Rick Warren: Assassin for the Lord

Rick Warren appeared on the Fox News Show, Hannity and Colmes, to advocate the assassination of the President of Iran.  I'm not kidding.  

Replying to a rant advocated the killing of a foreign leader by right wing crackpot, Sean Hannity, Reverend Warren replied that it is the legitimate role of government to punish evildoers.   He said it was in the Bible.  Really?

I don't know what Bible you're reading, Rick, but in the Bible I read Jesus is known as the Prince of Peace.  In the Bible I read, there is NO passage that would advocate killing the leader of a foreign nation.  In the Bible I read, governments create LAWS which people follow.  Maybe if RW spent a bit more time reading his Bible and less time writing trite books about a pagan holiday (aka, Christmas) then he'd know this.

Since governments exist to punish evildoers, I wonder what the Reverend would propose as punishment for the Bush/Cheney Administration.  I can think of NO ONE who has perpetrated more evil on this earth these past eight years.
