It seems that the bigoted Right has again reared its ugly head. While the Right is denouncing the endorsement of Sen. Obama by Louis Farrakan it is saying nothing of Sen. McCains imbrace of John Hagee the founder of the Cornerstone Church and a noted Anti Catholic. It seems that the Republicans feel that it is ok to be a bigot as long as you are white.

Huge...difference. John Hagee, like most Christian theologians, have a difficulty with Catholic doctrine created not by the scriptures but 2000 years of tradition. It is a theological difference. Pastor Hagee has never called for the destruction of the United States or supported verbally the actions of terrorists as Farrakan has done. And it has nothing to do with race. A large portion of Pastor Hagee's congregation is black, as well as every other race and ethnic background. God says there is no distinction between each of us in the human race as we all need the grace of God found in Jesus.

I beg to differ, anyone that calls the Church the anti-christ and accuses it of collaborating with Hitler in the death of the Jewish people during WWII has more than a theological difference in dealing with the Catholic Church.

Actually, besides being in the ministry...and in Law Enforcement (what a combination), my wife is Jewish. She lost 60% of her family tree in the holocaust. The Catholic Church (the Pope) as now publically appologized for any action..or lack of action during WW2. At the same time Hagee and other theologians need to read the "encycnical Mit Brennerdes Sorge", where Pope Pius XI condemmed Naziism in 1937. The Vatican was surrounded by a country allied with Germany. They were very limited in what they could do. I have though never understood the Catholic Church love of petty dictators...Franco, Castro and others...mearly because they were anti-communist. I guess the "enemy of my enemy is my friend." They chose what they thought was the less of two evils.
