Our country is becoming morally bankrupt. There is a definate split between right and wrong and when the time comes, we better make sure we are on the right side.

Did anyone see the post here yesterday about Women of Faith and their conference call with Michelle Obama?

I just called Women of Faith. Before I called I went to the WOF "Statement of Faith". Number 1 says, "The Bible...is the infallible, inerrant Word of God". So, I called. I spoke with someone named Shannon and asked her about the conference call that WOF sponsored with Michelle Obama yesterday. Shannon said she knew nothing about it.

I explained what I had seen and asked how WOF could support a pro-abortion candidate when their statement of faith says that the Bible is the infallible, inerrant Word of God?" She said that WOF focuses on the things that "unite" rather than "divide" Christians. I - very respectfully and calmly - repeated my stand.

I could tell Shannon was getting irritated and she said that WOF is "non-denominational". I told her that the church I attended was also non-denominational and that we study the Bible, book by book, chapter by chapter and sometimes even word by word".

I asked again about the support of a pro-abortion candidate and said that I just wanted a good answer, being that their statement of faith and their teachings don't match. At this point Shannon kind of "snapped". She went off on how WOF "doesn't teach". They are just a "gathering place" for believers to be uplifted, told how much God loves them and to be united with other women who feel the same. Then she got really ticked and said that she would transfer me to someone who might feel the same way I do and who might care! Hello??

I couldn't hear the woman who's voicemail I got but I left a very respectful message and asked for a call back. I figure I'll either hear from them on Monday OR I won't hear back from them at all. I'll let y'all know if I hear anything.
