That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I have friends, well let us say fellow travelers. My companions and myself totally disagree with each other on all things political. I evidently have what has been called a view of Christianity as a social gospel (taking care of each other, helping the poor, providing for the general welfare), that kind of Gospel.

It is not only a right, but a duty as believers to attend to these needs.

I am not one of those evangelicals that pretend that money is good, prejudiced view are tolerated and that there are only two things a Christian should be against. I'm not talking about war and salvation. I refer to pro-life and the supposed gay agenda.
Since when are Christians so concerned with death, hundreds of thousands of Christians, Muslims and Jews died in the prior struggles for the land of Canaan.

Pro-choice supporters are actually in favor of preserving life, they just believe that a woman has the right to choose. As a Christian, I choose life. As an American, I choose choice.

Religious Conservatives fawn all over every patriotic thing. Flags on the lapel, military songs in church, pledging to the flag and degrading those that are not so enthusiastic.
True nationalism is really what they want us to. This is more akin to the national socialist movement in Germany in the 1930's. Country, right or wrong. Even when the actions of the country are contrary to God's laws.
We have an obligation to our descendants to preserve both religious and personal freedom. Freedom cannot be attained by climbing under a rock, it must be shown through our actions not our rhetoric.

Christian founding of our nation has included slavery (justified by the Word), burning innocent women, (justified by the Word), outlawing Christmas (justified by the Word) and racism (justified by the Word). None of these would our Savior be proud.

Would Jesus listen to Rush, Bill and Sean? For that matter anyone at Fox News. Don't even get me started on Sister Sarah, proclaiming Christ, then speaking at a convention of alcohol manufacturers. Please! And the world wonders why even we consider us to be hypocrites.
