Warren sell more books and make more $$$$.

Bingo. Rick Warren has become a fake and a fraud in my view, the same as Benny Hinn and the rest of the "televangelists" who say to send them money, then place your hands on the TV so they can heal you.

Sadly, he will also be no more effective in shaping the world of politics than was Billy.

Billy Graham wasn't worried about politics or being politically correct. He was (and is) focused on the Lord's work and saving souls. You can't help but see that when you see him speak to a crowd. He's an amazing warrior, and I suspect there's a very special place in heaven for him.

I agree! Billy’s reward is not of this world. I was merely pointing out that many politicians use him (and now Warren) as religious bunting on their political grandstands.

He doesn’t support Homosexual marriage saying that he does is a lie. Too many conservatives seem to take glee in discerning the minds of those who are not as fiery as they would like. I don’t care much for his brand of religion but then again there are a lot about organized religion I don’t like in general. There are far too many sanctimonious prophets who if you judged them from their dress alone one might think they are a little on the limp wristed side. I don’t know where he stands on global warming and really don’t care. It is a farce but of course such falsehoods tend to make themselves evident of their own accord.

I wrote "Anyone who accepts homosexual marriage or civil unions" and I did NOT say he supports them, I said he ACCEPTS them. He DOES support the phony Global Warming scam, and he is a very liberal interpreter of the Holy Bible and a false doctrine theologist.
