From Apprising Ministries: RICK WARREN DOUBLE-MINDED ON MARRIAGE?
This report comes to us from OneNewsNow.com, which is not in any way, shape, or form, an online discernment and apologetics ministry:
A Washington, DC, pastor and outspoken opponent of same-sex “marriage” says California mega-church pastor Rick Warren has done “tremendous damage” by apologizing for his support last fall of California’s marriage protection ammendment.
Warren told King on Monday that he “never once even gave an endorsement” during the Prop. 8 campaign. However, in late October — just weeks before the November 4 election — the pastor told his congregation: “Now let me say this really clearly: we support Proposition 8 — and if you believe what the Bible says about marriage, you need to support Proposition 8.” … (Online source)
Now below is the video that People Purpose Driven Pope Rick Warren tells us is not “an endorsement.” Well, to paraphrase another famous Southern Baptist I guess that depends on what the definition of is, is. Warren will very clearly say:
There are about two per cent of Americans are homosexual, or gay, lesbian people. We should not let two per cent of the population determine, to change, the definition of marriage that has been supported by every single culture, and every single religion for five thousand years… (1:24-1:43)
So I urge you to support Proposition 8, and pass that word on. I’m going to be sending out a note to pastors on what I believe about this, but everybody knows what I believe about it. (1:56-2:08)
Editor's note: Take a look at Warren's track record in the following articles. Isn't it obvious that Warren uses the Gay agenda to suit his personal agenda? America's Pastor or America's Politician?

If anyone is unclear about Rick Warren's religion, all you need do is read his purpose-driven agenda and it should become as clear as the Mediterranean sea. His flip-flopping on the gay agenda is far less heinous than his profiteering efforts to make the church more like the world. Yeah, the church need to be more "world-like" so that the unsaved can blend in and feel at home. When two people live together in sexual union for a certain number of years it becomes a common law marriage. So what if they want tax breaks and so fourth. But what Rick has done with his purpose-driven programs are to corporatize and secularize and already worldly ecumenical mass of churches into a membership driven reflection of contemporary culture. That is the point, let's not miss it.
