Unless something is found to be dangerously diversive to our nations security, NO ONE should be monitoring ANYONE ELSE"S religion.

In so much as horrible racism being preached from the pulpit by Mr. Wright, preaching racism is not against the law. It is what it is and we, THE AMERICAN PUBLIC must make the dems and the liberals and the religious racists pay the price for their racism at the polls.

We must not be trapped into allowing this bunch to monitor true Christianity, in its purest form, because we are alarmed by their rhetoric and allow the government to step into religious monitoring.

This is what would happen if we are not careful and we allow ourselves to over-react. We are doing just fine by dealing with this with our Conservative media outlets.

We should definately keep monitoring. Did anyone notice that Bill Clinton visited Joel Osteen two weeks ago? He comes off as evangelical, but Joel Osteen is a theological lightweight when it comes to Christianity.

Something needs to be done about liberals who hide their flaming ideas behind a veil of religion.

I think the government as a whole should be monitoring the religious left.  I don't understand how Obama and Hillary can push their politics in churches and nobody says anything about separation of church and state.  But Huckabee or Romney would have every word they said monitored.

My husband is a non-denominational pastor.  He was hired by 2 local UCC churches.  He left one in August and the other church left the UCC.  These are both small-town Iowa churches.  During the caucus we received regular calls from the local Obama rep about materials available to us to present his position.  He and I had an exchange once when he called to foist his presentation on us.  I told him we try not to mix politics with the church.  His response to me was "Well, you know Mr. Obama is UCC, right?"  I told him I was aware of that then he said:  "The state conference endorses this material."  I told him I would pass the info on to my husband.  My husband did not call him back.

The UCC is a very liberal denomination.  There are individual churches that practice a religion that looks nothing like Christianity.  People from more traditional churches have a hard time understanding how the UCC is set up.  They are affiliated with each other (and Congregational churches) but the denomination does not own the buildings or have any claim on the money each church receives.

If you haven't been to the UCC Truths website I highly recommend it.  Another organization that will help with information is Biblical Witness Fellowship.  Both of these are run by people within the UCC who are trying to work from within to help right the wrongs the UCC is trying to pass off as Christian theology.

Our church wasn't up for the fight so they left the UCC.  The other church chose the lies of the denomination over biblical truth so my husband moved on.  There is soooo much more going on here than people are aware of.  It definitely needs looked at, but not by the government.  Chuck Grassley is worried about televangelists but no one ever held a gun to my head to make me donate money to one.  The government is a different story.  As phony as some televangelists are I think Chuck is looking in the wrong direction.

"We are going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good."  Hillary Clinton, 6-28-04 San Francisco

I accept blame for much of this.  I visited a Black Church for a funeral, but that's about it.  It's my own fault for believing African Americans hear pretty much the same message weekly that I do.

Who knew (according to Eleanor Clift, Rev. Butts, and Donna Brazile), who knew of the uplifting message of hate being disseminated by these messengers of God?

Whether it's religion or any other issue, the Democrats consistently lie knowing full well that the truth is on record. They don't care if they are called out for their lies because they know that too many voters watch talk shows and news broadcasts on the major networks which are liberal (some are rabidly liberal such as "The View") .

Religion has traditionally been off  limits (with a few notable exceptions). The Democrats have made religion an issue in this campaign. We need to respond to them on their own turf.

So, what's a radical mosque called -- Liberal or Conservative? The Libs would call it Conservative, I believe. If so, would the Libs (who always want to monitor the "Conservative" religion) want to monitor what goes on in a mosque? Or would racism be charged, forcing the Libs off this monitoring? Or would the libs simply proclaim "immigrant brotherhood" and excuse themselves that way?

I know, a little off-topic here, but curious nontheless.

Rev. Pat Robertson on Hugo Chavez:

exercise that ability,"

Who's watching this bag of nuts violate FCC rules?

The reason why we should monitor them is for the same reason they monitor us.  As soon as some priest or pastor advocates from the pulpit that their flock vote for some conservative candidate, suppport a particular conservative position, or vote against some liberal initiative, they start screaming for the IRS to investigate that church and go after their non-profit status.  We need to apply this same tactic to the Left Liberal churches who get a pass for their activities.  Iam a firm believer in the Sauce for the Goose Principal.
