    Evangelicals are twisting the word of Christ. I am trying so hard to tell you, that they are wanting to make money off their parishioners. They only speak the word of the New Testement. They DO NOT speak the history, the poems, the love stories, etc. They do not speak of anything but their own saving.

    Jesus Christ, took everyone in. You do not need an evangelical to tell you that. They want your MONEY! They will also tell you that they need a plane to fly higher to God.

    Us, Catholic know this.

    And, there are again - 23 different types of Catholics. I am of the Maronite Faith. And Arabs know Maronite. We fight hard.

    Evangelical religion is a fake. It is them taking words from bible, to make money. They themselves, do not believe it. Look at their homes. Our priest live in crap. Evangelical leaders live in mansions. Our Priest must get approval for economy flights - unless parishioners pays it... Evangelicals fly their own private planes.

    Learn the difference. Even a brother - whom brother is an evangelical preacher - laughs at the donations he gets. We know him.

    It is a joke. The Evangelical religion is a joke.
    This has been an issue for a long time. TV evangelist bilking people out of money and saying very unchristian things at times. Some of these guys, like Baker , were just one step above a cult. Some like Billy Graham believed in what they were doing and lived a more or less middle class life. I think maybe ray Schuler was for real. But the "bam" you are healed crap " when faked on TV is all about the money.
    Some day one of these guys will go full blown cult, but with a hundred thousand followers. you can pretty much find a Biblical passage or quote to justify or encourage almost anything.

    I don't know if I would call them dangerous per se, but they can certainly be cloying, and sometimes, annoying. I am, what I like refer to as, an Agnostic with Atheist leanings, but I try very hard not to criticize anyone for there beliefs (how very Christian of me, eh?). I have been to quite a few churches and temples and found the Universalist Unitarians (and the Quakers) to be the most "cool" and accepting, I mean, I actually (kind of by mistake) took communion (I'm culturally Jewish)… so, if there is a hell, I am probably on the short list

    Presbyterians, for one, are very nearly not any religion at all. Congregationalists are likewise almost not Christian. Look what Rev Wright produces -- anti-white black militants and Obama.

    My church asked me " not to return " simply for calling the pastor a "$2 dik sukking hypocrite". In hindsight I should've used his scarce asset and my most plentiful asset (time) against him and went passive aggressive. A mental cat/mouse game. It would have been fun for me and a nice little hobby. On second thought...maybe its not to late. *snicker*

    What would make a leftist anti American? I think cons are neck high idiots but that doesn't make them anti-American necessarily. I am a very patriotic American but lately I tend to be a leftist.
    Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I digress....

    "All Christians are "evangelicals". Not true.

    Many leftists do not believe in the Constitution. They either outright discount it or they do they same thing by calling it a 'living constitution.'

    Those people are not Americans, in fact they are enemies of America.
