		<description>Warren&#039;s previous moves to the center fooled Gushee, but I was always skeptical. He began showing his true colors earlier this year.</description>

		<description>Yea,&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I&#039;m in the slow process of making the switch to Word Press.  I have a web host.  I have a Wordpress blog theme that I bought.  But I had some problems transferring my Domain from Yahoo to Blue Host.  Yahoo is taking their time.  So, hopefully in 72 hours or less, www.thebigdaddyweave.com will take you to a new blog that I&#039;ve yet to setup.  I also don&#039;t have a clue what I&#039;m doing - so who knows!</description>

		<description>So,are you Baptist? Catholic? Or just plain ole Confused?  I&#039;d say its telling that you chose to make Baptist the adjective that describes Catholic.  &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I probably need to make one correction.  I&#039;m not a theology student.  &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;My arguments are weak?  Tell that to Douglas Kmeic.  Unoriginal?  Perhaps.  No need to offer an original argument when a better one already had been made.</description>

		<description>My reading of the transcript says Warren endorsed &quot;taking out&quot; the guy, not assassinating him. You all may not like that option any better than the other, but it doesn&#039;t seem accurate to me to say that he endorsed assassination.</description>

		<description>Speaking of Church History, was this early Church Father a cultural warrior?&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Augustine of Hippo (354-430):&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&quot;Sometimes, indeed, this lustful cruelty, or if you please, cruel lust, resorts to such extravagant methods as to use poisonous drugs to secure barrenness; or else, if unsuccessful in this, to destroy the conceived seed by some means previous to birth, preferring that its offspring should rather perish than receive vitality; or if it was advancing to life within the womb, should be slain before it was born.&quot;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;-De Nube et Concupiscentia 1.17 (15)&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;BDW, you must not assume that because I spend my days writing symphonies, I don&#039;t know Church History. As a Bapto-Catholic composer, I must read it.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;In the same way, nobody should assume that a theology student is sleeping during his classes because his arguments are weak.</description>

		<description>Ironically, the terms Carlos has employed here - &quot;right-wing&quot; &quot;left-wing&quot; and &quot;fundamentalist&quot; - are quite problematic.  Fortunately, Gushee has on numerous occasions defined the terms that he often employs such as &quot;evangelical centrist&quot; and &quot;emerging evangelical center.&quot;  I have on more than a few occasions written about these terms and ideas.  These terms have well-developed definitions.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;When I employ the term &quot;fundamentalist&quot; and direct it towards individuals from Protestant denominations, I have rooted the term in its appropriate historical context.  Carlos might need to brush up on his church history and the history behind the term fundamentalist.  Phrases such as &quot;Left-Wing Fundamentalist&quot; are made-up terms.  They have no historical context and often (as in this case) the user  fails to define the term.  From a historical point of view, a &quot;Left-Winger&quot; can&#039;t be a fundamentalist.  A &quot;Left-Wing Fundamentalist&quot; is a fine example of an oxymoron.  &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Now, should we give Carlos the Culture Warrior a cookie for affirming women?  WOW.</description>

		<description>Sounds to me like the guy is a nutcase, and should be given little credibility.  Since when do we start taking out opposing leaders simply because we don&#039;t like them?    Oh, I forgot, we did that already.  Actually, WE didn&#039;t. The current president did.  Armi-whoever is an extremist, but, to date, he has done little more than talk and shoot off a few rockets.  This country has got to quit thinking &quot;shoot first and ask questions later&quot; now that the miserable Bush years are coming to a close.  Can you imagine the extremist Muslim response to such an assassination?  Our credibility in the Middle East would go further into the tank.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s easy for anybody to say &quot;I am a centrist.&quot;&lt;br/&gt;You just find someone more to the right or to the left on certain positions.&lt;br/&gt;For example, someone may think he is a centrist because he believes in reducing the number of abortions.&lt;br/&gt;Reminds me of the right-winger who thinks he is compassionate because he leaves the trash can open at night...&lt;br/&gt;The interesting about right-wing and left-wing fundamentalists is that they don&#039;t see themselves as extremists.&lt;br/&gt;I am pro-life (as in I oppose Roe v. Wade); and I affirm women in the ministry. &lt;br/&gt;Gee, I must be a centrist!</description>
