I did not look very closely at the link before I posted it. I have replaced it with a link to a Wickopedia article on point. Readers can pick up Theodore Pappas' book Plagiarism and the Culture War: The Writings of Martin Luther King and other Prominant Americans. The point is not really the relative merits or demerits of MLK. Of course, he was a great American- but when did he become a hero to either theological or cultural conservatives?

Yet, I still would not vote for a mormon pagan regardless of his flowery speech, or Pat Buchanan's accolades. Indeed, an eloquent speech with much to agree with.

I hope it will be removed to avoid associating the name of Christ with such anti-Christian ideology.
