Reply #5: Yes...but our "spineless" Christians did NOT FIGHT BACK. We didn't

[KoKo]

press the issue...we didn't blast the media and force our spokespeople onto Fox, CNN, MSNBC.

We are now "marginalized voices in the wilderness." Our leaders speak but they don't call for ACTION...They voice their congregations concerns who were against the Invasion but allowed the issue to languish when they got "blow back" from those who though 9/11 was caused by Saddam and they sit and let Faux Network corrupt their congregations and marginalize the very folks they tried to support by their "do nothingness" but issue directives in print from their Bishops or the National Council of Churches.

They are silent as they lose member to the fundie churches. Look at the numbers on the "mainsteam churches." All losing to the churches who give you "happy entertainment, Contemporary Services" where the congregation sings dances and claps to Contemporary Christian Music in fellowship. Those are the Churches gaining power...the "Happy Christian Talkers" who provide "non-stop" entertainment and expression of JOY FOR JESUS! Happy, singing, dancing Bush types who don't want to deal with the very heavy issues. They want to "entertain" and collect money for the entertainment, missionary efforts to spread Christianity to the infidels and causes which make them feel good...but they miss what the root of the problems are in these places they want to lead their Crusades and Missionary efforts into. Do these folks want it? Will they accept it? What are you trying to replace their beliefs with? Is it better than what they have? What's our Christian track record when we Evangelize?

But, the HARD ISSUES: DEATH/WAR/DESTRUCTION and WHAT WOULD JESUS DO are lost in this "grab for a mobile American society looking for joy, song and dance in their lives..which they don't get in their "McMansions" or "Mobile Homes" and this gives that great sense of belonging without really saying WHAT WOULD JESUS FEEL ABOUT ENDLESS WAR AGAINST EVERYONE?
