Just further reinforces my realization that our country is losing it's moral compass. Whatever you think or believe, it makes me very sad. Sorry if this offends anyone.

David, you make a very good point, but I think you may be missing ours.
We aren't dissing God, but small-minded men's ideas on God and their attempts to spread a flawed and simplistic view of God. In my eyes and study, man has created a very fragile god, subject to our whims, and not the all powerful god they describe in the next breath.
Take Falwell the other night. He was talking about tithing. Here's what he said, direct quote, which was also a subtitle: "Tithing clears the way for God to bless the tither."
What do you think is wrong with that statement? This is the brand of god that, as they say, "makes the Baby Jesus cry."
