Amen
Invocation and Benediction: Call and Response?
(Rick) Warren called, and Lowery answered.
And Lowery’s response was not an AMEN...
Joseph Lowery didn’t offer Rick Warren an AMEN; he repudiated the hatred that Rick Warren stands for. Lowery stood up for justice, and for peace, and for solidarity.
And the crowd shouted AMEN! AMEN! AMEN!...
There's a beautiful video, transcript and more commentary through the link. Just...yes. Yes.
ETA: Also, Gene Robinson's awesome speech can be found here.
