Of you have such an issue with it, take it up with him or the fraud preachers he chooses, or the radicals he has been attracted to.

Christians are to judge actions, behavior, attitudes, etc. but not the individual. So, asking whether someone is a Christian without understanding what it means to be a Christian is moot.

Christians are supposed to be discerning, which involves judgment. Most secular people can't discern between the two. They love to quote "thou shalt not judge" without understanding what it means.

The Democrats have their CEOs as well. Let's be honest about it.

I don't recall criticism of the church. It's the pastor's choice of subject matter, and attack on conservatives on Easter, no less, that is the subject of discussion.

It was a simple question?

Your belief, and how to practice your faith, is your business...your pathway.

So lets be crystal clear; when others judge our actions, behaviors, and attitudes, they are decerning? correct?

Seems there are two cheeks, one on either side.

What is it called when one claims rights and priveldges, then does not extend those same rights and privelges to others...I cant think of the term?

Is there any evidence that he has said anything like this before?
