This was our crazy bible thumping preacher:
She was such a Ned Flanders wannabe that she gave her kids really obscure biblical names, such as Piper and Trig.
“i’d rather be a GOD conservative, low-brow and a real person than a liberal RINO Elitist Republican anyday.”
You’ve missed the point....many are neither. There is a very big middle group that don’t want the face of the party to be some crazy bible thumping preacher. One can share moral values...without sharing your religious zeal.
If one must pick between conservative christians and people who call others “crazy bible thumping preacher[s]”, the choice is pretty easy.
Most in middle America are God-fearing, “red neck”, good-ole people (of all races). These genuine Americans make up the bed-rock of the Republican Party (the elitists forget this at their peril).
And NO I woulnd’t mind GOD being the face of the Republican Party if it was a preacher that believed (or supported) the issues I do while in office, but I wouldn’t mind a non-preacher as the face of the Republican Party if they also believed (supported issues I believe in) while in Political office, also..!
Sure, but I'm starting to think that religious conservatives in the party can't have it any other way.
They all seem to think the Republican party is their Church. And they've now got to kick out the apostates and infidels.
I keep hearing that, but am having a hard time believing we have a more moral and just society as a result.
You will either share the Christian zeal, or the Muslim zeal, take your pick.
