They’ll come around when the Bush tax cuts expire, but then it will be too late.

What is an “Emerging Church Christian”?
Is that the new code word for Cafeteria Catholic and the like?

“It seems many are looking at areas of social justice, the war, etc...as much as abortion.”
Sounds more like a social gospel. Those people haven’t been in the Republican Camp for quite some time.

If these “Christians” are for “social justice” why in the world would they vote for a candidate who sees no evil or injustice in forcing a baby to be born prematurely and then gutting the baby in the back of his or her head and sucking out his or her brains?
Obama takes the most extreme and evil position imaginable on this issue. How could these endorse such a man using a Christianity as a justification?

There are many, many christians who are conservative on abortion and homosexuality but who are not fiscal conservatives.
Hillary and her ilk have had a plan to pick these out of the GOP for a long time and this election they unfortunately might do it.

Many “members” of the emerging “church” (funny terms since many advocate that church is toxic) are post-modernists. By definition, they do not believe in Truth (each person can have his own “truth”). When they have no Truth, it is easily to go whichever way the wind blows.

I think you've got it all backwards. Christians who are very firm on the issues of abortion and/or homosexuality are the LAST group of people who Hillary! would target. They are after the soft Christians. The ones who are "socially moderate but fiscally conservative"...

Hey did you see that segment on Soros and how he gets his money out to liberal organizations on the O’Reilly Factor? Looked like how the Mafia use to do it.

If these Christians are for social justice why in the world would they vote for a candidate who sees no evil or injustice in forcing a baby to be born prematurely Because abortion is decreasing in importance for these people, who are mostly bluer-collar workers (not necessarily laborers but not in higher positions.) They will buy the government-solution propoganda, and when they start to hear the Dems start to quote from the Bible they will buy what they are saying.

Is anyone else experiencing this?The EC movement is greatly influenced by secular postmodernism. So yes, I have experienced it since the movement first gained steam. They have no real standard, other than subjective feelings, and tend to be shallow thinking.

They are after the soft Christians These are the Christians the poster is talking about.
