Purpose driven AIDS plan

HIV/AIDS | Pastor Rick Warren stirs passions—and politics—at church AIDS summit | Lynn Vincent

ORANGE COUNTY, Calif.— When Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) appeared at this month's 2006 Global Summit on AIDS and the Church, at Saddleback Church in Orange County, Calif., some fellow evangelicals warned of dark fallout: Saddleback Pastor Rick "The Purpose Driven Life" Warren was pandering to the secular elite—and was giving quarter to a pro-abortion enemy.
