Out of Ur has an interesting article entitled AIDS Activism Makes Strange Bedfellows.
I found the article interesting and well thought out. What I found disturbing is some of the comments and the overall response to Rick Warren inviting the “unholy” to the prayer breakfast. One of the commenters said that her concern was that Christians might just read the headlines that Obama was at Warren’s prayer breakfast and think Obama is ok to vote for, thus our country will get handed over to “democrats and liberals”.
Another commenter said that, and I quote, “Jesus did not die on the cross so we could help those less fortunate. He died on the cross to save us from our sins.” Wow.
When we dissect the Gospel down to a ticket to heaven, or the rule of Republicans in office, we are really missing the point.
