Don't fool yourself. There's a lot of them out there. I think they're misguided, but for the most part, they haven't completely bought the dem line. They would like to reform the dems from within, I think. Their biggest difference with conservative Christians is that they think globally rather than individually. Even in their theology. Social justice is a huge issue for them. Most of them are our brothers and sisters. We need to treat them as such even if we don't agree with them

Anyone who subscribes to the Democratic Party line of thinking is automatically disqualified as a "Christian" in many churches. I think it may fall on the definition of the word "Christian". A follower of Christ would not accept abortion, partial birth abortion, homosexual marriages or any other item of the liberal agenda.

I agree with you. Some of them are sincere. To some degree, Catholic Church also has ideal about social justice that is many Democrats share, as well as anti death-penalty. They're, however, also against things that most Democrats embrace, such as abortion, gay marriage, freedom from religion, and so on. These things really turn them off (and Christians in general) that at the end they prefer Republican.

They don't think globally or they wouldn't align themselves with those who are bent on destroying this country.

Maybe the think they can "save" the ones within their party before it's too late.

Just like the beaten wife who keeps giving the abuser spouse chance after chance until the union is finally severed because the predator either kills her or almost kills her. DEM Christians need to understand that there was only one martyr.

I will fight them with every breath in my body before I will let them martyr my country.

I agree with you. It drives many of my politically liberal Christian friends crazy that I won't argue whether or not Jesus was a liberal or a conservative. He was all of those things. But His mission was personal, not political/public policy. Those are just the petty projects of man.

I still love them, even if they are really politically messed up. ; )
