Christian Leftist

The definition of peace now includes the promotion of environments that avoid conflicts over land and natural resources. Al Gore and the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) will share the prize jointly. Al ore is going to donate his $1.5 million winnings to helping to counteract global warming.

CNN International did a great piece today on it, and was fair enough to refute the falsehoods of this one conservative commentator who tried to pass off the old lie that there isn’t a consensus on global warming. Good for CNN International. The regular CNN often lets guest commentators use it as a bully pulpit to spew biased propaganda, and I’m glad that the company at least knows that the global community doesn’t appreciate a program that lets anyone come on and say anything without substantiation.

Today is such a great day.

There is one person in American politics who almost no one slanders without severe repercussions, and he was assassinated over 35 years ago. Martin Luther King, Jr. didn’t have the opportunity or the motivation to talk about gay marriage, but his family does now, and thus they are a house divided.

Coretta Scott King, his widow, supports the full and equal rights of the BGTL community.
One of her sons supports her in opposing a Constitutional ban on gay marriage, but has not gone so far as to say that he supports full and equal rights for all.
Her daughter has marched in support of a ban on same-sex marriage.

Does anyone else see the hypocrisy in defending one group of people previously chained by supposed Biblical support for slavery (which has now been debunked) and hating another group of people based on the same premises?

Hate and bigotry will never convince people to accept Christ as their savior. It will, however, serve to further alienate them from those who try to do good in His name.
