I guess New England Christians should be left in the dustbin, eh? We don’t even deserve to have a chance to have a professing Christian like that come here.
I just love encouraging words that Bible Belters like you give us. Makes me wonder just what kind of a Christian you must be, all smug in your self assuredness.
There but for the grace of God go I.

Eh. Don’t let it get you down. I am from Massachusetts, and know this place for what it is, and don’t really blame folks for feeling the way they do.

There are conservatives, real ones up here, and Christians. The political system is deeply entrenched.

That said, I try not to let the blanket statements get to me, because I have been all too willing to mouth them myself on many occasions in the past. My favorite target was California, and I thought it would be fine if the big one struck and slid the whole state into the ocean (figuratively speaking, of course)

I have had the privilege of discoursing with many bright, staunchly conservative and patriotic Freepers from California over the years, and...I don’t use those types of blanket statements any more. I know how much they hurt, being lumped in with libtards from these regions.

I do keep in mind that liberalism is a cancer that is found in all states in the union, albeit in varying amounts. But it is there. And you can get liberal legislative and nanny state lunacy from even the most conservative states. People should keep in mind that state borders do not protect you from that cancer.

Liberalism is a relentless one-way ratchet. Once you begin losing ground to it, it is exceedingly difficult to get it back.

That said, this New England fan has no problem with Tim Tebow coming to Foxborough.

I suspect he will do whatever he is asked to do, and the circus won’t be able to get a foothold, no matter how hard they try.

I can see that infuriatingly deadpan Belichick face at the first press conference, and hear that boring, monotone reply: “We do what is best for the team. All players will contribute as we ask them to...blah...blah...blah...blah...blah...”

It will actually be kind of funny. And the reporters will simply stop asking him questions about it. I guarantee it.

you do know that my wife is from Quincy MA and I lived there for years with her right?

MA is a liberal socialist hell hole, one of the most liberal states in the union and not one county is republican.

We might not be perfect but It’s a damn sight better than in MA and yea I have lived both and wife is from there.
