Religious Right Loosing Ground Among Evangilicals
Thursday, February 7, 2008  2:45:00 PM

by Thomas B. Crosthwaite



Religion
Once a powerful influnce in the Republican party, this once near monolitic voting bloc is now changing.

One reason for this is it's aging leaders. Dr. James Dobson is 71. Rev. Pat Roberson is 77 and the Rev Jerry Falwell died last year at 73. These leaders are being replaced by younger more moderate leaders such as Rick Warren.

John Green, an University of Akron political scientist and author of the book, "The Faith Factor: How Reigion Infunces American Elections" fail to mention what I believe is the most important reason for the decline, and that is beacuse the Christian Right is Biblically errant.

Jesus told us that he kindom was not of this world, but these men are very much a part of this world.

The Rev. Tim Mc Have, who helped Rev. Jerry Fawell found the Moral Majority, reportedly signed a 44 million dollar contract with Dell Publishing for four end of time novals, and the Rev. Pat Roberson is said to have owned a race horse, named Mr. Pat.

While millions of people believe that Christanity will make them rich, the Bible expresses strong socialistic sentiments. [Examples, The Rich Man and Lazarus, The Widow's Mite and the Rich Young Ruler]. These are powerfully articulated.

In the story of The Rich Young Ruler, the young man asked Jesus what he had to do to be saved, and was told to go sell all that he had, give the proceeds to the poor, and come follow him. We are told that he went away sorrowfully.

I know of nothing that has been more misreprented than some forms of Christanity.
