"In a World Net Daily piece called Rick Warren: ‘I always own up to my mistakes’ we’re told that, "Many false claims, [Warren] contended, have taken on a life of their own on Internet blogs, such as assertions he was mentored by positive-thinking pastor Robert Schuller."
Then Purpose Driven Pope Rick Warren says: "I’ve only met Robert Schuller twice, I believe. I’ve never had a one-on-one conversation with him. Not once. So how do I even know him?" The WND story goes on to inform us:
Warren said some criticism is simply baseless, charging many "don’t do their due diligence on research." The Robert Schuller "mentorship," for example, likely originated with a statement the Crystal Cathedral pastor made on CNN’s "Larry King Live"… The claim was furthered by author George Mair in a biography of Warren called "A Life with Purpose" then spread like wildfire among Internet blogs."

I sent an e-mail to WND editor Joseph Farah and the three part interview writer Art Moore pointing out several of "Pastor" Rick's defective statements, false assertions, and blatant lies.
I directed them to the Extreme Theology and Sliceoflaodicea blogs which have done the truth a service by researching and exposing Rick Warren's purpose driven deception.
Praise be to the Lord that I received a reply from Mr. Moore stating that there "will be follow up" to the 3-part interview series.
I deeply appreciate men like Joseph Farah and his crack team at WND who aren't afraid to call a spade a spade and who don't take kindly to Rick Warren's clumsy efforts to dupe them and their readership.
At first I thought it was a weak-kneed interview, but as I continued to read, I realized that Rick was comfortable in answering questions that, if asked "differently" he may not have devulged such lengthy answers. So, i'm glad to hear that a follow-up will...follow-up!
I've been enjoying Drew Kerr's articles at the biblicalthought.com blog. He has a new one about Warren's recent WalMart/Salvation Army advertisement. See:

Coram Deo, I'm with you on the worldnetdaily team, I especially liked their Murdoch/Warren piece!
