    Liberalism generally looks down upon religion, unless of course they can use it to achieve a political end (are you listening San Fran Nan?). The rejection of God as your center (I did not say Jesus because Jews are included) leads to moral corruption and relativism. Moral relativism forms the bedrock of modern liberal thought. There is no right or wrong, no black and white, only shades of relativist gray. Oral sex in the Oval Office with a young intern is not really adultery because it does not include actually copulation. God forbid we should execute murderers on death row, but it's perfectly acceptable to kill a totally innocent baby in the womb. After all, an unborn baby isn't REALLY a person, is it?

    • craigly, on 10/06/2008, -0/+1Wow, it blows my mind that people need to be warned about people like me. My Christian faith is a faith of love.

    • craigly, on 10/06/2008, -0/+2There's nothing wrong with logic and logic is not anti-Christian at all. Some of the world's finest thinkers are/were Christian.

    Pope rapes kids :)
