playing 'catch-up' then saw the RIP -PM-
I knew he had died -but went to the post anyway--
and will go back as I saw a ref; to David Barton being a liar--Hmmmmm
as to Peter Marshall's critic-must say-having been to MacArthur's church and been a close acquaintance to some of his followers-I cannot say that I trust him - at all...
That said-thank you - again - for your wonderful posts- and for standing for LIFE--

I will always stand for life.
If you are referring to the post over at American Creation on Peter Marshall's passing, I didn't write that post. One of the other AC bloggers did. I haven't read anything by Marshall, nor have I ever debated anyone who was affiliated with him. I don't believe that I've ever even written a post about Marshall.
My only comment about John MacArthur regards his views of Catholicism, which are remarkably ignorant for someone who claims to be a theologian and Bible scholar. I don't know much about anything else he teaches -- once I ran across his views of the Catholic Church, I pretty much tuned him out regarding everything else.
Thanks for the comment -- and thank you for all that you are doing in the cause of Life!
I knew you had not written the posts at AC--

Ok -- I just wanted to clarify in case there was any confusion.
Cheers!
