Mass resignations at CBN in wake of Rudy endorsement?
November 9th, 2007 at 8:55 pm . by NukeNope. Not a single one.
Not even one single article criticizing Robertson’s move.
Just this small disclaimer at CBN’s website.
Pat Robertson as a private citizen has recently endorsed a candidate for public office. As a private citizen he has the right to participate in the political process, and is entitled to express his personal views. CBN, as a public charity, does not support or oppose any candidate for public office, and as a result will not address or comment further on this matter.
Well, I’m glad they cleared that up.
CBN’s Lee Webb recently wrote, “I criticized [Mike] Huckabee, when he was governor of Arkansas, for refusing to sign a bill that described natural disasters like tornadoes and floods as “acts of God.” He said signing the legislation would have violated his conscience.” Webb said his criticism was justified, “especially when it involves an issue as fundamental to orthodox Christianity as God’s sovereignty.”
Webb is entitled to his opinion, but his premise is flawed. I happen to disagree that the Governor’s refusal to violate his own conscience in carrying out the duties of his office is somehow an affront to the sovereignty of The Almighty.
But, I am wondering about the Rudy endorsement, and CBN’s disclaimer that they “will not address or comment further on this matter,” and I wonder if Lee Webb and the rest of the staff at CBN are going to stand up for God’s sovereignty in the matter of killing unborn children, or if instead, Webb can come up with another theological argument that will allow him to keep both a straight face as well as his job without violating his own conscience.
Prove all things.
