Reply #19: OK I plead Ignorance - When I think of [View All]

[Wisc Badger]

the "People For The American Way" I automatically think of an anti religious organization.

I go to General Baptist Convention church and I have found much solace and peace with my faith over the years, for me personally I have felt God's hand in helping me in times of severe trial.

I have seen my church help others in need, such as a wife who need protection from a battering husband, or several others who found (at least at the time) that life was no longer bearable and were considering doing something permanent about it (such as me).

Yes they preach that Jesus is the answer to mans sins, but not in such a obscene way as more strident Church's do.

I have seen my church help feed, cloth, and move the needy when necessary.

The rhetoric I associate with People for the American Way, makes me feel like I am some sort of a fascist unforgiving organization and I have seen my church in action and it simply not that way.

My pastors did no political preaching in any form during the recent election cycle. They feel they are here to serve GOD and to leave political leanings to individuals in front of the Lord. The Deacons of the church are the same way.

Oh well I guess I got off topic.

Bear with me, I am a recovering Republican (I would be a poster child for Thomas Franks book).

Thank You all.
