Conservative Christian Evangelicals take friendly fire from Ken Connor


Sounds like a guy with some sense, but we shall reserve judgement.

This could be a trap, given what these people are capable of, in the name of JeeeZus.

Conservative Christian Evangelicals take friendly fire from Ken Connor:

In a series of columns in Ideas in Action, Connor, the former head of the Family Research Council, lambastes Tom DeLay, GOP opportunism and the Christian Coalition, and suggests engaging in civil debate with an emerging 'Christian left'

In early April, Ken Connor expressed his dismay that the scandal-ridden former Congressman Tom DeLay had been rapturously received by the crowd at the late-March 'War on Christians and the Values Voters in 2006' conference. In a column, he observed that 'the willingness of far too many Christian conservatives to cast a deaf ear and a blind eye' to DeLay's misdeeds was extremely disheartening.

In another column, Connor criticized the Christian Coalition of Alabama for its 'series of scathing attack ads' that were an 'inaccurate and unfair attack on trial lawyers.' And in another, he suggested that liberal religious leaders shouldn't be dismissed out of hand, and should be engaged in a sincere and civil debate. In yet another column, he maintained that it would be mistaken if 'some conservatives ...dismiss Al Gore's arguments [about Global warming] simply because he is Al Gore.'
