...with Liberty and Justice for Christians
A Christian can't be both Christian and Liberal
Let's dissect this for a moment. Bill is restricted when Hillary is in town; sexually speaking, I'm assuming. When Hillary is in town, Bill's philandering must come to a halt. Because Hillary is an overbearing harpy? No, because she's his wife -- who has a certain say in these things, as all S.O.'s do. So, the message is that the husband (Bill) can't play around and get his winky whacked by someone other than his wife when his wife (Hillary) is around. But the tone of the statement. Oh, the tone. It's as if every husband should resent his wife for not allowing him to indulge, with someone else, every sexual urge he may have. Not a very respectful sentiment, especially coming from someone who professes to be a Christian conservative espousing the values of the traditional family. Or maybe I've misunderstood the values of the traditional family. Perhaps it really does mean that the man is in charge, gets to lie and cheat, and the woman stays home to cook and clean and raise the kids and take the philandering with a nice big smile....he would be more restricted than Bill when Hillary's in town.
Yes, if the Christophobic thugs had it their way, Christians would be relegated to a marginalized spiritual ghetto on the sidelines of life.Hey, that's me! He's talking about me! What a grand feeling it is to have my views acknowledged! *ahem* Yes, right then. Moving along.
For the naïve Christian voter who thinks he can toss a ballot in the Nuevo (wouldn't nouveau be more fitting here? I mean, sure, they both mean the same thing, but isn't it the French we really hate?) liberal direction, please know that a vote toward the secular left could leave you bereft of sacred liberties.For example? No more writ of habeas corpus. No more attorney-client privilege. No more requirement for probable cause. No more privacy. Oh, wait...those are the liberties that were lost when a nut-job Reich Wing administration took over. Let's see which liberties are the "sacred" ones we can't afford to lose under liberal lawmakers.
1. Christianity to be scrubbed from government and whatever turf the government owns.Actually, there is no right to have Christianity chiseled into American government. What he's implying (that government bear the stamp of Christianity) doesn't describe liberty, it describes theocracy.
2. Secularism to be continually mainlined into our public school system.In as much as it's a PUBLIC school system and not a parochial one, secularism is entirely apropos. Once again, more sentimental of theocracy than liberty.
3. Public officials, employees and appointees to be pressured to hide their faith in the closet and suppress their public displays of belief in God lest they be grouped with Hitler, Osama, or Mussolini and then fired.That actually would be a loss of liberty. Of course, it's pure crap. No one is (or would be) required to suppress their public displays of belief except when said belief begins to influence policy. In other words, believe what you want and behave accordingly, just don't try to force others to do the same. As to lumping people in with totalitarians and extremists, it seems that's a page right out of the conservative play book a la Saxby Chambliss vs. Max Cleland.
4. Public attacks on churches and Christians and attempts to restrict them in the private sector.WTF? Which part of left field (oh, sorry...I guess that would be right field) did this come from? Just another staple of the Conservative Reich: fear mongering.
5. The continued media endorsement of the same putrid hedonistic stuff that sunk ancient Rome. Yes, with the liberals in place, expect more weird crap in movies and on television.Since when does the election of liberals have any direct link to the preferences of Hollywood producers? Besides...weird crap is what movies and television are all about! Just ask Mel Gibson.
Expect to see more paintings of Christian symbols/ saints smeared with elephant dung.Yeah, baby! Sorry. To paraphrase Larry Flynt, "The first amendment doesn't protect the speech we love, it protects the speech we hate". Just another liberty that this nut-job would repeal under a Christian theocracy.
Expect Christianity to be bashed and vilified and Christians made out to be buckled-shoed morons with three teeth and an IQ of 50.You mean they're not?! =)
Expect your kids to continue to be exposed to things that only rock stars see backstage with groupies.Now wait just a gall-darn minute! Christian kids shouldn't be exposed to things that only rock stars see backstage with groupies! We all should be exposed to what only rock stars see backstage with groupies!
My ClashPoint is this: Modern liberalism tosses the scripture out on several different levels.Heh-heh...so did Jesus, you nut. He threw out the scripture of his day. In fact, he was the modern liberal of his day. I guess only liberals who are a couple of millennia behind our time warrant any respect.
Secular liberalism's aggressive desire to eradicate Christians' rights should cause Christians to be concerned.I think he means Christian's perceived rights. True progressives and liberals fight for the rights of all, which is why conservatives and liberals often butt heads. Liberals aim to defend the rights of those whose are trampled by Christians. Christians don't have the right to be the sole religion. Christians don't have the right to force their morality on everyone through legislative fiat. Christians don't have the right to preferential treatment.
