To the left, He said
I get accused sometimes of lumping all Christians together as red state hypocrites and I will admit that my experience with the religious tend to border on nightmare-inducing. Not being a Church person myself, I have a hard time identifying with people who put all their faith eggs in one basket, so to speak, and use that basket to beat me over the head with their beliefs.
That said, I am told that there are those out there who go to church and aren't hypocrites. And I honestly believe that is true. Once I get through the hazy fog of my anger at the several million bad apples that stink up the bushel, I feel bad for the normal Christians. The ones that live their lives as good people and just want to make a positive impact on the word. That is certainly made harder by the Religious Right hijacking Christianity, supposedly owning the patent for values and morals.
I honestly think the Christians on the Left are probably the most important people for the upcoming battles against the zealots. They are going to have to be the ones to speak for The Left if we are going to bring back some of the voters from the Repugs. Moderate Christians that voted for Bush because they felt like they had no choice, that He was the Jesus candidate, will never ever listen to a heathen like me when it comes to politics. It's the rational Christians on the Left who have a chance to make an impact.
So, good liberal Christians, if you are out there, please, do your part. Buy some stuff from these nice people:
Christianity has been hijacked by those who stand for preemptive war, the death penalty, social Darwinism, and tax cuts for billionaires. Now is our chance to fight back and let the world know that there are many Christians who believe our faith stands for the poor, the powerless, and (dare I say) non-Americans. Here is your way of taking a stand against the Religious Right and their anti-Christian agenda.
