I thought Bubba was a Seven-Day Adventurist...

“This is an attempt to bring people together and say, ‘What would our Christian witness require of us in the 21st century?’” Clinton said, adding that his goal is to be a “cheerleader” for the group. Why am I not surprised there are numerous itching ears to swallow this degenerate liar's spittle? Why is not surprising that Jimmy Carter is right there at bill clinton's feet? Are we unaware of what clinton's 'witness' is, or have we lost sight of jimmy and bill's aiding and abetting the terrorists enemies by vigorously seeking to undermine our duly elected president as a means to empower their liberal degenerate party? Is America really so far gone that this obscene effort will succeed in duping so many Baptists?

[day10]

Let's hope they never do.

[subterfuge]

Has Clinton made his customary deletions with regards to what constitutes "sex"?

Bill Clinton's definitions of sin:

-NOT oogling an attractive co-ed passing by.

-NOT making a pass at any old hag given the opportunity.

-NOT taking the opportunity to sell-out your fellow Americans or your country for $$$ or power.

You get the idea.

'A New Baptist Covenant?

One that antisemitic and claiming that "Jesus is the son of God" will depend on what the meaning of the word 'is' is!

[spinestein]

[Former Presidents Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton have proposed the establishment of a broadly inclusive alternative Baptist movement to counter what they called a negative image of Baptists and to address poverty, the environment and global conflicts.]



It's already been done. They call themselves "Unitarians"

[You Dirty Rats]

Bill Clinton, Holy Man.

The endorsement of Bill Clinton is enough to completely discredit any religious organization. The same applies to Jesse "Love Child" Jackson.

I am not a Baptist, Southern or otherwise, but I'm laughing hysterically at Bubba trying to use his "moral authority" to define a religious organization. I think if I was a Southern Baptist I'd be laughing just as much.

As for JC the Carpenter, any man who would sit next to Michael Moore on national TV is not a man to take seriesly. I don't think many people are fooled these days by his Elmer Gantry routine.

LMAO!!

I'm not kidding! ;-)

[Froufrou]

Just guessing, but upholding the commandment not to bear false witness might just be included, ya think?

[PistolPaknMama]

Leaders from the Southern Baptist Convention were not invited to attend.

AND.... “This is an attempt to bring people together...Clinton said,

Don't you just loathe lying hypocrites?

[presidio9]

It's already been done. They call themselves "Unitarians"

The Unitarians are the nuballs who talk about the "moral authority" (but definitely not "divinity") of Jesus of Nazareth, right?

[Constantine XIII]

Morris H. Chapman, president of the Southern Baptist Convention Executive Committee, said that Carter’s concerns about negative perceptions of Baptists ring hollow.

“He has been one of the most vocal critics of Southern Baptists, using ‘fundamentalist’ as a pejorative and drawing a caustic comparison between Ayatollah Khomeini’s rise to power in Iran and the resurgence of conservative leadership being elected in the SBC,” Chapman wrote to Baptist Press.

Yeah, Jimmah would know all about THAT, now wouldn't he? :p

[Last Laugh]

The welfare state is a mark of shame on the Body of Christ.

It is the Welfare State that prohibits the Body of Christ to give in Christs Name.

If a person can take drugs, sleep around, not work for a living, yet still be fed and clothed, where is the need to come to Crist or be taught about Christ?

The Church was giving freely, while teaching Gods Word to those in need. The Welfare State TOOK AWAY those in need.

[SaintDismas]

This is just part of their "divide and conquer" strategy. They know that the demoncrats hold on power is tenuous, why? Because people of faith unite to try to keep a moral order in this country, and it ain't with them. They know of the power we wield at the ballot box and whatever they have to do to keep congress and gain the white house, they will do. Check out what they are trying to do to grass-roots issue advocacy by proposing the new law (Reid) These groups would have to "register" with the fed. govt. before they started their grass-roots efforts on anything (ie., miles and miles of red-tape, govt. monitoring of their activites--all in the name of stamping out "corruption")
These power hungry bastards DO NOT care about anyone but themselves

[presidio9]

Come to think of it, there isn't any commandment that Clinton didn't ignore repeatedly except 5. By all accounts, his father was a scumbag, so he gets a pass on honoring him.

[Waco]

One senile and one bastard, bastardizing a "religion".

[therut]

I thought liberals believed in Separation of Church and STATE. I guess they have been lying all along. Imagine that.

[pby]

It's already been done. They call themselves "Unitarian".

...or Purpose Driven.

[BMIC]

Um, there's already an "inclusive", ultra-liberal Baptist group: they're called the American Baptists. If they're not "inclusive enough, go join the Unitarian Universalists, as already suggested.
