Thread Name: BS: Let me tell you about Andy
Subject: RE: BS: Let me tell you about Andy
Generally, I refrain from threads such as this. I am not "knocking" them; I just don't get involved with them.

It is not my desire to sound "preachy", but I must say this. I am what many call a "born-again" Christian. As such, my first allegiance is to Jesus Christ. My whole experience with Him has nothing to do with "religion", nor with politics. It has to do with my private relationship with Him. Being a Christian does not mean I am Republican, nor does it mean I am Democrat. Nor does it mean that I support or protest the war.

Years ago, Mississippi had a US Representative that was caught up in a scandal of pedophilia. He was our elected representative. But those whom he was to represent were not pedophiles. He represented only himself.

Such it is with many of the "Representatives of Christ". They are actually only representing themselves under the cover of His Name.

Please, don't confuse the Jerry Falwells and Pat Robertsons and the "Political Christians" with Christianity. They are two different things entirely.

Andy choices have little to do with the Simplicity found in Christ; "Love one another, even as I have loved you." Simple, yet earth-shaking in its application.
