This is for jar in particular and rahvin and a few others who thought my definition of Christianity rather peculiar. The following video describes what Christianity is all about and not what the bible has to say about little details of morality and different behaviors that people seem to focus on here and imply that if you do these behaviors, you cannot be Christian:

Perhaps you don't understand my position if you think that I do not understand that Christianity has been if not the most horrific, genocidal movement in all of history it is certainly in contention for that honor. Real Christians are very often very, very bad, evil, nasty people.

But in my my Chapter of Club Christian it is those little details of morality that are important. As my momma used to say, it ain't what you claim to believe that's important, it's what you do.

I have never said nor do I doubt that you are a real Christian.

Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

Is it hyperbole

Is it hyperbole?

So when a Conservative Christian here at FPN suggested that I should be taken out and shot as a traitor to Christianity is there any reason to be surprised when many folk see the Christian Right as one of the greatest human threats existing today?

Re: Ann's hyperbole / what is treachery

It is hard to prove but any true conservative who has thought long and hard about these issues will know in their gut that you are absolutely right.

And that is a great summation of the problem; the fact that you claim there are true conservatives is where thinking stops.

Re: scale and location

If some one is strongly opposed to abortion, don't they have the capability to just not get an abortion?

Re: scale and location

Not really. Abortion has NOTHING to do with Conservative. It is completely a restricted religious issue. What's so funny is the same religious groups that worked to decriminalize abortion in the US are the same ones that are trying to criminalize it today.
