Obama doesn't know what he's in for. Liberal ship without a Tiller. Daddy issues. Plus more.

STRENGTH IN NUMBERS
Re: Mark Tooley's Here Come the Churches:

Thanks for giving the Presbyterian Church (USA) 2.9 million members. I wish it were so! But the official documents of the church list our membership at somewhere between 2.2 and 2.3 million members.

We are declining at the rate of approximately one 115-member church a day.

Great piece. Unfortunately, you give my beloved Presbyterian Church (USA) too much credit. At last count (2007), our membership was no where near 2.9 million, but 2,209,546. Certainly even lower than that figure today.

"...other wild things are devour all others." Please note correction:

...other wild things will devour all others.

Thank you.

PS Good to see Messers Dooley and Santore's post. Where have you gone, Ms. Gunn?

Mr. Dooley, there is no proscription on judging "other men's souls", only an admonition, "judge not, lest ye be judged" by the same standard, that is. Judgement is for God. Tiller's killer passed earthly judgement, he also will be judged. For someone to SAY Tiller was evil due to his unapologetic slaughter of babies, is not "judgement", it is observation. It is calling a spade a spade. It is knowing him; "by their fruits ye shall know them".
