- I don't know all the details of the activities of "Operation Rescue", but
- as many of you know, I watch Rush and 700 Club all the time and don't
- remember this being mentioned at all in any of my "conservative" shows.
-
- Right or wrong, if it had nation wide support of OR, I think it would
- have hit one of those two shows.
-
- Another comment. There is the 5-fold ministry, and one of those is
- prophet. The prophet points out, usually bluntly, when things go wrong.
- I wouldn't doubt that this would have been similar to John telling the
- king he was in error taking his brother's wife or what ever. Poor John
- lost his head over this one.
-
- Maybe they were a bit misguided. It might have been even better to simply
- have a quiet candle vigil outside the church for the 24 hours before and
- the 24 hours after. To keep totally quiet during the protest.
-
- I totally disagree with any comparisons to the gays and all. After all, did
- they force their way into the church? Did they then break things and urinate
- all over the church floor. If there were any news broadcasts, was it so full
- of profanity that you could only get about 1 out of 10 words.
-
- As an example of a demonstration, some may remember my "Children of the
- Rainbow" and "District 24" who was protesting. Well, the gays showed up at
- District 24 and this was shown on BOTH the 700 Club and Rush Limbaugh. They
- had news footage of it. It went something like 'Oh yea? @#@$#$ !@#*@ @*#)@@
- and you can @#@#$ @#&@ @!&^##, and furthermore, !@^&@@ @^@#@!!!!" I mean
- even straining through the "beeps", you couldn't make an intelligent
- conversation in the whole room. What's more, it was getting so out of hand
- they canceled the session and had the police expel ALL the people.
-
- And we have Christians who are willing to compare our own people to the
- likes of this. As was pointed out, many of them are quite dedicated and
- committed Christians. Look at Paul in jail, "I knew I shouldn't have
- been so committed, now I AM committed!" :-)
-
- Maks.
