#2 "relations and conversations with Islamic leaders are a lot easier than dealings and dialogue with Jewish leaders

Well, at first I was disappointed by the Presbyterian church's actions - but now I say good...let them die on the vine. Just like Air Amerikka, these performers are going to realize you can't perform if you don't have an audience and you can't disinvest if people stop filling your offering plate.

Any church I've been to that has been a member of the National Council of Churches has sermons that reflect the dem talking points of the day. Lot's of touchy feely crap void of the teachings of Christ...so let them die. Christianity won't die with them.

Adios Presbyterian Church. See how easy that is? Taa taa.

#3 Big deal. The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.)is about half the size it was 25 years ago and will be half the size it is now in 25 years. It is the most liberal of the "split P's" and the most irrelavent. They are an embarassment to their Calvinist fathers.
The National Council of Churches representing 26 Protestant and Orthodox denominations? Big deal. There are about 25-35,000 Protestant denominations in the US. In some parts of the south, there are more kinds of Baptist churches than there are Baptists.

#4 If links can be shown between the Presbyterian Church and Hezbollah, the Prez's ought to lose their tax exempt status as a minimum.

#5 I'd say that the fact that an official delegation from Church Headquarters met with Hezbollah at all shows definitively how far from Christianity these persons have gone. This is beyond smacking of bias; this is Judenhass, plain and simple.

#6 US citizens that meet with the leadership of terrorist organs should be arrested and put on trial.
