Your evidence (people clapped in the scene on YouTube Wright got fired up) is sorta weak. They probably (I'm guessing) clapped whenever Wright got fired up about anything, because they liked it when he got fired up.

I think its safe to assume they were listening to the content of the sermon. And I feel justified in believing cheering and clapping amounts to agreement with and enthusiasm for the message.


You are changing the subject from "Obama says most of the things he got out of the sermons were typical church 'love thy neighbor' stuff", to this one 10 minute montage. Do you really think Obama sat and listened to this 10 minute montage repeated for 20 years?

Why do you believe this 10 minutes of negative footage is more representative of what went on in the church than what Obama says? That's my question for you.

If someone examined all of your writings on SI, couldn't they find 10 sentences where you appear to be a complete ass? Do those 10 sentences represent you? And even if they do, should someone who once wrote "I agree with Brumar" be associated with you negatively? That's totally ridiculous.

If you don't like Barack Obama, can't you find problems with him, himself, and not with someone he's known for awhile?

If the 10 minutes were typical, why hasn't another 10 hours of unpleasant crap from Wright surfaced? Can you answer that?
