When Liberals call themselves Christians and at the same time kill babies, they are only putting their God second.


Not buying the Christian In Name Only crap from Democrats.

That's very generous of you, rayne.

I'm trying to be, actually. Sort of self-censoring...but also trying to give him the benefit of the doubt. I have my moments.

I think the assertion that the left doesn't believe in hell is an assertion that no one on the left is a Christian. And that, in the case of this poster, is clearly a slam.

There are many, many liberals who are Christian. I suspect that many of those nuns currently embattled with the Pope over their roles are liberals. And one certainly wouldn't suggest that nuns aren't Christian.

Yes, it was definitely a religiously-based insinuation. But again, there is nothing they won't harp on to perpetuate the "us vs. them" theme.

It sounds like you live in a world where there aren't any Christians at all.

Because if Christians have to believe this and believe that, and do this and do that, eventually no one comes up to snuff.

Exclusivity is not a Christian value. Christ would shake his head at you.

Well what on earth do you do when confronted with a Pro-Choice, Christian Republican?

Your head must positively explode.

I find that condemning women just because they happen to not agree with your pet cause is over the top.

Rape is horrible - but saying that one should go to hell just because they think that classifying it officially as a war crime would be mere symbolism is rather an extreme position, IMO.

Besides - i don't think that their were many detractors in the first place.

I think characterizing the defense of women around the world from brutal rape, mutilation, starvation and death as a "pet cause" is over the top.

She is "pro-choice" right? That means she thinks that people should have the right to choose to kill a baby.

Those who don't think that killing babies should be encouraged are known as being pro-life.

Why anyone wouldn't want to be pro-life is beyond me.

You literalists will be the death of us all...

Saying "special place in hell" is a statement of admonishment and exasperation, not actually condemning women to hell.

Or can you not tell the difference?

Couldn't she have just said something like - "I think that we should do all that we can to assist the victims of rape and I hope that I have your support"?
