Christians trying to use science or logic is like
Dick Cheney trying to describe jungle combat in South East Asia.

1. Neocons trying to mix myth with fear and presenting it as
an intellectual paper, opinion, column.

2. It seems to me they're trying to present science as just another
"belief system."

3. I do hope you're referring to Fundamentalist Republican
wingnut Christians.

5. Yep
I wore my Kerry button to church during the campaign, and discovered I go to church with a buncha Democrats. I had assumed otherwise, living smack dab in the middle of Sensenbrenner in a fairly affluent suburb area and all. So I was alittle apprehensive. But I'd promised myself I wasn't going to keep taking the button off and putting it back on when I thought I was going to get some flak somewhere.

To my surprise and delight, the ratio of "good man" to "I don't know about that guy" was about 10 to 1. I appreciated finding that out.

So yeah, there is more than that kind of Christian. And I, for one, will not let the other side own God. I disagree with Bill Mahler on that one. I will not concede the point to them. I'm sick of being made to feel like a second-hand Christian because I'm not a Republican and don't follow people such as Pat Robertson or James Dobson.
