10. Except you could never wear your mink stole to a Pentecostal church...
Or your hooker make-up... or short skirts... or pantsuits... or acrylic nails... you know, all the tel-evangelical standards of dress;)

Pretty much the same doctrine, though. Just different dogma:)

6. No
It's an Evangelical offshoot of Pentecostal... all the fervor and none of the dress/make-up code.

I was raised in an Assembly of God... it's ok... I am recovering:)

2. I wonder if buzz about her extreme religion is a ploy to make Romney's religion
palatable to the RW.

7. This shit is scary stuff
Her Assembly of God pastor questioned the salvation of those who voted for John Kerry, and also asserted that Jesus "operated from a position of war mode."

9. Given that Sarah is a big believer...

Why does her baby still have Down Syndrome? Why not faith heal it?

14. This is the same denomination that John Ashcroft
belongs to. This denomination practically rules Springfield MO, where they are headquartered.

17. Her church is the ONLY reason McCain tapped her for VP.
She won't bring in a state. She won't bring in disaffected Hillary voters. But she could bring in those wavering fundies who don't trust McCain.

It was a desperation pick, and it's blowing up in his face.
