Regent University Hypocrites?

One of our readers, OHDave, posted a comment on one of our entries about Regent University inviting Rudy Giuliani to speak on April 17, 2007. What he found interesting about this invitation is that Pat Robertson was very criticial of Bill Clinton for his relationship with Monica Lewinsky and for allegedly lying about it at a deposition for a civil lawsuit. He pointed out in his comments that it is pretty well documented that Rudy was carrying on an affair with his third wife while he was married to his second wife.

We searched and, sure enough, OhDave was right, Regent University has invited Rudy to speak on April 17, 2007. If you click on the entry in this title, you can read the press release. At the bottom of the press release is a email address and a phone number for the media relations officer at Regent University. Maybe someone wants to join OhDave in finding out why the double standard with respect to Clinton and Giuliani.

After all, Clinton is still married to his wife, didn't get a divorce, and is close to his daughter. On the other hand, Giuliani is on his third wife, went through a messy separation from the mother of his two children, and, consequently, his relationship with his children is strained.

Could it be that some conservative Christians only care about morality when it promotes their political agenda?
