Whoa, whoa, stop! "Modern Christianity Out Of Step With Jesus' Teachings" was the headline of an article by columnist Leonard Pitts of the Miami Herald that ran on the editorial page of Highlands Today, Wednesday, April 30.

Jews were in slavery and persecuted until death for hundreds of years in history and today are still fighting for their rights in Israel. No, Mr. Pitts, you and pastors like the controversial Jeremiah Wright and James Lawson make up a good threesome of men who should be thankful to God for their very successful existence in America. Thank God for His blessings upon you. ...more
