Inside the Beltway — God’s Politics 101
August 23rd, 2005

If you’re not worried about preserving Separation of Church and State, you should be. Thanks to The Statesmanship Institute, the Center for Christian Statesman and Rev. D. James Kennedy the evangelical message is delivered to congressional aides and aspiring young politicians with takeout dinner on a weekly basis.

Nearly every Monday for six months, as many as a dozen congressional aides — many of them aspiring politicians — have gathered over takeout dinners to mine the Bible for ancient wisdom on modern policy debates about tax rates, foreign aid, education, cloning and the Central American Free Trade Agreement.

Through seminars taught by conservative college professors and devout members of Congress, the students learn that serving country means first and always serving Christ.

They learn to view every vote as a religious duty, and to consider compromise a sin.

Founded two years ago, The Statesmanship Institute, offers in-depth training for a mere $345 (Tuition for SI is supplemented by private donations). They are just one of a half dozen evangelical leadership programs cozying up with aides and all takers (from either political party it seems) inside the Beltway.

3. The Gospels are Christ

They have played their hand and the TRUTH always wins.

The TRUE believers are seeing "The Chimp Emperor has no Clothes!"

Poor GWB, when he actually finds his way to HELL and let's not forget his murderess wife LAURA. Oh, and Daddy and the Babs, Greeting them!!

I hope this post might actually inspire them to read the Christian teachings. I won't hold my breath, because, I'm pretty sure they know where their going. You don't sell your soul, without an endorser.

Chan Chandler of the East Waynesville Baptist Church that was kicking out members who voted for Kerry?

He made huge news for a couple weeks, then faded off into the sunset >
