Subject: RE: BS: GB and the Rise of Christian Fascism..
My exact sentiments, harvey.
America has become like some scarey movie where the aliens have taken off about 10% of the people and replaced tham with folks that look just like the ones they took off, 'cept the replacements are steeped to the gills in dogmatism and intolerance.
I saw it coming in the 60's when the church I grew up in split down the middle over Vietnam. Unfortunately, the folks who held the churches were the pro-war folks so many Christains just fled. It was a terrible thing to witness. My family got caught up in in and, my father an elder in the church, and my mother a peace activist, quit the church. My story isn't that different from millions of others who no longer felt comfortable around these so-called Christains...
I am still very leary of many folks who profess to be Christain until I find out if they are one of the aliens or real Christains.
BTW, I consider myself to be one of the real Christains, or follower of Christ. I believe in tolerance, and love, and forgiveness, and of salvation.
But I am very concerned about these *brownshirt* Christians......
