Dr. George Wood's Reaction on Palin-God Cartoon

"The leader of the world’s largest Pentecostal denomination denounced a cartoon that mocks Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, Pentecostalism, and Christianity as 'despicable.'"

Dr. George O. Wood is the General Superintendent of the Assemblies of God here in the United States. The A/G has somewhere around 3 million church goers in the US alone.

There was another demeaning attack last week by the severely slanted left-wing media in the ever increasing liberal Washington Post against former Assembliesof God church attender, Gov. Sarah Palin.

You can read Dr. Wood's reaction in this article found on The Christian Post.

Gov. Sarah Palin & Religion

Here are some more interesting articles concerning the current Republican Vice Presidential candidate, Alaskan Gov. Sarah Palin.

If you remember from my first post (which seemed to stir up a good bit of interest), here's one article..., then here's some more.

1. Palin: Pray U.S. Plan in Iraq Is God's Plan
2. Palin Fires Up Conservatives
3. Pentecostalism Obscured in Palin Biography

Gov. Palin went up another rung on my ladder after according to this article, Oprah Winfrey refuses to have Gov. Palin on the Oprah show even after Sen. Obama was previously on the show. (There's something about Oprah that just gets under my skin!)

Meet Sen. McCain's Choice for VP, Gov. Sarah Palin

I have been less than thrilled with this year's presidential candidates, and quite honestly, not too enthused about any of them..., even back in the primaries. However, with Sen. John McCain picking Gov. Sarah Palin, my interest level has been extremely heightened.

I watched most of the Democratic National Convention just to keep my perspective open to all points of view (Anyone that knows me, knows that I am a political conservative which means I strongly disagree with most of the traditional liberal views of the Democratic party.). Needless to say, I was not impressed at all with the DNC nor with Sen. Obama's much anticipated acceptance extravaganza. It seemed to me to be the typical same old Democratic stump speech, emphasizing how horrible the Republicans are and then never giving any solutions, only bland generic ideologies.(***Side Note:Did you know that more people tuned into watch Sen. Barack Obama's acceptance speech than did to watch the open ceremonies of the Olympics or this season's finale of American Idol? Pretty amazing!***)

Now to what I wanted to say, I am highly intriguedby Gov. Sarah Palin, John McCain's Vice Presidential running mate. I found an article on the Christian Postabout Gov. Palin. Here are the highlights...

• Raised in a Pentecostal church
• Baptized as a teenager at Wasilla Assembly of God
• Led her high school chapter of Fellowship of Christian Athletes
• Former pastor said her and her family were very active in church
• Sometimes attends Juneau Christian Center (which is A/G)
• Her home church is Church on the Rock, and independent congregation
• Palin spokesperson said Palin attends various churches and does not consider herself a Pentecostal
• Opposes gay marriages
• Desires to see creationism discussed alongside of evolution in schools
• Husband is a member of United Steelworks Union and champion snowmobiler
• Mother of 5
• Her oldest son enlisted in Army in Sept. '07 and will be deployed to Iraq Sept. '08
• "as pro-life as any candidate can be"

• "Not only does Palin oppose abortion as a matter of policy, but she chose to give birth to her youngest child, a son, after a prenatal exam indicated Down syndrome. Studies show that about nine in 10 pregnant women who are given a Down syndrome diagnosis have chosen to have an abortion.
