Well, looking at polling data and voting patterns, better than half of the Catholic population is apostate as well. We can’t expect non-Christians to be able to make a distinction between the two if we don’t ourselves.

I look at that sea of red in Missouri and have hope that McCaskill will be ousted, despite the efforts of certain Republicans to undermine or even destroy her opponent.

I look at that sea of red and know where the startling numbers turning out for CFA day can be primarily attributed, even in largely liberal states. Look at California. There’s a large red coastal county right by the Bay Area.

Heck, look at Utah.

I look at that map and know why Sarah Palin had such an upwelling of support in 2008, too. All other criticisms aside, she spoke their language and walked the walk.

I wouldn't argue with that. I think the number of observant trinitarian believers, of all stripes, has steadily dropped over the last 100 years across this country.

You make an awesome point. Thank you!

my drawing line is support of abortion -- anyone who openly supports this can't be Christian. Yes, that's an absolute. If someone says that they don't want to comment, but won't support abortion, just not do anything, that's still bad, still bad Christian, but not as awful as one who would support killing of babies just to control the population
