 I care about economy,jobs, fighting poverty etc. as the most important. I hate most of the social issues like family values and abortion and drugs and gay marriage because I think they are totally fake and I dont care to impose my values on other people. Im more worried about feeding people and putting a roof over their heads.Values never fed anybody.

Honestly, I know more than a few liberal Christians who also strongly beleive in the separation of church and state. They vote, they read and they work in their communities.
I know not all Christians are right wing wingnuts who want to impose their religious views on others but sometimes it's easy to get that impression. I eagerly await the posts of some of my board favorites here. |

If we insist
on making the distinction of left and right of liberal and conservative so be it :liberals are for people conservatives are for business allowing conservatives to rule the country is like letting the horse take the rider where the horse wants to go to fill his belly with green stuff But if this great nation of ours is for the people and by the people and of the people we must grab the reins again or lose our direction forevermore The direction we are being taken will certainly take us over the cliff or we can turn around and together climb the mountain |

Not religious nor any political party. But I think that things should start at home. Parents taking responsibility for thier action and their childrens also. A good spanking only hurts for a little bit, but the memory last a lifetime. Correct the laws for controlling children. And then we can move on to other problems in this country. Maybe then the country can be straitened out. Too many laws allowing to many groups the control over our lives. My PO.

In our age there is no such thing as 'keeping out of politics.' All issues are political issues, and politics itself is a mass of lies, evasions, folly, hatred and schizophrenia.

That's a line from an old song. Most people know the George Thorogood & The Destroyers version. |

OK, so be it....if that is what you want to be considered to be.....but I would never call someone a heathen in the terms that the 'norm' considers the word to be..... Lindyy
