Just one of millions.

I don't think anything is nuttier in our society today than Republican Christians. It's an oxymoron. In the Bible, Jesus taught us to love your neighbor, give up your wealth, feed the hungry, aid the sick, be a good Samaritan, judge not lest ye be judged, turn the other cheek, and all kinds of other admonitions that Republicans completely ignore. Yet they still proclaim themselves Christians and sit sanctimoniously in their pews planning their next attack on President Obama or reviewing their fury on any hungry family dependent on food stamps. How they can possibly believe that Christ would approve of their selfish and greedy behavior? I think Jesus on meeting pathetic frauds as Tony Perkins would be as offended as if he met King Herod. Perkins like so many other faux Christians has no interest at all in sacrifice, charity, patriotism and buying one less thousand dollar suit so that he can help some starving family. His program is hate. Hate for gays, hate for Muslims, hate for anyone who doesn't buy into his uptight, and probably closeted, morality. There are things you can be sure of in the world today. Couch potatoes can't be Olympic stars. Illiterates can't be proofreaders. And Republicans cant all be Christians.
