I am not an habitue of this thread so I can't speak definitively, but I don't think that there are a lot of fans of Olasky--simply that people are willing to cut him some slack and see what he is about in practical terms.

As for the quotation you provide, what a pity he reads the Bible in this way. I do not remember there being any shame attached to Deborah's leadership. I shall have to do a bit of rereading, I can see!

Nice of him to acknowledge that it might be God's will that women assume leadership positions, LOL!

At least, he is honest in his biases. I can deal with honest bias more readily than I can with the politicians who throw PC cant around--and I am speaking of no specific politician, just the tendency to say whatever will get one elected regardless of personal beliefs and intentions.

Seems you've got some kind of obsession with Olasky. And calling him Bush's ethics advisor is cute.

Seems a better fellow than Gore's ethics advisor, Larry Flynt, doesn't he?

I should say that is remarkably liberal for a literalist, and demonstrates why one should not attach too much importance to a belief in inerrancy. There are always other influences, and the Bible itself is mixed, as in the reference to Deborah......
