the hallelujah trail .....
It’s never easy to be a Christian, but lately it’s been tough for the wrong reasons. Confessing Jesus Christ as the Son of God has earned folks censure, exile, dispossession, torture, and death in most times and places. Whether it’s the ancient Roman Empire or modern North Korea, over 70 million Christians have been murdered for their faith since 33 AD. Martyrdom is hard, but that isn’t what makes "evangelical" American Christianity difficult. Rather, it’s the hypocritical ravings of Pat Robertson and his ilk. After blaming 9/11 on the Lord instead of American foreign policy and calling for the murder of Venezuelan thug Hugo Chavez, Robertson has outdone himself by endorsing Rudy Giuliani for the US presidency. The anti-abortion, pro-family televangelist pretends to believe that a pro-abortionist who changes wives as often as he does political positions will "keep America safe" – or at least that portion of it already born.
