They hated it before anyone had seen it. They hate it because it is a Christian piece, and they equate Christianity with the right.

30 years ago many liberals were Christian. Today the bulk of them are secular. The old mainline churches have been hemorrhaging membership and are a pale shadow of their former self. Liberal denominations have lost ground and liberals have lost their former high regard for faith. We've come a long way from the time when Martin Luther King, Jr. could quote effortlessly from the Bible and talk to America in the language of Isaiah and Jesus. Today, that would be regarded as a violation of separation and state. Liberals have more or less lost the capacity to talk to people of faith without sounding arrogant and condescending.

Absolutely right. When we were in line today, everyone was a complete stranger, yet we started chatting like old friends. Guess that's because we were all 'wacky right-wing Christian fanatics'.
