I'm both a Christian and a conservative. I'm tired of being generalized and lumped in with a small portion of right-wing extremists. That line of thinking makes you guilty of some of the same things you accuse the "christian conservatives" of. I'm talking about fear-mongering, stereotyping and witch hunting. Wake up and smell reality; fractional portions of society recieve the most attention because they are DIFFERENT. For example: right-wing christian extremists, left-wing environmentalists, muslim sects (sunni etc.) associated with terrorism... the list goes on and on. These are merely recent examples; look back at history and note that those who's opinions and standards are different from whats generally accepted stand out.
I'll stop myself from rambling now, but my point is this: Lumping Christians together as "the new evil" is just as bad if not worse than what some extreme examples of Christians are doing today. |

And RIP. I hope society never forgets.
