[Bob Seger]

Yeah my thought in saying that about Carter was that in an interview during his campaign he had openly claimed to be a born again Christian. A mocking press ballyhooed that to the heavens, and that caused the Church to galvanize in support of Carter. But Carter was extremely gullible about a lot of things too. I remember how the press reported Carter saying how 'hurt' his feelings were when Brezhnev lied to him and it was discovered that Russia had violated the SALT II agreement. Russia lied? DUH That was when I knew Carter was naïve, and that was when he lost the support of the people. But honestly his support of abortion had slipped my mind. Carter was and is naïve, and especially after his presidency he's shown a strong liberal streak. I wouldn't want to be in his shoes I'll tell you that, but if on the slimmest of possibilities Carter is saved, he is an absolute babe in Christ.

Bob is right, and my generalization was wrong. Actually it did occur to me after I'd posted, that Reagan's example would have better demonstrated the point. I apologize for not doing a better job of commenting on such an important matter. And Bob, feel free to call me out the next time I uh-oh on something like that.

In the doctrinal sense-- It is far less a generalization to state categorically as Bob did, that people who support abortion and the homosexual lifestyle are surely not saved. I will agree with him completely on that.

TRT, I would never under any circumstance EVER call you out on anything. I have immense respect for you and your convictions. Lets just be honest, we are all still babes in Christ no matter how highly we may exalt our own deities . I think the scripture that I quoted pretty much confirms that "straight is the gate, and narrow the way."
