The spineless U.S. Pastors don’t even notice these things nor rile up their congregations to work mto change it. If they were half as brave as true news reporters of old some of the pastors would be there helping and in solidarity. These spineless blind watchmen over their sheep cant see 800 churches burnt in once peaceful Kenya since Obama stirred the muslammic Christian hatred pot down there. There sheep are voting Obama now blithwely strolling to Obamaian Mosul-like slaughter and dispossession Just as the Obamaian democrats said of John Ashcroft. Serves another country another King. Pastors have to jettison the tax deduction mammon and re empower the powerless church worldwide. Saving the tax deduction is failure to launch into adult responsible Christian leaders and churches that can make a difference in Mosul, Kenya where Obama was instrumental in displacing a million black African souls, and in our own election. Our pastors should hang their head in shame in the presence of John McCain and Governor Palin.
