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.

The Tea Parties

I didn't make our local Tea Party , but it pulled hundreds of people as well... Tea, anyone? from Father Hollywood by Father Hollywood Like hundreds of thousands of other Americans, the Hollywoods enjoyed a tea party this past Wednesday. "Tea party" (wink wink). Nothing subversive about sipping a little Darjeeling, eh wot? Nothing to see here, Miss Napolitano. Anyway, our local festivities were held at Veterans Memorial Boulevard in Metairie. There were literally thousands of people crammed into the neutral ground (though on that day, the ground was anything but...), as cars and trucks poured by the busy boulevard laing on their horns in support. Here are pictures. And like every such gathering in our environs, there was even a brass band and an improptu "second line" parade. It was a "party" after all. But it was a party with a serious reason. The crowds were so overwhelming that it was hard to hear the speakers, and unfortunately, we did have a fe...

Viva California! USA out of California Now!

Gene Veith points to a Russian who predicts the breakup the American Empire. Gene is somehow unaware of the dozens of secessionist movements in various states. Granted they are almost all small but still, they exist and this could be a good time for us. Those who know me already understand that I'm a California Nationalist who I doesn't think California should have joined those united States in the first place. Being a part of that empire just costs us money, we get nothing in return. These days we get to be hated by foreigners for being Americans and mocked by Americans for being Californians. Getting us out of the US yesterday would be a day too late as far as I'm concerned.

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
