4. Rick Warren is a baiter of hate hooks himself
Here is Mr Tolerance equating gay couples to all manner of horrors, and he does so for simple self promotion and promotion of his products.
RICK WARREN: But the issue to me is, I’m not opposed to that as much as I’m opposed to the redefinition of a 5,000-year definition of marriage. I’m opposed to having a brother and sister be together and call that marriage. I’m opposed to an older guy marrying a child and calling that a marriage. I’m opposed to one guy having multiple wives and calling that marriage.

STEVEN WALDMAN: Do you think, though, that they are equivalent to having gays getting married?

RICK WARREN: Oh I do. …


So he calls us every horrible thing in the book. We are like those who marry children or their own siblings.
Anyone who wishes to promote that man as a voice of reason is part of the Jones mindset because Warren is that himself. A slandering hate monger, pushing prejudice against others for his own benefit, and doing it in the name of God as if he had that right. Embrace him if you wish, just do not expect those he attacks to agree with you and he that he and Jones are not very similar creatures.
I just have to wonder what Warren's defenders here would say if I called them those things. Oh, they'd hit alert and freak out. If you would not want it said about you, do not promote those who say such things about others. The Golden Rule, that is called in some long forgotten faith.
