He's stumbling a little more. I think it threw him off balance.

3. Of course it did, because Democrats aren't supposed
to know scripture let alone quote it.

9. "Faith without works is dead."
Edited on Wed Oct-13-04 08:39 PM by elperromagico
That was the tail end of it. I don't remember the first part. Kerry's used it before.

Edit: It's taken from James 2:14-26:

"What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds ? Can such faith save him? <...> faith without deeds is dead."

7. Kerry is a Paulist like myself
And that is a dynamite quote we use all the time. Gov. Granholm used that about six months ago and some zealot in Michigan said she was "using" religion. Sheesh what nut bags

10. Well he would actually be a "Jamesist" not a "Paulst"
It was James who said faith without works is dead and paul who said we are justified by faith alone.
