If a lurker may make a comment:
The scriptural proscription against divorice and remarriage could not be
clearer, yet Bob Dole is warmly embraced as a presidential candidate by
members of the Republican Party who are evangelical Christians. If we are
to take the scriptural passages dealing with the above points as clear and
literal, then I do not understand why there has been no condemnation of Mr.
Dole as an adulterer from the evangelical community. (or Speaker Gingrich,
or Senator Gramm for that matter). There seems to be a certain selectivity
in what we consider clear and unambiguous. On the other hand, I'm asking
for consistency, and goodness knows I'm not consistent in my own views
either. 8-).
