Are is it just typical "neo-liberal" pots calling the kettle black?

Andy! Welcome back.
Sorry, I'm not sure I understand your question.
There's obviously PLENTY of "pot/kettle" calling in this forum, lol.
I prefer not to "question" anyone's religion or spiritual beliefs. We're all entitled to our own beliefs.
Where I draw the line is when "witnessing" turns into "harassment."
I might post or discuss my spiritual beliefs, but I'm not going to get up in someone's personal space physically and insult them. There's no justification for that.
My latest blog posting kinda deals with this.

I am sure you would call me a "neo-Liberal", and I could care less. The fact is the only time I would question any ones religion is when they talk-the-talk but don't walk-the-walk. By the way, I am a Liberal Christian and have NO doubts about my beliefs.

What is a neo-liberal? Please offer a link where we can read what or who they are? The liberals I know are far more religious than the cons I know. I don't know everyone's political views but for the ones I do that is the way it sorts out. But typical of some cons they make generalizations thinking everybody is the same.

if your religious beliefs infringe on my rights...aren't your beliefs (which are not based in a fact, but are faith in something you can't see) intruding upon my freedoms to have my own beliefs? I really don't care if you believe in space monkeys, if you try to put your beliefs into the system we all live under you are just plain wrong....and that's is what is happpening....Do your beliefs require you to transform others?
Yes I am against you attempting to make me follow your religious rules...Liberals are just protecting themselves from Christian extremists
Your term "neo-Liberal" to me means Neo-Con, since they are the same group that left the Democratic party some years back

As a liberal, I do not care one iota what religion you practice, as long as you are not proselytizing on my doorstep or in my legislative bodies. My beliefs are my own, and surprisingly, not much different than yours, probably.
And by the way, can you ask a civil question without name calling? Or is it just typical assertion of your ignorance to call people names when you have nothing more intelligent to say?

I am trying to figure out if this question even makes sense? What exactly are you trying to say? The liberals that mock your religion or religion in general are doing just that, mocking religion as whole. Saying there is no higher power, there are no gods, and most of them think religious believers are morons. Are they not entitled to their point of view as well, or is it only your way or the highway?

I question your religion based on the lack of any evidence it's true, plus the hypocritical way you don't follow what you profess to believe in.
I have no religion because there is no evidence of any god or gods, and strangely enough to "true believers" like you I don't completely discount them - I know the probability of it being true is vanishingly small. If you wish to call a rational approach to the lack of evidence doubt, be my guest. You're just fooling yourself - again.

Neo-liberals are people who believe in free-market economics. George Bush and Dick Cheney are neo-liberals.
Religion doesn't have anything to do with neo-liberalism.

I don't question anyone's religion. They should be free to practice any religion they want to, as long as it doesn't interfere with the rights of others to do the same.
If you want an example of hypocrisy, look at the guy in the flight suit on the deck of a carrier with the "Mission Accomplished" banner in the background.

usually liberals like to question everything... including your and their beliefs...
conservatives usually seem to be very afraid to look at their own beliefs... as your question pretty much implies... and they yell traitor, heretic or what ever slur happens to fit the situation whenever someone starts asking a couple of questions...
asking a question about your religion... doesn't mean they are secure in their own... it just means they are questioning... nothing more...
