Alright!
Read on if your LDS.
Not only is Reid taking the country down the wrong path but he is criticizing past church leaders along the way. In 2007 Reid gave a speech at BYU. I wasn't there but I hear it was pretty good.After the fireside Reid held a press conference. In it he said this:
In the past years we’ve had some very prominent members of the church, like Ezra Taft Benson, who are really right-wing people. Members of the church are obedient and followers in the true sense of the word, but these people have taken members of the church down the path that is the wrong path.Understandably, being a party’s standard bearer can be a tough role to play, but right after speaking about King Benjamin’s example and service to God, Senator Reid took some rather uncharitable digs at President Bush:
“They have focused on just a few issues, flag-burning, gay marriage, abortion,” Reid said. “The country has gone beyond that to other issues. We have a country that needs to do something about health care. Global warming is here. We have a president who doesn’t know how to pronounce the words.”and at evangelicals:
Reid also told reporters the Republican Party has been driven by evangelical Christians for 20 years. “They are the most anti-Christian people I can imagine, the people from the Christian far right.”
For these statements Reid is heading down the wrong path and is taking the country with him.
