You have probably seen the headline that Jerry Falwell hopes Hillary Clinton will run for the presidency in 2008 because she would energize his constituents more than if Lucifer ran.  But as is often the case Rev. Falwell has his facts wrong.  The word on the street here in D.C. is that while Satan is mulling a run in ’08, he would run for the GOP.  Insiders say his negatives are pretty high but he has a lock on the pro-torture vote.

1/4. Lucifer

Last time I checked my Bible, the devil made the most tremendous gains with the help of the Pharisees, as in getting Christ killed (Pharisees, not Jews) Pharisees, as I heard a definition, were a religious right of New Testament times. They would "Place heavy burdens" on people but "not lift a finger" to help. Oh, they might contribute with a big show to "help the poor" but actual ongoing programs to bring peace and justice . . . forget it. Hey, who does that sound like? later, George

2/4. exactly

george, that's really the point, isn't it? showing vs. doing. jesus could not have been clearer. there was nothing he condemned more than religious hypocrisy. really nothing.

3/4. Can't Falwells Tax Free Status Be Revoked?

I was just wondering if the "Reverend"(I use that term very loosely) Jerry Falwells tax exempt status can be revoked due to the fact he is "preaching"(I also use this term very loosely) politics from the pulpit and at these prayer breakfasts. I was thinking there was law that could have the tax exempt status revoked for political sermons. Thanks for allowing my comments and questions.

4/4. Mr.

I've been watching "Faithful Democrats" for a few weeks now. I had hoped that it would be an honest examination of scripture and how it should shape our values. Sadly, the website seems to be just another political website hiding behind Bible verses. The treatment of scripture seems very sloppy and dishonoring to the Lord. In the end, let's be more careful to be Christian than partisan! Sincerely, Mark Hubbell
