#1 This clown doesn't understand Biblical Eschatology. Nothing man does, or does not do, has any effect whatsoever on the prophetic timetable.

His 'god' is apparently not sovereign, and is always getting his schedule taken out of whack by the actions of puny man. Some 'god'.

Small wonder that the simple message of Christ has been received with such hostility. Who would want to join asshats like this one?

#2 It is because Bush didn't sign the Kyoto treaty.

#3 Maybe He can hangout at the well and play some gin with the Twelfth Imam. 'Til the times right...

#4 An obscure evangelist named K.A. Paul.

need I say more? It would be interesting to check and see what political party this suddenly visible, obscure evangalist belonged in years past.

#5 Oh, this gets much better: Global Peace Initiative
An Indian Christian evangelist who boasts he persuaded warlord Charles Taylor to give up the Liberian presidency came to House Speaker Dennis Hastert's home Tuesday on a similar mission: to get the Republican leader to step down over the congressional page scandal.

WikiPedia: K.A. Paul
Kilari Anand Paul an Indian-born, who comes from the state of Andhra Pradesh is a Christian fundamentalist based in the U.S. city of Houston, Texas. He is the leader of "Global Peace Initiative" and "Gospel to the Unreached Millions". Paul had preached in 54 countries and was attracting large multidenominational audiences by the time he launched his first American crusade in 1999.

Read on for more interesting info.

#6 The New Republic (I think) had a cover article on Rev. Paul not too long ago (well, coupla years). What came shining through was that this guy's ego is about the size of the Hindenburg.

#7 "Evangelist" says Republicans are preventing the Second Coming

Of course, this can only be Bush's fault.

Mr. Paul, who is now based in Houston, said that the administration's foreign policy has made it impossible for Christian missionaries to work in Syria, Iran and Iraq.

Ummmmm ... no. Proper blame lies with the tyrannical regimes, theocrats, intolerant Muslim populations and terrorist operatives who cannot countenance the least sort of competition for believers.

#8 Guys,

Take it easy on this gent. I have a missionary friend who works India at times and their Christians have not been taught any Biblical material to speak of . One Indian Christian pastor told my friend he had not sinned in 15 years for example. They're in dire need of some learning of Scripture,but God love them they are in Christ.

#9 Phenias - maybe so, but hubris is one of the venial sins, vanity writ large. Sounds like a terminal case

#10 #8: "Take it easy on this gent."

Not gonna happen, PH.

This clown is an arrogant asshole with an ego that wouldn't fit through a garage door. I know a lot of Christians, and this wanker is about as non-Christian as you can get.

I think that when he dies~~none too soon~~, he's going to find out that the passage "Not everyone who says Lord, Lord shall enter the Kingdom of Heaven" is absolutely right.

#11 It's Paul's financial shenanigans charges that raise a red flag. From the WikiPedia link:
1. a large part of his ministry's income is spent on jet fuel for his 747 aircraft rather than on charity
2. In 2005, the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability terminated the membership of Paul's organization for failing to meet financial accountability and governance standards.

#14 I'm given to understand that the 12th Imam is busy playing poker with Great Cthulhu so far deep in that well that they're really in R'Lyeh.

The Big G is way to busy to deal with the likes of these two right now, but He does have an eye on Rev (cough, spit) Paul...

Cthulhu Phtagn!

#15 I can't even get my reps to reply to me about the fair tax plan and this jerkoff is wasting Hastert's time w/this nonsense. More YJCMTSU.
