Well I disagree and if you think I have not given MY reasons for why I feel this way then you have not been paying attention, If you think my reasons were not good enough for YOU, then that is fine Dan. You are welcome to your opinion of this man. Seriously, but I was really kinda of surprised someone really believed or considered him a great Christian or solid Christian leader. Seriously, if that is how you and the other Dan feels, that's fine. Don't lose any sleep over the fact that I disagree with you ok?

Your first reason was you did'nt think preachers should be involved politically ... imagine if Martin Luther [Reformation], Dr. King and other hadn't been???

What are your other reasons ... he's a cessasionist ... is not enough.

I DON'T think preachers should be politicans, but where did I say that was MY reason for saying he was not a great Christian leader?

That he is a cessasionist has nothing to do with being a Christian leader. Remember dan I am not saying he was not a Christian nor am I saying he was not a leader.

Second, Dan, I never said he was NOT a "great leader". I did not consider him a great CHRISTIAN leader. If that is your sacred cow and you feel I stepped on your toes little buddy then forgive me. But for the reasons listed I never did consider him a great or solid Christian leader. He was a very VISIBLE Christian.....he was a very politically active Christian, but I never considered him a great Christian leader.

.....He might be a leader. He might be a visible voice for morality. That does not make the man necessarily a great christian leader.

More Praxeas ... PRETZEL LOGIC ....


He is a great leader? Is he a visible Christian? Is he a leader, christian and even great? The more I read these two quotes ... the more confusing and twisted it becomes

What is it that bothers you ... Prax ??? Stringing it all into one little phrase

Say it w/ me ...

GREAT CHRISTIAN LEADER .
...

ONE MORE TIME ....
