You are trying to substantiate your argument with an anti-"Christian
Conservative" website? You're right! I did LOL. Pssst. Hey, NOYB, just between you and I, I think that website is trying to explore the entire assortment of Christian perspectives on issues. (Tough concept for a lot of folks who sincerely believe their only private understanding is the only one that could possibly be valid, or Christian.) Does the introduction of ideas not in lock-step with your own perceptions somehow threaten conservative Christianity? Why? If you're so absolutely right, you have nothing to fear. Plus, we're talking a matter of constitutional law, not religion. I only used the graph from that website because it seemed to illustrate our opposite positions so clearly. ******** MIssion statement from your "anti- conservative Christian" website: Points of concern: It is our policy to compare and contrast the beliefs and practices of very conservative with very liberal Christians. Most North American Christians belong to either a mainline denomination or the Roman Catholic Church. Their own faith group may teach some beliefs similar to the conservative wing of Christianity. Some beliefs are similar to that of the liberal wing. Some beliefs are intermediate between the two. We feel that it is important for persons of all faith groups (Christian and non-Christian) to understand the great diversity of Christian beliefs -- both among denominations today and throughout history. Many Christians are aware of their own denomination's current beliefs, but are unfamiliar with the history of those beliefs, or of the teachings of other denominations. ************** Doesn't sound anti-conservative to me. Sounds like a group of folks more interested in finding the truth than following a dogma. |
