Such “Christians” have a very weak understanding of their own righteousness (they have NONE, and NONE can be “earned” through works).

That, in a nutshell, is the basis of “liberalism” at least at the sheeperal, not the communist control-freak level - it’s a works-based righteousness model, and even worse, and more it’s a LAZY works-based righteousness model where you don’t actually sacrifice of yourself to do good works, but you force others to sacrifice of themselves to do good works to earn YOUR “righteousness”.

I agree with you, but am not sure why It came to me unless it was to express the point vs. a response to what I said.

A sore point I have with those who will eschew Romney and try to ensure Obama is re-elected due to their Christian principles is that if one wants to become a martyr, they can have at it - just consider that taking others down with them is more akin to suicide bombing than martyrdom. I liken it to the chickens getting ready to elect a new ruler of the roost. A fox is in charge and devouring the best they have, yet they do everything they can to demonize the chihuahua that's running against the fox. Both suck, but Romney sucks a bit less and Obama has already shown us that he has total disregard for the Constitution, the Law, and the People. At this time, the only way to effectively vote against Obama is to vote for Romney - voting for some righteous, pure as snow, conservative, none of whom can possibly pull a Murkowski, is a vote against Romney and for Obama.
