If you think that analogy is over the top, consider a conversation my kid had at school last week. They were discussing the election, and the other child said, “Kerry’s for queers.” She also informed my daughter that “God kills queers.”

This article made its way to my local newspaper in PA.

Get Involved!

Priority 1: Remove Specter from Judiciary (Day 6)

Urgent!  Committee Assignments are being made THIS WEEK!  There are spots on the Judiciary Committee to be assigned.  Tell Sen. Frist and Sen Kyl we need Conservative members on the Judiciary and NO Arlen Specter!

Specter's in line for Chairman, but it can be Challenged!  It has happened in the past.  Moderate Lugar challenged the Great Jesse Helms for Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.  A Challenger will have to come forward with the GOP members of the Judicial Committee meet on November 17th!  We need to find a member with the Courage to Challenge.

Here’s the problem: RELIGIOUS LIBERALS don’t wear their faith on their sleeves. We don’t evangelize;

"... and, most importantly: WE DON'T REALLY EXIST -- !" :)

"We don’t evangelize; we consider it disrespectful to shove our spiritual views down other people’s throats."

Says he from the Cult of the Bloody Fetus.

While it is true that leftists who pretend to be Christians don't evangelize in the proper sense of the term - i.e. they don't preach the gospel, they certainly do "evangelize" for socialism.

I'll just point out that someone who claims to be Christian and also claims not to evangelize is simply a liar.

They have the Supreme Court to do that for them.

I know bunches of people who take their faith very seriously and shudder at the works of George Bush: the WARMONGERING, the DISREPECT FOR THE POOR and the WEAK, the ARROGANCE. Here’s the problem: RELIGIOUS LIBERALS don’t wear their faith on their sleeves. We don’t evangelize; we consider it disrespectful to shove our spiritual views down other people’s throats.

Liberals have no problem shoving their left-wing agendas down peoples throats: Gay marriage (Has no religious basis), abortion (has no religious basis), over taxation (has no religious basis) etc... How will the religious left be able to evangelize these stances that are absolutely contrary to anyone of faith?

Liberalism IS their religion! It trumps real religion... how else to explain Kerry's tortured answers on abortion?
Do hope they start spitting and screaming about charity and love, though...that'll really be convincing!

I do believe that we are exhorted to spread the gospel. Some of us are better at it than others (I am sadly lacking)

Wow! That was really over the top. Liberals too nice? Now that's an interesting assertion. Like Michael Moore's problem, along with all the shrill left, was that he was just too kind in his attack on Bush.

Right.

As soon as GWB won re-election religious groups have been deamonized by the left for their support. I don't understand it.
