"We must be very careful taking our lead from men. Remember how Tolkien talked of men in “Lord of the Rings?” Like Saurumon the traitor, we have modern-day tragic characters shouting from the tops of dark towers. How did Rush Limbaugh, Jerry Falwell, Trent Lott, Ann Coulter, George Bush, William Bennett and countless others who have been shown failing to do What Jesus Would Do (WJWD) earn the right to tell folks what to do, what is right, and how to live? If they were truly moral pillars, perhaps we lesser folk ought to be humble and take them seriously. However, it is insulting to the good everywhere when we are condescended to and misled by folks who ought to just get their own house in order and exercise a little more modesty."
