McCain Is Not Baptized--That Will Have Them Shitting in the Pews!
Advertisements [?]Did you catch that last night on CNN right before the forum in a "run down" on McCain's religion by Dana Bash? McCain is NOT baptized. As a card carrying Christian let me tell you what that means: Remember Johnny's remark about being forgiven and saved? NO DEAL---you have to believe and be baptized! That's the rules. He even has that ****ed up! Now why would a person who truly believes and is that old still not be baptized---and a member of a Baptist Church to boot!! Point blank: Johnny is like Georgie, like Georgie's Daddy, like Ronnie the Dumb---they wouldn't know the inside of a church if they fell over it, so to speak. They go there for photo ops during campaign season (in fact Bash even talked about how he takes the press along to church). When are these Christian right-wingers going to pull their crosses out of their asses and figure out these guys play them and their social paranoia like a violin (and laugh at them behind their backs)!!! Let the word go out unto the land: HE AIN'T BAPTIZED!!!
That's it. I am staying home.

13. patrice--honest to God (excuse the pun)
I was watching and when she said that I about fell out of the chair. Trust me, I was raised by the pillars of the church and once engaged to a Luthern minister. This is the whole foundation of any Christian church. And, the "not baptized" was stated point blank by Dana Bash in a prepared run down she had leading into the forum (like two minutes before).

7. should he pull out now?
between this and his birth certificate in panama, the guy is looking iffy.
I think the mistake that happened for mccain last night is that any real christian could see that he had no unternal understanding of the bible or what it means to aspire to be christ-like. he said "defeat" evil, he has decided who is evil (only god can do that) and that they deserve to be punished, he is vengeful and holds a grudge and is dishonest. and now
he's not baptized.
buh bye my FRIEND

It appears to be true...

I sense this will be an Obama attack ad in after Labor Day. This is one they're probably keeping their powder dry on.
Oh, yes. That will go so well. "JOHN MCCAIN. He's not baptised! He was born in Panama!"

I'm supposed to care about this? Figures that those that don't believe in GOD try to tell those that do about what matters.

John McCain's Baptism

The Arizona senator, who was raised an Episcopalian, has attended North Phoenix for nearly two decades, but is not a member because he has not been baptized into the church.
On Wednesday, he told reporters that he had been baptized in Panama, where he was born, and talked about a photo in his memoirs of himself as a baby in a baptismal gown, with his father and grandfather.
"It's like a dress," he chuckled.
But he was more guarded about his current plans with regard to baptism, calling them "a private thing."
"I've been in discussions with Pastor Yeary, and we'll continue those discussions," he said. "It's a personal thing, it's a very personal thing concerning my faith and I am proud of my faith, I am proud of my belief and the sustenance and the redemption that I have received.
"And my faith was tested in extraordinary fashion and it was my faith that got me through not the next day, or the next hour but the next minute."

It is more of a swearing in ceremony (the best analogy I could find on short notice) -- and it is, indeed, very personal.

The fact that the DUmmies are in hysterics today shows who is upset that they are being played like a fiddle.
Obama had the gall to associate himself with a religious institution that doesn`t preach the social (marxist) gospel...oh the horror.
A little bit of reality for lurking DUmmies....your candidate will sell your pitiful behinds down the river any way and any time he can to get elected.
You all are nothing to him....absolutely nothing except for a campaign contribution.
I hope at some point McCain will call Obama out for his support on the island,let him show the primitives exactly what he thinks of them. :-)

HAHAHHAHAHAHAhahahah DUmmies talking religion again!!!!!! :rotf:

A lot of them probably get ooged out at the notion of a baptismal.
Hell, for a lot of them it was probably their last decent bath.

I would be amazed if the holy water wouldn't burn them down to their skeletons.

If I were a DUmmy - I wouldn't bark up that tree.
If it becomes an issue, and McCain does decide to be baptized, it will be all over the news. It will also help reaffirm his worth to so-called 'fundies' and give them more reason to support him. Just like they tried doing with his first wife. He threw that issue overboard during the forum.

I hope they jump on that horse and sink the spurs in deep. I can't imagine a bigger non-issue with the as-yet-uncommitted electorate, the bigger fools they make out of themselves on this the better.

These fools have had some wierd notion over the past 8 years that the "religious right" voted for Bush because they view him as being a Christian. As one who they would place in that category (I wouldn't place myself there, though I know many who would place themselves in that category), I can assure you that had nothing to do with why the "religious right" votes they way they do. But once they get the false notion in their tiny little heads, they can't let go, it just has to be the reason the religious right votes the way they do.

The DUchebags can only use their own thought templates for others so this is not surprising.
To a hammer the whole world is a nail.

You'd think the dummies would want to stay away from the issue of the birth circumstances of the candidates. I bet John McCain could produce a birth certificate if asked.

He's also more forthcoming with his SF-180 than was the previous democrat "Annointed One".
