I'd like to invite you all to read Richard Rohr's reflections on Fahrenheit 9/11 and the re-election of George W. Bush. he states: "From the very beginning and throughout the Bible, God’s privileged one is consistently the enslaved instead of the supposed free, the outsider instead of the insider, the sinner instead of the righteous, the wounded instead of the healthy, the lay instead of the clergy, the poor instead of the rich. I dare you to try to disprove that. It is the “theme of themes,” so consistent and so demanding, that it has been ignored and avoided throughout most of Christian and Jewish history. We would rather be self designated liberals or conservatives than take the defenseless and vulnerable side of reality that Abraham, Moses, and Jesus took. It always looks naïve." I think he is correct. www.malespirituality.org/election.htmwww.cacradicalgrace.org/getconnected/movie_911.html
