Glad you enjoy those quotes but you do realize that Will Rogers was a political humorist, comedian, actor much like John Stewart and he died in
1935. Adrian Rogers, on the other hand, is a pastor, conservative that spent several terms as the President of the Southern Baptist Convention who was born in 1931.

For me Will Rogers represents all that is good about political humorists and Adrian Rogers represents all that is wrong with religion mixing with politics.
