I do not believe that the founders expected us to impose our particular religious view on others. We have the right to worship or not worship according to the dictates of our own consciences. However, the GOP as currently constituted believes that it their duty to impose “Judeo Christian” values (as they interpret them) on everyone. One of the reasons the GOP has been losing elections is exactly that, people view them as doctrinaire and unbending and quite frankly a bunch of busy bodies. We can’t do the real work of gov’t like balancing the budget, reforming taxes, fixing Soc Sec, or fighting a war but the GOP has time to pander for fundamentalist votes. Sorry my view and I’m entitled
BS!
Republicans have never tried to force their religious views on anyone, unlike liberals who seem to think that God is the enemy of the country and have been trying their damnedest, right along with the ACLU to drive religion out of every aspect of American life.
Maybe you should read exactly what the Founding Fathers wanted for this country and what their views on ‘Judeo/Christian’ religon really are, instead of just spouting off total nonsense.
You may be entitled to ‘your view’ but you’ve proven it’s wrong with every word you typed.
“However, the GOP as currently constituted believes that it their duty to impose “Judeo Christian” values (as they interpret them) on everyone.”
Dang, that sounds like it’s right out of the WashCompost. Is this the same GOP that’s establishment is currently behind Giuliani who supports abortion, extragay rights, restrictions on guns and open borders?
And what to you say to the socialists who want to police every one of your actions, thoughts, statements, and beliefs about race, gender, and sexual minorities? The “thought police” are your real enemies, not us.
I could care less what you do or believe, but I’m tired of being accused of trying to set up some Christian dictatorship. People of faith, most of them, would carry you on their backs. You have created a “straw man,” and a very dangerous one. You are shooting at rabbits out your front window while the ravenous wolves are right behind you.
I don’t know what libertine values you practice or want to promote, but if you are tired of transfers of wealth to parasites, assaults on your freedoms, a top down system of intrusive government, and a lack of societal common sense, we are your friends.
I never said that. I said the Founders created America and based the documents that govern her on Judeo-Christian laws. Laws that go back to the beginning of both the Jewish and Christian religions. Those are well accepted facts. People who don't accept them are outside the American mainstream.
Entitled, yes. But a POV based on false allegations such as "the GOP as currently constituted believes that it their duty to impose “Judeo Christian” values" *and* "One of the reasons the GOP has been losing elections is exactly that" is a bunch of MSM hooey.
