“Just Us” Sunday
The Highland is not the Highview and not all Kentucky Baptists are theocons (from ABC News):
“This is deceptive, manipulative and false,” said Joe Phelps [Pastor of the Highland Baptist Church in Louiville],who joined nearly two dozen other ministers Friday at a news conference to criticize the [Justice Sunday] event [at Highview Baptist]. “Stop. Please stop.”The Rev. Robert W. Edgar, general secretary of the National Council of Churches, said the event splits people of faith into those who agree with Perkins’ group and those who don’t, resulting in a polarization of Christian voters.
“This ad campaign should be called ‘Just Us Sunday’ instead of ‘Justice Sunday,’” Edgar said.

Shalom Sherry,
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I’ve been waiting for Christians to start speaking out about the hijacking of their faith by the Theocons.
B’shalom,
Jeff

I am highly offended that this event is happening here in Kentucky. But I do see hope that reasonable Christians will protest this highjacking by the extreme right wing.
