Why the question mark after ‘fake church’? A church that carries out a homosexual marriage, is not a Christian church, because it is promoting an act the Bible SPECIFICALLY labels an abomination. Does this make sense to you?
Let me put it another way. A clothing store that does not sell clothing is not a clothing store, even if they call themselves one. Get it?
The conservative movement has people in leadership positions who are not conservatives... so what? We know that. We vote against them whenever we can, and we have toppled a lot of them in recent years.
You think if the libertarian party became a major party, all of its members would be pure, flawless libertarians? You simply fail to grasp the concept of a ‘politician’.
This is probably why there are so few libertarian politicians; it is a true ideology with core principles, whereas "conservative" is really nothing more than a buzzword.
When "conservative" politicians can get away with voting for non-stop foreign wars, SOPA, the NDAA, raising the debt limit, the Patriot Act, and continuing the Drug War, you don't really even have an ideology any longer.
I think we should bury the word conservative along with the GOP. It's a truly meaningless term, and even if you take it at its basic etymological definition, there's very little in American politics I'd like to "conserve".
That church is analogous to the GOP. They have their flock whom continue to follow the leadership, no matter how far outta skew from the teachings of the Bible.
How much easier it is to cast a blind eye than to strike out on ones principles to find another church/party that DOES follow the straight and narrow, let alone vocally denounce to everyone else how far they have strayed.
No. The old saying of ‘What is insanity’ still fits. In no way do I think all (L) of the same mold. Hell, I myself have a few qualms on their platform, but they have, at least to me, not only followed that platform but walked the walk when/where they have won. The GOP, you so wish to rebuild, does not even give the platitudes any longer.
