Speaking of the Pharisees........this describes our WH bunch to a T.

Edited on Sun Dec-14-03 12:47 AM by madfloridian

Dean compared certain Republican leaders to the Pharisees...hypocrites.

Here is a website that describes this bunch in the WH so clearly.
http://www.gospelcom.net/rbc/ds/q0206/page5.html

The site links to these topics, and I love the one about practicing Coverup rather than Disclosure. Also think of what they doing to our education systems, and think of our library and museum funding that is being cut. They are "taking away the Key of Knowledge."

"In Luke 11, Jesus confronted the Pharisees with several deficiencies of their religion. Let's see what their faults tell us not only about the Pharisees but also about ourselves."

They Settled For Looking Good
They Made Much Of Little
They Loved The Approval Of Others
They Practiced Coverup Rather Than Disclosure
They Added To Life's Burdens
They Deceived Themselves
They Took Away The Key Of Knowledge
They Made Converts To Hell

2. This is Scripture, and I love it.

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and the darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the Spirit (wind) of God was moving over the waters. And God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light. And God saw that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness. God called the light Day, and the Darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, one day.

The human spirit doesn't get much better than that!
