A General Problem

Last week the LA Times broke the story that U.S. Lt. Gen. William Boykin has made remarks around the country comparing Islam to “Satan” and declaring the U.S. a “Christian nation.” On Wednesday, the President distanced himself from the General’s views. That was a good step. But criticis say the Defense Department needs to remove the General from his post. Jim Wallis, editor of Sojourners Magazine, wants more from the General. Wallis wants Boykin to understand how bad his theology is. Read Wallis' letter.
