When I pointed out the hypocrisy of the religious right and that ultracons commit adultery, too, you whined.
Charnock Ive never whined. You did not portray your complaint as "See? They do it too!"
Rather you portrayed it as "See? This is what happens when you are a legalist"
The fact that it happens across the board disproves that this is the result of legalism or dress codes.
Charnock the only one whining is you...proof? This is the POLITICS forum and you dragged an issue from a completely different forum and issue, rather than letting it die, to RENEW your beef with me here.

There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
Every sinner must repent of their sins.
That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.

“I think they hate Obama. They want him out of the White House more than they want to destroy Al Qaeda. Their No. 1 enemy in the world right now, on the right, is their hatred, hatred for Obama. And we can go into that about the white working class in the South and looking at these numbers we're getting the last couple days about racial hatred in many cases … this isn't about being a better president, they want to get rid of this president,’ he said.”
I'm not sure if it is only about racial hate or if it is a product of the monolithic identities that exists in out political landscape. I would imagine the reactions would be pretty similar if a prominent UPC-type pastor tweeted an endorsement of President Obama.

Why can't someone disagree with Obama and not be called a racist?
I don't believe the underlying sentiment is Stacy Dash, a black woman, is a racist who hates black people. Like I said, it has more to do with this monolithic environment that our system has fostered and created. Just like in the example I gave, I don't believe Apostolic people on the right would feel that the prominent pastor is an atheist who hates Apostolics...it's just that he is a crab who crossed the picket line, so to speak.

Im referring to the quote I just posted today.
MSNBC host Chris Matthews
“I think they hate Obama. They want him out of the White House more than they want to destroy Al Qaeda. Their No. 1 enemy in the world right now, on the right, is their hatred, hatred for Obama.

The over all point to this thread is the race card. I point out that there are racist and haters on both sides so why is it the reason given for not liking Obama is racial hatred by this man?
