From the BP News, (Baptist Press News) complete story here:
http://www.sbc.net/redirect.asp?url=http://www.bpnews.net/bpnews.asp?id=20418Any questions about the religious right carrying water for repubs?
"If Congress is not willing to assert itself as a co-equal branch of government in this case -- preserve its authority to conduct its investigation, preserve the life of Terri Schiavo ... when will it ever assert itself?"
OR
"As it currently stands the executive and legislative branches are continually seeing their intent frustrated by a court system that has shown itself to be zealous in the protection of its own turf -- so much so that it is willing to usurp the authority of the other branches of government," he said.
If Congress does not act, Connor said, many people will question whether congressional laments about "an out-of-control judiciary" are serious.
I especially like this little jab, righteously done and with love of the sinner, modeling Christ in their acts and words:
"While her husband, Michael Schiavo, says she would not want to live in her present state, no written request exists. Meanwhile, he has lived with his girlfriend, by whom he has fathered two children."
Never missing a chance to rebuke sin from the pulpit, just as the SBC has done regarding the marital indiscretions of Newt, Barr, and others, NOT!!!!
