ok, you got me. I was assuming the next post was for me, but I guess since I am the only one online right now, that was not the case. haha..

Well after looking at the poll and the authors and co-authors of this article I have to admit this is a typical anti-religion and anti-christian attack on people who espouse a belief in god. Very liberal and also very convenient. It's no surprise people in our university system are so liberal, it has always been that way. Anyway, it's amusing to watch as they try to morph Jesus, the son of god, into a socialist humanist anti-war drug-loving rainbows and butterflies peacenik. Who no doubt would be a liberal these days - which is the convenient part. On and on we go into the political sh**storm. If one is not a liberal or a democrat then one must be a bad guy.

Eat your liberal news kids, it's good for you!

Btw, Luke 22 35-38 explains what Jesus feels about gun control. When jesus told us to turn the other cheek when slapped, he wasn't talking about being a wimp or not acting in self-defence. He was, get this, actually talking about a slap to the face!!! Which means if someone tries to shoot you, you have a right to protect yourself because the person isn't trying to slap you. Personally, I think jesus was telling us to use your head in a given situation and be merciful and humble.

But if you refuse what i offer and want the liberal stuff, please do so. I am not your dad.

It says at the top of my post that I was replying to "Adjensen".

I'm very confused to what you're trying to say.

To be honest, a true christian wouldn't even support a politician.

You are imposing your own cultural views on to Christianity. Not every person, much less every Christian believes all politicians are evil!
