Don't do this.
This fight over judges is a fight for all Americans against activist liberal justices, This is not just a fight for fundamentalist Christians.
You turn this solely into a Religious right issue, we will lose big time.
An activist liberal judge is a very religious person. To claim he or she is not is to not know how they live day to day, or choose to ignore it if they do know about it. Secular humanism is the fastest growing religion today in the USA. And they voted overwhelmingly, like more than 80 percent, for democrats.
I am a son of a not famous 'activist liberal'. I watched her and her peers during the sixties do many things and say many things.
But it is only after I became a follower of Christ that she got utterly outraged with me. Why? Competition. What was not openly discussed was that the leftist tradition is flat out steeped in a culture of sacrifice ... denying yourself certain things in the name of something bigger than yourself.
You fail to recognize the fight over judges if you are unwilling to know about what they say in the privacy of their wine and cheese shin digs about 'people' and the purpose of people. What they say about 'careers', what they say about animals even.
I promise you: the left is not irreligious. They have a faith, a liturgy ... and the number one thing they fear is faith which competes effectively with theirs.
But, qam1, I am willing to admit I'm misguided in the face of new evidence. This 'religious right folks are toxic to the GOP' argument I have heard many times. Especially from hard core evolutionists who loudly proclaim the GOP is great, but that Creationist Christians will be its downfall unless they are checked.
Interestingly, I have yet to see someone put together three links to political journal articles which thoughtfully and reasonably provide the evidence that the Christians in the GOP are driving fence sitters into the arms of leftists. That explains how the GOP profits and the democrats suffer if the godful GOPers and the godless GOPers both agree that shutting up about God and Christ. Knowing that Christians vote GOP overwhelmingly, why is it a bad thing that we reach out to fence sitters and introduce them to Christ?
Do you have any links which address these points?
The Constitution of the US is based on Judeo-Christian Values.
The only way we will lose if we go your way the cowards way and ignore our Judeo-Christian heritage!
