Rev. Wright Is A Scholar?

Victor Davis Hanson:

One of the defenses of the Rev. Wright advanced by Sen. Obama was that his (suddenly “former”) pastor is a biblical “scholar”. But one surely doesn’t sense anything scholarly about the firebrand Wright from his public lectures. He uses the notorious “N-word”. He enjoys profanity. “Ain’t” is common parlance. And in the tape when he screams about Bill Clinton “ridin’ dirty” with Monica, Wright then seems to illustrate that by shuddering with his body and right arm in a crude effort to simulate sexual intercourse from the pulpit.

He calls Justice Thomas “Clarence Colon”: and Sec. Rice as “Condamnesia.” Add that to his “God Damn America”, his attacks on “the KKK of America”, and his crackpot notions about AIDs, the idea that cabbies (a vast majority of them of color) who pass by black males reflect white racism, etc. and Wright appears about as unscholarly as one can get.

Read the whole thing.

The crude manner of speech and poor grammar does not in any way say Wright is not a biblical scholar (A learned person that specializes in one area of knowledge). I understand and appreciate Hanson’s point, but I must disagree.


In keeping silent about evil, in burying it deep within us, so that it appears nowhere on the surface, we are implanting it, and it will rise up a thousandfold in the future.

Yes. He is a scholar of racist hate and anti-American propaganda. Quite a refined one, at that.

Not much different than many teaching in academia today.  He is just plain wrong.  On that, I agree he may be a scholar.

“Condamnesia” Rice

I think the greater question is not whether he might be a scholar, but whether or not he might be a “Christian”?

Who knows the heart of a man? If he preaches Christ died, buried and resurrected, if he finds the time between political speeches, leave that part up to God.

I do not judge his heart, but anyone who would damn someone for their difference in political beliefs is hardly what I would call a Christian minister!

Why do you bring Gene into this?

That kind of stuff is distasteful and Barrack knew about this stuff long before he cut ties with him.

I apologize, I was not suggesting you had or would, it was a general statement.

Why do you bring Gene into this?

You unfairly brought Gene into this thread and I have never read wherein Gene has ever damned anyone to hell, so you are being dishonest by your implications.
