Pirkster, you literally just did what you are rallying against.  You completely came at it from one point of view, your own.  You did not criticize anything that Republicans/Tea Party do.  You get support from jagibelieve, no surprise, who rarely backs anything that he says up with substance, just talking points.  If we are going to move forward as a Country we have to come together and stop pointing fingers.  Stop justifying our own beliefs and consider why someone else would think differently.  They compare religion and politics because posts like yours back it up.  I'm right, your wrong and I'll stick my fingers in my ears and yell La-la-la-la-la because I'm too busy trying to prove why I'm correct instead of considering things that counter my perspective/beliefs.  Religion in a nutshell.
