Rick Warren, Obama and McCain

I got this email from the LCMS. I am wondering just why we would expect any good questions from a false teacher like Rick Warren? Why would the LCMS be promoting his shtick? Oh wait, this is the same synod that has Kari Jobe as the big draw for a youth conference. Personally I care less for the religion of a politician than I do for his competence and his philosophy of government. I care less if he's a Baptist or a Jew than if he has real principles he is willing to stand up for in office. I already know that neither of these candidates pass that test though, so I guess I'll have to be satisfied with Purpose Driven Warrenite Infotainment questions. Bah!

LCMS Notes
THE LUTHERAN CHURCH Missouri Synod


Pastor Rick Warren Interviews Presidential Candidates
Saturday, Aug. 16, in Joint Appearance


Dr. Rick Warren, pastor of Saddleback Church and author of The Purpose Driven Life, will interview presumptive presidential candidates Sens. John McCain and Barack Obama in a civil forum held at the church's Lake Forest, Calif., campus, Saturday, Aug. 16, from 5 to 7 p.m. (PST).

According to Saddleback Church's Web site, the two-hour event, which is the candidates' first joint appearance, will be held in a non-debate format. Warren will ask all questions and each candidate will converse separately with Warren for approximately one hour, beginning with Sen. Obama, as determined by a coin toss. This is the last public appearance for either candidate prior to the two-week hiatus during each party's national convention.

The interview will air on various cable television networks around the country. Check your local cable listings or visit http://www.tvguide.com/Listings/default.aspx to find the specific network carrying the interview in your location.

NBC anti-life?

I would boycott NBC, if I ever watched it that is. I actually never watch anything on the old line networks, NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX. Everything I watch is on the cable only stations... do they still broadcast over the air? Ah well, this story is about the fact that it seems NBC refused to air an ad put together by some Catholic outfit that features an embryo and all of the hardships it faced in early life ending up with the revelation that they were talking about Obama. Here is the ad , check it out and see how unoffensive it is. Like I said, if I watched them I'd quit now. :-/

Wikileaks and police state censorship

I saw an article today on SF Gate about some nit wit Bush appointed Federal Judge ordering a website I'd never heard of called Wikileaks shut down because they were publishing some bank documents from some corrupt Swiss bank. The amusing thing is that they can't actually do it! Even more amusing is that this just draws attention to the site and makes it that much more visible, yay idiot goons! :-) There are mirror sites all over the world and it's almost impossible for thuggish police state goons to figure out how to close off all of the leaks :-) One mirror site is here: http://wikileaks.be/wiki/Wikileaks The US site they tried to close down is still here: http://88.80.13.160 "Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it politic?' Vanity asks the question, 'Is it popular?' But, conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe,...

Child Driven Education

Here is a Ted Talk with Sugata Mitra on Child Driven Education... very unschooling-like I think.  :-)  I've seen videos of him before, this is an update on his research on letting groups of kids learn on the internet, mostly without any supervision at all.  Posted via email from The Angry Gnome
