Whom is Your Church aligned with?
Many faith based groups have arisen in the recent reports of torture and other such atrocities world-wide. We can all agree that torture is a nasty side effect of being a flawed human. We in our essence are flawed, imperfect and prone to destructive ways. Even those that have no organized faith so to speak, feel the same about this issue as we, those that do have a set foundation for our values and principals for living life, do.
The question is, just what do these groups have to do with world wide torture when they mainly focus just on the few failures of America. Why have they aligned themselves with such foes of the United states like the lap dog of terrorism, The Yorkie Slimes. Should we not be outraged and at least slightly miffed and embarrassed to know that such upstanding men like Rick Warren, the author of "The Purpose Driven Life" are on this same anti-american bandwagon. Perhaps some of these people have been duped into what the real agenda for such groups are.
Mark D. Tooley has written an informative piece on this, go take a gander at it.

I don't think my church would ever sign on to something like this -- they'd better not! It's scary because religious leaders can have a lot of influence and fool people into thinking their cause is righteous (fanatic muslims, for example!)
Anyway, it's always a good idea to steer very clear of anything Jimmy Carter endorses.
