I had my occasional objections. He insisted that SUVs should be referred to as cars. But they aren't. Technically they were trucks. They were created when Clinton put a mileage quota on cars. And his calling feminists "feminazis" was extreme, other than their delight in murdering infants. I could go on. This is the only post I have made so far about him, and probably won't bother making another post.
As far as being in heaven or hell, to the best of my knowledge he has never made a profession of being born again. But then again, I gave up following him decades ago like Sparko. Maybe somebody can correct me on that.When I Survey....

I would up listening to Rush only 7 minutes to about 20 minutes after the hour. The rest was a waste of time. Then I eventually gave up on that.

In regard to the other, his niece -- his brother David's daughter -- works for Fox News, and is a good friend and fellow Bible study member with Fox and Friends host Ainsley Earhart. Ainsley asked her if there was anything she wanted people to remember about Rush, and she relayed that one of the main things was his faith in Jesus, even though he didn't like to proselytize or otherwise talk much about it publicly.
Then there's this from back in October, as well as similar things he's said a few times since then.Geislerminian Antinomian Kenotic Charispneumaticostal Gender Mutualist-Egalitarian.

Cal Thomas has very conservative views but is a gentleman. When Thomas dies, no one will dredge up embarrassing Cal Thomas quotes.
