#1 Maybe my search function is broken, but I only saw child of God, not servant.

#3 Maybe he's switched to Kali rather than the God of Abraham, then it makes sense.

#4 Wrong.

He's quite clearly the enemy referenced when he wrote "But I have not been praying for my enemy, as Christ commanded."

Reading is fundamental.

#5 "wrong" as in "Servant of God" is wrong... at least it is now. Was it there before, and edited since? (I'd have a hard time believing that.)

#6 I'd be more suspecious of who RG is. I don't recognize the moniker.

#7 "God even loves -- yes, I'm sure it's true whether they know it or not -- France."
That's it -- he's totally discredited.

#8 All

I am the one that posted the link. Originally he had 'your servant, Osama Bin Laden' at least three times. The anti-war reverand has since changed it to 'your child'.

That drew a lot of comments, almost double what he normally sees at his blog, and word was traveling fast across the blogosphere. So he changed it as a CYA move.

His son is a volunteer in the military supporting the WOT effort, including Iraq, yet the good minister is anti-war and like other people on the left with questionable integrity, he changed his post to try to stop a fire storm.

#9 I will pray for OBL when he is toast - "May God have mercy on his soul." I fact, I'll think pray for that right now.

*I* don't think "The Big Guy" will have much mercy on OBL's soul, but then.... I ain't The Big Guy!
