MSNBC

OK... I had to add one more post today after reading the latest rant by Chris Matthews on MSNBC regarding Alaska Gov Sarah Palin. Matthews is apparently troubled by the reference to God in Palin's recent interview regarding her plans for 2012. I am so tired of this guy. I thought he would go away after the recent election coverage. No such luck.

Here is an excerpt from that rant:
MATTHEWS: Okay let me ask Ron [Christie] a final question. Sarah Palin, tonight, in her interview with, with Greta Van Susteren last night, we're actually watching it tonight, on "Hardball," before you came on. She said she was waiting to get the okay from God. Now I have nothing wrong with prayer, I pray all the time. But to talk about that in secular environment. To talk about that in a country which is so broad in its different views of Jesus, in fact, is that a good political move? To talk about God and whether you should run getting the okay from him? Didn't we have enough of that in the last eight years? God leading our politics? Self-selected views of God?

So the questions are:

Is it wrong to talk about prayer in a secular environment? Isn't the government committed to freedom of religion rather than freedom from religion?

What are the different views of Jesus? I know of only one, HE is the Son of God, in the flesh whom was crucified for my sin.

Should she be ashamed of her faith because proclaiming it is not a "good political move"? When is being ashamed of professing your belief for self gain ever acceptable?

If Matthews "prays all the time", wouldn't he ask the Sovereign God if he should run for President, or take a job, or pray for the health of a loved one? For what (or whom) does he pray? Got to wonder.

What is a "self selected" view of God? Other than the selection mentioned in the Bible, what other selections are out there?

Now you know why I don't watch MSNBC. I like the Michael Savage reference to the network being MSLSD.
