Thanks Panda. You know all Jesus was instructing his disciples to do here was to follow his lead and do as he did. All throughout his earthly ministry he was confronted by the liberals of his day, the Pharisees, and they were constantly trying to trip him up the same way liberals try to trip up conservatives, creating the same kind of straw men or asking him to explain the same kind on apparent contradictions or daring him to state his position so they could use it against him, and every time they walked away defeated, each time he flipped the script and exposed their hypocrisies, and he never had to lie to do it, he just had to be wise and choose his words carefully.

The tight Indiana Senate race has taken a controversial turn in the last twenty-four hours, as Republican hopeful Richard Mourdock deals with fallout from his remarks about abortion in last night’s debate. It’s the same concept that got Todd Akin in trouble: the candidate’s stance on abortion in the case of rape or incest. Pro-life Mourdock does not support an exception in either case, and his word choice in so stating has him in hot water with Democrats and even some fellows on the Right.

Unlike Akin, however, Mourdock didn’t make an offensive or outrageous claim based on junk...
