I am so tired of Christianity being treated as a dirty word. For me, it's about faith in something larger than myself.
I am pro-choice. I am pro-gay marriage. I am tolerant of other faiths. I am tolerant of Atheist beliefs. I don't need to denigrate their beliefs to boost my own.
I am sick to death of the slams against my beliefs and the constant dredging up of examples of fundamentalism to support non-believers postions. Many of whom, bend over backwards to explain that fundamentalist Isalm isn't indicitive of the majority of the practitioners. I am sick of the snarky comments elicited by those who offer prayers to others.
When was the last time you saw a Christian start a thread denigrating Atheists? Never. But the reverse is constant.
If we're serious about being a 'big tent' party, we need to become more tolerant of our religious members. The hypocrisy around how Christianity is viewed on this board is nothing short of astounding.
