And actually that's kind of, not paternalistic, but it's talking down. <BR/><BR/>"It's basically saying 'If you just get the right words, then they'll think you've got the lingo.' And just because a person can say 'God' and 'Jesus' and 'salvation' and whatever doesn't mean they have a worldview. And people want to know what do they believe, not just their personal faith."</I><BR/><BR/>Here's some random atheist blogger, schooling the anointed on his own supposed principles:<BR/><BR/><I>When asked about their relationship with Jay Cee, Obama sliced open a lamb, squeezed its blood into a bucket, and bathed in it right there onstage. McCain said, 'I'm saved and forgiven." Next question...'<BR/><BR/>"Here is a church that ostensibly affirms the essentially sinful nature of man after the Fall, that believes in the inheritance of Adamic guilt, that believes that each person must be "born again" in order to be eligible for salvation, that believes that Edenic disobedience allowed sin and evil to enter irrevocably into the world, until such time as the sci-fi reentry of the Lord Jesus Christ into this world. <BR/><BR/>"So here's McCain disputing one of the basic tenets of Evangelical Protestantism, and it's one of his biggest applause lines, and no one, not even the damned preacher, seems to notice?"</I><BR/><BR/>Amen.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
