Gerald Ford's testimony

Gerald Ford's testimony: "Gerald R. Ford on May 28, 1977, four months after leaving the presidency, gave the commencement address to his son and 180 other Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary graduates. Here are excerpts:

Today I speak not as an office-holder but as a father and private citizen. From this perspective it's easy enough to see how fleeting things of the world are which we consider important. A man can hold high office, command great powers, and be hailed as the leader of the world, but when his time in office is over he must be prepared mentally, emotionally, spiritually, to relinquish the power, the prestige, and the public acclaim that came with the office. He must retain the quiet confidence that he has been the same man all along and that whatever he contributed as president he can still contribute in other ways.

This is not an easy transition to make, but with the help of one's family and one's friends and with the conviction that God works his own purposes in each of our own lives, it is easier to see that leaving the White House is not the end of the world but simply the beginning of a new chapter in one's life...."

Tom Cruise...Christianologist? : Soul Fuel for Students - Dare 2 Share Ministries, International

Tom Cruise...Christianologist? : Soul Fuel for Students - Dare 2 Share Ministries, International: " 'It's like, you could be a Christian and be a Scientologist, okay.'

I say:

'It's like, no you can't be a Christian and be a Scientologist...not okay, okay?'

Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom - you should probably stick to what you do best - acting and doing couch jumping/psychiatry assaulting interviews that make people go... 'huh?'

But definitely avoid the subject of Christianity, because by that statement alone you assume something that simply cannot be. To say that you can be a Christian and a Scientologist is like saying you can be a dead/alive person, or that you can be a tall/short person. Christian-Scientologist is the ultimate in oximorons. In fact, Christian-anything else is in the same category.

* You can't be a Christian-Buddhist.
* You can't be a Christian-Hindu.
* You can't be a Christian-Muslim.

Oh, you can say that you are, but saying it doesn't make it any more true than if I said I could swim to Hawaii . The words came out of my mouth, but the facts don't back them up.

And they don't in this case either. So let's take a look at the facts, so you won't ever be caught in the lie that apparently has gripped the Cruiser."
