You couldn’t believe the amount of young people out there who loves senator Obama and who will see that cross and come to walk after the Lord. Please , Please don’t criticize the cross or senator Obama, because judgement belongs not to you but to the Lord who made the heavens and the earth

Andrew, my husband and I moved to Dallas/Fort Worth so he could attend Southwest Baptist Theological Seminary. We are lifelong “committed Christians.” You seem deeply sincere in your convictions. So think about what I’m going to say, please, and don’t take offense.

We are not criticizing the cross of Christ. We are criticizing a politician who has released a flier in which the imagery and text suggests he is a man anointed of God to be president. That tactic is as dangerous to the cause of Christ as it was when George W. Bush used it. Your suggestion that young people who “love” Senator Obama may see the cross behind him and “come to walk after the Lord” are far more likely to walk after Obama than the Lord. It’s just plain heresy to imply, even subtly, that Obama is a path to salvation.

If Obama wants to lead young people to the Lord, he should put down his political ambitions and take up evangelism.

They just keep saying, “That doesn’t bother me” about the latest thing.

Well, some of this stuff doesn’t bother me either — but that’s not the point. The point is electibility — how many voters will be bothered.

And how much of a distraction is this stuff. Is he Muslim or has he ever been? I don’t give a damn at all. I couldn’t care less.

But, If I was Obama, I’d care a lot. Those email things are devastating. And I’d be working day and night to find a shiny-new way to counter them.

Putting out pictures of Obama actually in a church though doesn’t seem appropriate.

(shaking my head)

This election is shaping up to be a train wreck.

I wish O had worn a dashiki(sic) in that photo! He would have looked just like his mentor.

We can’t talk about his Islamic background, because it’s a “smear.”

We’re not supposed to talk about Jeremiah Wright, but he sends out fliers about his “conversion” — which was instigated by Wright.

He wants to hold a “national conversation about race” — but if you try to bring the subject up in the most oblique way, his team screams that you are a “Racist!”
