Personally, I'm a Christian that is tired of the "religious right" dictating how and what I should believe. I'm tired of the church pushing politics. I'm tired of other "christians" that argue with anger and push a religion they know very little about. I'm tired of non-believers pushing thier religion by telling me I'm brainwashed or somehow less intelligent because I believe in a higher power. I was baited into a discussion today about religion and was told I was "Godless" because I didn't agree with some republican veiwpoints. For some reason, in the area I live, if I agree with a republican -I am a right wing religious fundamentalist. If I agree with a democrat, I am an unpatriotic left wing liberal. I'm not sure why or when being a Christian liberal became an oxymoron. I believe in civil liberties -so that makes me a liberal, and I believe in God - so I'm a neo-conservative. I know some responses will be insults, but I needed to vent. Is anyone else tired of politics and religion?
