Re: Warren and Obama

K-Lo, your e-mailer says it’s “inappropriate” for Rick Warren to invite Barack Obama to speak from his pulpit, since it is a “holy place.” Warren built that church practically by himself. It’s his pulpit. And it is for him and his congregants to decide what is or is not appropriate conduct on that pulpit. Besides which, do evangelical Protestants believe a pulpit is “holy”?  Isn’t that more of a Catholic view? (Please don’t send me 500 e-mails on this  topic, as I have a column to write. Just discuss amongst yourselves.)
