[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here.[b] I guess a problem I have with the "how Jesus saw things" attitude is [/b]that this should have nothing to do with what the government does or does not implement. Take Jesus' example as moral instruction for your personal life, but people choosing to donate to the poor (for example) and being mandated to do so by the government are entirely different things. By the same token, marriage between homosexuals should be legal, because even if you believe it is morally wrong according to the Bible (I don't), that has NOTHING to do with what the government should be dictating or "allowing."[/quote]

Agreed.  But my issue is that the conservatives are such hypocrites.  They are all big on Christianity - but they don't want to treat people according to their own supposed Christian values. They insist on prayer in school and a manger scene at the town hall, but heaven forbid we actually treat a fellow citizen with Christian charity.  [/quote]

Well, you need to bone up on Conservative christianity.  They got rid of the "works" requirement a while ago.  All you need to be "saved" is to accept Jesus Christ in your heart.  You don't actually have to give a fuck about anyone else, or actually behave in a Christian manner.  It's the perfect post-Goldwater solution to the problem of how to be religious while also being a judgmental, self-absorbed douche-bag.[/quote] if you accept it and mean it...(tim tebow)...you will be attacked.[/quote]
