect the sacredness of the life and well-being of the mother, for whom devastating damage may result from an unacceptable pregnancy. In continuity with past Christian teaching, we recognize tragic conflicts of life with life that may justify abortion, and in such cases we support the legal option of abortion under proper medical procedures. We cannot affirm abortion as an acceptable means of birth control, and we unconditionally reject it as a means of gender selection.
    We oppose the use of late-term abortion known as dilation and extraction (partial-birth abortion) and call for the end of this practice except when the physical life of the mother is in danger and no other medical procedure is available, or in the case of severe fetal anomalies incompatible with life.

    I grew up in the UMC and the majority of my family still attends. I can say that alot of the policies and beliefs expounded on the UMC website do not reflect what I was taught. And I would agree that the council that makes up the policies is out of touch with it’s members, at least in small southern towns and country churches. The big city yokels may have gone to the liberal side, but the small churches are much more on the conservative side.
    I guess we need to coin a new acronym for Hillary at least in my mind:
    MINO-Methodist In Name Only.

    Hey Tennesee Dave I as well grew up in the UMC and I never ever heard the true gospel there and there was never an alter call. It was only later in years at college did I hear the true Gospel of Christ. I am still a member of that denomination but I don’t support it and they even have a Planned Parenthood chapter that meets in the basement of the church. The pastor as does the church think all good people go to heaven and even the muslims too. They are so lost and misguided. I have wondered if you have had similar experiences. This is out in Eastern Washnington.
