Wahhh religious pastor believes things commonly believed by religious pastors.

Liberals who take the first opportunity to throw punches aren't liberals at all.

Plus, crying over nothing. Waaaaaaah

puhl leeeze – gripe and whine – whine and gripe – the scary people are those like miss daphne here who think everyone who disagrees with them should be gagged – note to ms. eviatar ; you are the hateful intolerant one – p.s. there are MANY reasons why those who love gays can still oppose gay “marriage” – this is a fact which no doubt you would like to deny, but a fact none the less – get over it already and stop misquoting people just because someone else did – you basically are bigotted and incompetent as a journalist OR else you are a bigotted, dishonest journalist – one or the other – that's for sure

A presidential candidate who sincerely advocates engagement with one's “enemies,” competitors, and distractors is walking the walk. Those who want to gripe about it simply lose their own credibility in my eyes.

Look, if you folks want to field a candidate to run for the presidency that will do what you all think is right. Go for it!!

I love to read blogs and reporters that have not done their homework. To take and make comments off of an article written is wrong because it only is skin deep. How many that write know who Rick Warren is? By many comments written it is easy to see many really don't know his views, but are writing views bases on reporters views. Go to his church web site and see his views and be resposible to write a blog that has meaning. When you have done your search for the truth, then come online and write what you have investigated and know. Put the arm chair quarterbacks in their place when you see how far off the mark their comments are. His church site is; http://www.saddleback.com/index.html. Rick Warren is not against gay people, he simply quotes the Bible. God created man & woman, designed for each other. The design was not made for man & man or woman & woman. God loves a gay person and should be treated with love ALWAYS. Rick is not against gay people. If he were do you think he would be such a big supporter of helping people with aids around the world? If you look aids hits the gay population very hard, so by working against aids is actually helping many gay people. Do the research. Be the educated person writing a blog. Be the one to expose the truth, not the emotions off an article. Lastly, be the voice of reason in a world that has lost it's focus in many areas.

Bush was the most divisive president we have ever had and systematically turned America into an 'us and them' society. You saw this so clearly in the contentions and bitter election campaigns. It was scary to see how much hate and ignorance was seething just below the surface. It is time for Americans to unify, regardless of how difficult it is. While including Warren prominently at the inauguration is controversial and no one is calling it acceptable, it is true that it is opening an important dialogue that is long overdue. I think Obama is showing us that we can't make the same choices if we are going to truly change America, and it won't be easy. I'm with him 100% of the way.

You know what? I think Warren's views on gay marriage and abortion are wrong. I also think they reflect the views of millions of Americans, many of whom have probably fought and died for this country. To eliminate them from social and political discourse because of their views on these issues would be very undemocratic indeed. I would go so far as to say it would be un-American. It would be the kind of thing you'd expect an ayatollah someplace to do. Or a jihadist. What's the next step? You want to line everyone you disagree with up and shoot them?

Maybe we should wait and see just what Mr. Warren has to say in his inaugural invocation before we all start deciding it was such a bad choice. Maybe… just maybe… there will be some surprises!
