Do I believe every word of the Bible? Yes, by faith.

Another nutter? Romney, Huckabee and now Hunter? Stick a fork in them they are done.

The reason why may surprise you. "Christians" would rather stick it to a fellow "Christian" who doesn't believe the same way they do, than support someone who has 99% of the same beliefs.

Remember: freedom of religion, not freedom from religion. Duncan Hunter may worship as he pleases.

That’s just self evidently wrong. Christians don’t stay home when their choice of candidates don’t included memebers of their particular denominations.

I have no idea what you are talking about.. Are you suggesting that by answering a persons question about what you believe or don’t believe is somehow an “insult” to someone who does not share the same faith?

If that is what you are saying you have fallen off the deep end my friend... if not please clarify.

I had a great conversation with a devout muslim the other day, he was sharing with me about the “Holy Days” that are upon us, and the fact that many muslims will being their “Haj” very soon.. I listened to him, and thanked him for sharing with me why these days are so important to him..... and then he listened to me as I shared about my faith..... I gave him my copy of the Koran (english/arabic)... I told him that I got it before I deployed to Iraq so that I could look up any references that folks made to ensure that they were not misquoting... At the same time this gentleman signed a Bible and gave it to me, and in the note he called me “Brother” because we share a desire for a safe and prosperous Iraq..

I'd correct that to say that only spiritually (and in many cases, emotionally) immature Christians will be found exhibiting such pharisical behavior.

That they seem to be in the majority is a shame.
