Hugh Hewitt's Symposium

Weekend Symposium 3: How deep a hole have John Kerry, Mary Beth Cahill and the Edwards dug for themselves? How lasting the damage?

Here's the skinny. This was an obvious attempt to drive a wedge into the Christian base of the GOP and it's going to backfire. They want to keep all those evangelicals who didn't vote in the previous presidential election from voting in this one. This effort by the Kerry/Edwards ticket shows how ignorant they are concerning biblical Christian thought. Liberals constantly demagogue Christians as being homophoebs. They think we are a bunch of non-inclusive backwards country bumpkins who can barely string a complete sentence together.

But the truth is, genuine Christianity loves the sinner (which is all of us) but hates the sin. The genuine Christian also knows that we all struggle with our own issues of sin. We know that perfection is not possible and that is why we need Christ as our savior.

All of those evangelicals who didn't vote last time are going to see that the Cheney's love their daughter regardless of her lifestyle. They are also going to look at the abortion, stem-cell, and appointment of judges issues that are at the forefront of this years election. And they are going to see the blatant exploitation by the Kerry/Edwards ticket. And they are going to show up at the poles!
