New pastor at Trinity Church just as ludicrious as Wright

Jeremiah Wright, Barack Obama's former pastor (and even that's still debatable), is being replaced at the Trinity Church, but the new one, Otis Moss, is just as disturbing:
Barack Obama has finally distanced himself from Rev. Jeremiah Wright after a 20-year relationship, but the pastor who is replacing Wright at Chicago’s Trinity United Church of Christ is likely to be just as controversial.

New Trinity pastor Otis Moss has called Biblical patriarch Abraham a “pimp” and made other statements many would consider offensive.

After Obama called Wright’s comments “divisive and destructive,” a questioner noted that Rev. Moss has defended Wright and asked if Obama would continue attending the church.

“Well, the new pastor, the young pastor, Reverend Otis Moss, is a wonderful young pastor,” Obama responded. “And as I said, I still very much value the Trinity community.”

[...]

In an interview last month with National Public Radio, Moss refused to distance himself from claims by Wright that the U.S. government was involved in distributing illegal drugs to minorities.

[...]

Moss has also referred to blacks as “lepers” with a “skin disease.”
African Americans should pay careful attention to Moss's bizarre double-standard there: on the one hand, it would seem as though he's accusing whites of being unfair to blacks, but on the other hand, it sounds like he's turning against even the community he claims to speak for. This is truly disgusting, and noone with common sense should have to attend the Trinity Church. Let them be empty of visitors.

And Obama certainly isn't doing much good by failing to condemn Moss for the damage he's doing.
