I don't really follow their views R.R., as in my part of the world Falwell and Robertson get a lot more airtime than Jackson or Sharpton. I always assumed they were more popular in New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, etc.

On the other hand, I actually knew people who went to Liberty University.

In my honest view, I don't think any of the four particularly lead to a salvific theology, but I didn't want to get into that.
I smell something burning, hope it's just my brains.
They're only dropping peppermints and daisy-chains
   So stuff my nose with garlic
   Coat my eyes with butter
   Fill my ears with silver
   Stick my legs in plaster
   Tell me lies about Vietnam.

JS: "That is a bit of difference in our theological beliefs. If you shortened the second sentence to "The decision on his soul has been determined by God" then I'd agree. Of course I will take your advice and pray for comfort to those who miss anyone who has passed on recently."

So, for curiosity, how do we differ in this arena?

I don't believe in the notion of "once saved always saved" or sola fide.

Neither do I.

These people are obviously wackos. And the only person who knows whether Jerry Jalwell is in Heavne or Hell is God and Jerry himself.

Pikceting at funerals is tacky, real low class stuff. Shameful, absolutely shameful. Gosh, does anyone have any sense of decency anymore? (soapbox ends).
