Discussion of presidential candidate’s worldview, moved to Religion.
A mistake — unless all discussions of political philosophy and its influences should be moved to Religion.
Never mind - I see it was moved here by the religion moderator. Strange.
Is the religion forum really a place for attacking other people's religions? Is that what it's really for? If so, then I don't know why the religion forum exists as it serves to cause division among FReepers instead of promoting mutual respect and focusing upon or similarities and common goals. This kind of article is a disgrace and is a disservice to this conservative forum. Shouldn't we stick to faith-promoting articles and not faith-disparaging attacks? Isn't that what the religion forum should be about? Not this offensive and divisive stuff.
I've been involved in conservative and Republican politics for some time and I know that some of the people that I've worked alongside on various campaigns have had trouble with some of the beliefs of my Church. But they had the good sense to keep it to themselves in order to support and not detract from our common goals. Free Republic has clearly defined conservative goals. Shouldn't we be expected to be respectful of each other's religious beliefs in order to support and promote those goals?
