I think there are way too many opinions out there. I don't pretend to speak for anyone. I sit back and listen. I think there is a difference in speaking out for social justice and pretending to speak for the church. At least Obama is an elected official with a majority of Americans that voted for him. How many people voted for the nutjob in that video in order for him to speak for the church? At least the Pope is elected head of the catholics, Bernard can speak for the upc and be credible, but who does the nutjob in the video represent? A congregation of 500, when there are millions of congregations with opposing views? I don't think this guy has a firm grip on reality, neither do conservatives who think like him.
