See #429 Preacher. And don’t assign ‘hate’ to someone without proof. As Christians, we are supposed to hate the sin, but love the sinner. For an alleged pastor, you seem eager to sling that ‘hate’ word around.

Think about it.

________________

(1) Seems we (FReepers)may have had this argument before on other threads — that were similarly NOT about Palin until Palin-haters turned them into Palin-hating threads

(2) “Hate” is a strong word — and the only one that seems to fit those who have a knee-jerk, projectile-vomit response to the lovely lady from Wasilla. They drink the kool-aid and when the anti-Palin heaves hit, the bile of hatred flies! They can’t help it. It’s akin to “Bush hatred,” or maybe even to anti-semitism or racism...

(3) As a Preacher of the Gospel, usually I’m on the receiving end of accusuations of “hatred,” so it’s SAD when I have to point out how VILE the sin of hatred is to people who claim to be fellow travellers in the ranks of Conservatism. But because I “love the sinner,” I DO point it out.

(4) As I’ve said before, I don’t AGREE with Sarah supporting McCain — but I understand WHY she did it. WIthout McCain she wouldn’t have a national stage from which to speak. She was his VP running mate. Her decision was “political payback.” I didn’t agree with her, I don’t LIKE or SUPPORT John McCain — but it’s part of the game at that level. I wouldn’t play the game. She did in this case. Her call. I don’t have to LIKE every decision she made. END OF STORY.

(5) CAN WE NOW FIGHT THE ENEMY? The REAL ENEMY? Those on the LEFT? Those in WASHINGTON DC? Those behind flooding our borders? Judges? Bureaucrats? Please? Or do you just want to single out more Conservatives you don’t quite agree with 5% of the time and beat us up — and do Obama’s thugs job for them?
