re: #349 Obdicut

While I certainly don’t like the Saddleback Church or its pastor, he actually asked insightful and appropriate questions. Not bullshit about flag pins. This more shows what a terrible state the media is in than anything good about that church, though.

It’s not personally about Rick Warren or Saddleback. Allowing a preacher to summon two presidential candidates to be interviewed by him, in his church, as a major part of his campaign, struck me as being far beyong the line of propriety.

I wouldn’t have liked it if they’d done it at Glide Cathedral in San Francisco, or Temple Emanu-El in New York. Which they would not have done.
