Hey, Richard Land is a Southern Baptist who lives, I don't know where he lives, 
but I don't think its Alaska.  What is the issue you are pushing Marlena?  I 
thought you were arguing about Palin.  She belong to an AOG church and then 
switch to a non-denominationalist church.  What does Land have to do with 
Palin?  Have you given up on Palin and decided to indict all of Conservative 
Christianity?

I, on the other hand, am sticking to the subject.  Obama credits Wright with 
changing his life.  Wright subscribes to the Black Liberation Theology of James 
Cone.  It is fair to look at what Wright says.  He preached to Obama for 17 
years.  And it is fair to listen to the teachings of James Cone who created, 
along with Hopkins, the theology that Wright subscribes to.

Subject: [lit-ideas] Faith, Poltics and influence 

Hi, Lawrence,
Actually, as you know, I was pointing out the influence of the Far 
Christian Right on the Republican Party.

Who has the power in the Republican Party?  Who threatened McCain with 
sure defeat if he did not bow to their wishes?  What else has been 
hanging, now, over his head?  And, I LIKED McCain!  I did!  but, I do 
not like the tactics being used against him at this point in time. He 
actually won the Republcian primary.  I think he had a wonderful chance 
to be the man of moderation that he has been--but he has tossed all 
that aside for the attempt to win--and Obama is not Bush with the Bush 
handlers. They actually could have had a decent issue-oriented race of 
integrity.

Who has held McCain hostage?  Who?  Please go look at Richard Land 
(esp), Gary Bauer, etc.  Please.  Your Republican Party, and mine--is 
not the same as you remember it.
