Ok, I don't care if they are religious men, they are a#$wipes.
Matthew 5:14-16 (NIV)
"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. [15] Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. [16] In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.
I thinke the context in the above still matches the President's quote and Reagans and they are the words of Jesus....
The Fuller folks have forgotten, if you are in Christ, you are the light...
I'm not saying if Jesus would or would not have agreed with the War on Iraq, my belief is that he raises up nations and tears them down. Unrigteousness in Iraq and it's leadership was and is demonic. Daniel witnessed the work of the Prince of Persia, when he was at th Tigris river.
If this leads to a more stable situation for Israel in the long run, I know God is behind it. Look at the situation. Iran is now isolated. They have Aghanistan on one side and Iraq on the other. We have troops in both nations, as well as Kuwait and Qatar.
Libya suddenly is becoming more reasonable
Syria is now cut off from support from Iraq. We now have the region so cut up that none would be in a position to
attack Israel with any real hope of success.
Don't know, sounds like it might be God to me.

These silly anti-war professors seem to be always with us, like warts. Their lack of political judgment is an embarassment to the Christian community and to all informed conservatives. It would be interesting to know to what extent they protested the persecution of Christians in Africa, or for that matter, what stand they have taken on the abortion holocaust.

we put up with this type of crap every week in the Tulsa Catholic newspaper. After a few letters, I stopped reading it...
The bishops won't make a "political statement" on communion for abortion pushing politicians either.

AND HERE IS HOW A FAMOUS PERSON DEALT WITH THEOLOGY:
Does Evil Exist?
This has a thought provoking message no matter how you believe.
Does evil exist? The university professor challenged his students with this
question. Did God create everything that exists?
A student bravely replied, "Yes, he did!" "God created everything?" The
professor asked. "Yes sir", the student replied.
The professor answered, "If God created everything, then God created evil.
Since evil exists, and according to the principal that our works define who
we are, then God is evil".
The student became quiet before such an answer.
The professor was quite pleased with himself and boasted to the students
that he had proven once more that the Christian faith was a myth.
Another student raised his hand and said, "Can I ask you a question
professor?" "Of course", replied the professor. The student stood up and
asked, "Professor, does cold exist?" "What kind of question is this? Of
course it exists. Have you never been cold?" The students snickered at the
young man's question.
The young man replied, "In fact sir, cold does not exist. According to the
laws of physics, what we consider cold is in reality the absence of heat.
Every body or object is susceptible to study when it has or transmits
energy, and energy is what makes a body or matter have or transmit heat.
Absolute zero (- 460 degrees F) is the total absence of heat; all matter
becomes inert and incapable of reaction at that temperature.
Cold does not exist. We have created this word to describe how we feel if we
have no heat.
The student continued. "Professor, does darkness exist?" The professor
responded, "Of course it does". The student replied, "Once again you are
wrong sir, darkness does not exist. Darkness is in reality the absence of
light.
Light we can study, but not darkness. In fact we can use Newton's prism to
break white light into many colors and study the various wavelengths of each
color. You cannot measure darkness. A simple ray of light can break into a
world of darkness and illuminate it. How can you know how dark a certain
space is? You measure the amount of light present. Isn't this correct?
Darkness is a term used by man to describe what happens when there is no
light present."
Finally the young man asked the professor. "Sir, does evil exist?" Now
uncertain, the professor responded, "Of course as I have already said. We
see it every day. It is in the daily example of man's inhumanity to man. It
is in the multitude of crime and violence everywhere in the world. These
manifestations are nothing else but evil."
To this the student replied, "Evil does not exist sir, or at least it does
not exist unto itself. Evil is simply the absence of God. It is just like
darkness and cold, a word that man has created to describe the absence of
God. God did not create evil. Evil is not like faith, or love that exist
just as does light and heat. Evil is the result of what happens when man
does not have God's love present in his heart.
It's like the cold that comes when there is no heat or the darkness that
comes when there is no light."
The professor sat down.

Hope the Seminary is not hit in a future terror attack.
A group of "scholars" from the arcane and highly nuanced field of religion and theology, trying desperately for relevancy by updating their age old arguments of God vs Satan and good vs evil by drawing parallels to Bush vs Islamofascists - in which Bush is seen as both Satan and evil. Very strange.
there are some nuts over at Fuller...
belated bump for exposure
I am sure Glenn Palmberg of the Evangelical Covenant was in on this, he seems to hang on Wallis's coattails quite obviously.
